Anyone else have a W8??

Hello All,

I have had my 2004 W8 Passat for a couple of months now - love it!! The only thing is that I was told by the dealer where I bought it that there are only 17 of these in Australia. Is there anyone else out there that has one??? Cheers, Peter.

bahahahahahaha......a 1.8T 4cyl FWD is better than a 270hp 4Motion W8....hahaha...no no....thats good!

i'm hoping it was a joke

i've read several review on these cars and although they don't seem to shape up to the critics expectations....but i'd be pretty happy to own one with all the bits and bobs that come with it.........supercharger anyone??

Thanks Guys - I'll have to get the camera out but not before I pay some serious homage to the exterior! I got the car in Jan (couldn't afford an A6 4.2 Quattro) Saw it on drive.com.au and couldn't believe the price ($31k) . I have been in love with the W8 for ages but never thought I could afford one. Anyway it goes hard - I use it in tiptronic when I can - Goes heaps better. So standby for pics. Maybe get to it this weekend!
