I owned a 1990 Passat 1.8 estate and 96 2.8 VR6 GL Estate. The VR6 was ace because it looked like the bog standard boring diesel estate - but it was faster than the smaller BMWs (318, 320, 323, 520 etc) -(at least until you came to a corner) the look on their faces :-)
It was childish and I don't do it anymore -I quit VWs because the dealers where I lived were awful and they were no more reliable than any other car.
I wish to ask for a '79 type 2 panel Van and '79 Polo to be taken into consideration as well m'lud.

On my way back from the post office last week I saw, pulling out of his drive, Jack Charlton in..... a Passat. A ringing endorsement if ever I saw one

DP,
'Audi A3 diesel is in VED band B. SEXY!',
I think you need therapy.
Perhaps a start would be to equip yourself with a Passat.
By the way, what do you drive ?
Milan.

It's a no brainer.
As is Fiat 500
Even the Audi A3 diesel is in VED band B. SEXY!

Originally posted by DimPrawn View PostI was thinking the other that the Suzuki Swift would make a good city car choice. I like the styling compared with a lot of the dull looking city boxes.
It's a no brainer.

Originally posted by milanbenes View PostI gotta say,
I think the _new_ Skoda Superb,

looks much better than the latest Passat which appears to have lost direction in terms of styling
Milan.
A high-performance 3.6-litre V6 4x4 VRS Superb, with just shy of 300bhp, is already understood to be on test.
