Have a newly purchased 2009 Crewvan T5 tdi, and a 2007 tdi Passat wagon that I've owned for a few years. Owned a couple of Passat tdis previously. Am in the process of setting the van up to be a second car / kid transporter by week, and a campervan by weekend. Generally had good luck with vw diesels so decided to sell the Prado and get a van instead, as more useful for the type of family and kayaking camping now doing - plus better fuel economy. More space important than go anywhere 4wd for current lifestyle.
Cheers
