Hi guys, my name is Bill, I live in sunny Brisbane.

I've joined this forum because I am on the lookout for a new (or good secondhand) car and a passat CC V6 FSI is on my list. I am an unabashed alfa fanatic - I own 2 - I understand that owning high spec euro beasts can be an expensive business so I'm really looking for info and advice on running costs and what to look out for before I dive in. I understand that VW has a good reputation for build quality and reliability but I also understand that things can get quite expensive when they go wrong.
