2006 Volkswagen Passat 2.0T review from Australia and New Zealand
"Safe, fast, stylish and ultramodern vehicle"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Nothing significant. Currently checking possible leak in window washer bottle.
General comments?
This car is superbly built, fast, comfortable and economical long distance tourer.
It is an electronic marvel which is far smarter than its driver!
Electronic handbrake, self leveling headlights, parking sensors, tilt alarm, individual climate control and heated seats make this car a joy to live with.
Safe and solid with multiple airbags yet feels light and airy.
