Goodbye Subaru, hello VW

[ROGUE]

G'day guys and gals.

Just thought I'd drop a line and say g'day.

Name is Damo, and have had a WRX hatch for the last few years. However, will be upgrading to a Passat Wagon sometime in the very near future. Just on this forum to read a bit more about the Passat before I buy it, and to decide on which variant I want...

Cheers and beers,

Damo

Welcome to VWwA Damo

Its great that you also a South Aussie

Anyway some may also sway you to look at Skoda which I might suggest you have a look at too.

Good Luck with the Buying

My choice in Passat Range is the 125kW TDI version

Welcome Damo, good luck with your search for a Passat!

Ben, is the R36 coming down to Australia? Maybe it's worthwhile waiting for that to come out if it does

welcome Damo...
My aunty just resently got an FSI passat 3.2.. gave me a ride, very happy with the comfort and design. Unfortunately couldn't convince her to do a 0-100 for me. she was too busy going on about the water sensor wiper, the smooth mechanism of the sunroof and the counting the interior compartments "14" from memory Oh also the smoothness of the dsg gear box going probably 40 ..in a 60 zone.

Anyways.. sure you will love it, perhaps you can show me 0-100 when you get it enjoy your Passat shopping.
