    Nice Lance, looks identical to mine except I have the 125 kw TDI front wheel drive (same colour) and the 17 in wheels.

    My mate has an R32 and it was his car that made me decide to go for the VW Passat V6 rather than stick with Subaru Liberty 3.0R B Spec. I took his R32 for a blast through the Adelaide Hills and loved it, so I can fully understand why you love yours too. Handling, torque, driveability, exhaust note all made up for a great drive.

    I initially went to the VW dealer to try out the R32, but it was a little impractical for me as it was too small for my requirements. I then thought about the 125kW diesel wagon, and as good as the diesel was when I drove the V6 4Motion I was blown away. Reminded me very much of the R32 and so my fate was sealed! I have not regretted the decision one bit.

    The diesel was my initial thought for the Passat wagon and it is a brilliant drive as it has huge low down torque, but coming from a Subaru 3.0R B spec I am an AWD fan and so the V6 4Motion ended up as the choice.

    Sorry I couldn't make the drive guys but I had a few things to attend to on Sunday morn. I hope the day went well for everyone.

    I would like to attend the next outing if possible.
