Was the A8 auto being referred to.


Yes a manual M5 is an option, but not wanting the insurance premium or the danger to my license! :grin:

Shut up and get a B5.5 1.8T and get it re-mapped.

You're just stalling, old guy.

The search is now urgent as the Black Passat is virtually dead. (Turbo)

Good 1.8T Sports are thin on the ground though!

Nope! Heard bad things about B6's

Billy is off now to buy a Gttdi Golf and only 4 miles away is a grey passat that is worth a look!

I think with such a volume model it's hard NOT to hear bad things.

I would honestly take it with a pinch of salt and if you're willing to try buy a 12month warrantee with the car when you purchase it.

Certainly the early electric handbrake issues were mostly ironed out under the VW warrantee.
