2000 Volkswagen Passat 4 motion review from North America
"Incredible AND a bargain"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Electronic Computer - Warranty.
Oil feeder line blew.
General comments?
Car is really amazing, I have owned Mercedes, Honda, GM, Ford, Dodge, Yamaha, BMW, and have driven MANY rental vehicles, I have never been more satisfied with a car.
Knowing what I know now, would GLADLY have paid another $5 - $7,000 for the car.
Handles incredibly, really funny on a windblown and rainy interstate when everyone else is pulled over or driving 10-20 mph and I am trying to stay UNDER the speed limit and laughing out loud, has happened more than once :)
BEYOND BULLETPROOF!!!
Car feels tank-solid when driving, and performance is like WOW!!!
Heated seats, auto dimming mirrors, tiptronic transmission, ultraviolet display, all wheel drive, well why do you think I have more than 70,000 miles on a two year old car :)
