Just go drive a Octavia RS Wagon then make up your mind. I did and bought 1 a week later. Why worry about resale if your going to lease the vehicle anyway, surely it cant do worse than a Falcodore fleet wagon who s value plumet faster than a stone. To buy the equivilent specd. Passat wagon is going to cost you $7k more ($10-11 if your good at negotiating on the Octavia) and even more on a Audi A4 wagon, so you are in front all ready.
