A lot of car for the money...
...but
having come from a Passat W8 4-motion to the Golf GTi (and now R32), IMHO the Passat is just no fun to drive

Feels and handles much heavier, and can't be "chucked around" like a Golf
No one wanted to buy the Passat W8 either when I came to sell :embarassed: not even my local VW garage as a part ex ! I got a lot less in the end than a same year Golf Gti or R32.
