1987 Volkswagen Passat Estate review from Sweden
"An underestimated winner"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The top front suspension bearings are not too good right now.
The front left wheel bearing is not too good either. But It still keeps going.
General comments?
The car was sold in Germany, but imported to Sweden in 1999. It's not rusty at all. Despite the high mileage of the car, it is in good shape. I love this car. The engine runs great and its really comfortable.
