Just purchased a MY2017 Passat 206 R. What a superbly equipped car. No head up display but excellent value for money. 203kW awd Golf R brakes and adjustable suspension with Sport mode which changes the steering, suspension, gearbox shift points, air conditioning use etc. Lovely car to drive and it has the VW Driver Assist package. Accelerates well, goes around corners well and stops very well.

Congrats!! Looks lovely!
A photos.
3000km driven. Very economical - finally got out of Sport mode and found Economy mode. As low as 6.1l/100km.
Golf R performance probably achievable with a stage 1 tune. Only slightly slower in standard configuration. It gets quicker as it loosens up. An extremely comfortable car to drive. It is quite, rides well and handles well. Superb brakes and equipment level. The poor man's Audi RS6. (Half the engine). A very good buy.

Caradvice Review 2017 Volkswagen Passat 206TSI R-Line review | CarAdvice
I'm looking at buying the Comfortline with the R-Line Pack or the Diesel with the R-Line Pack which is the better choice and colour wise I'm leaning towards the Reflex Sliver Colour as i'm not sure on the Pure White and Deep Black.
