Does the Skoda have the 4 wheel drive system too? If so then i must say I'd be tempted ....

[Overseer]

A Passat it is  

which variant ya go for?  

[Omar]

Would have gone for the Seat Leon 20vT myself mate - fast and big enough for your family.

Which Passat did you go for then?


(oooh, Honda Accord TypeR??? )

[golfvr6]

Can't get a Seat Leon 18 months old for under 11k.
I have gone for a Passat 2.0S, only 130bhp  :'(
But it is only just a year old  

[Overseer]

induction kit, bore it out a lil.. supercharger.. new cam.. lmao  

20v isnt it?

[golfvr6]

Nah, 16v.
0-60 9.9 secs
130mph top speed

It should be good on the motorway, maybe a bit slow around town.
They are bloody huge cars!  

[Overseer]

you'd never have lived it down if it were an 8v  

so the engines not much diff than the ABF in my valver?

[golfvr6]

Don't really know mate, i'm not up on new vw engines.
I expect it is similar, it is detuned for the fleet market, ie. low emissions.
Its very different to what i am used to, in effect its very much like an Audi A4.
Very posh

We have a Passat (53 reg) estate. It is the diesel 130BHP version. Its funny when you have a boy racer next to you coz you scare them!

Good choice of car though, personally I would have gone TDi as it is performance and cheaper.

Nice one!
