    1st Weekend with Passat

    Have now had my Passat 125TDI(jan 2013 build) since midday on Friday after trading in my 05 multivan highline 3.2l 6spd manual 4 motion.

    Is nice to be back in a car again, am very impressed with the Passat. I looked at Mondeo and Mazda 6 but the Passat won out. i am impressed with the performance an economy. This is my 1st diesel and 1st automatic so quite different to the van.

    Liking all the technology. Very happy with my decision.

    Good choice fletchog! I was in the same boat and the 125TDI won me over (first diesel car). I'm a bit OCD and washed and vac'd twice since Thursday
    I opted for the visibility package and panoramic roof and love it !

    Driven carefully you can give 1000km/tank a nudge.
