Used to have an Octavia VRS with the 1.8T but it had 180bhp and that would keep up with a Clio 182 as my mate had one but handled like a boat round bends !! Whats the passat 1.8T 150bhp ?? Get it mapped to 180bhp and should be fine.. But yes the Octavia felt massive !!

Got to admit I wasn't keen on Passats but then I got my 94 B4 VR6 passat and I can't fault it - nearly as much fun as my 88 valver - the handling not as good obviously but for it size its a brillant understated drive (actually it sounds better too!) you ought to look at www.ukpassats.co.uk best advice I say is keep both :wink:
