@tonyb36297 ай бұрын
I'm no VW fan, but I commend them for carrying on with the Passat - the saloon 'tourer' style, and more importantly, a strong diesel engine that will run circles around any EV.

My missus hates estates, i love them but shes the boss. This is gorgeous and so practical for our weekend roadtrips
@joaogaspar91557 ай бұрын
I really don't get the "missus" 🙃. Estates have to be the more practical and rational solution for pretty much every family solution 🤷♂ Same thing over here...
@seancotter46107 ай бұрын
Love an estate! I think the Audi avant or BMW touring cars are way better looking than the saloons.

I guess the arrival of the ID7 Tourer in Ireland will make up for the demise of the Passat there. Same with the new Škoda Superb Combi.

Nobby…this or ID7 Estate? What would you pick as your family car between the two.
@robbie68527 ай бұрын
It looks absolutely phenomenal Nobby. I’ll 100% be tipping over to get the Saloon R when it lands in the UK. VRT, VAT & Customs be damned, I’m getting one. Have a 17 R-Line at the minute and still getting almost 1,200km to a tank.

@keithronson26247 ай бұрын
Mark. So overlooked! The VW Passat has always been a solid, good car/estate. A proper Family car! Again another example as to why would you buy an SUV? Handling, capacity, design, quality, performance and so on. [The alloys are a love/hate//// yes diamond cut would be better. Correct me if wrong but the same as on new VW Tourag R-Line model? Again if it has to be a big SUV then this is the one. Certainly better than its 'blood brother' Bentley 'Bo**ocks over hyped, eye-watering priced glitz wagon! Yes VW have nailed it again! Cracking Family Estate! Cheers!

After you've curbed your black rims one or twice...and have Ivy growing through that lattice grill (like the Buzz) it's desirability will be somewhat diminished. Honestly VW has had some interesting concepts like the Buzz ..but before they release them some exec drives them to the local Supercheap Auto store and then the local Big Box hardware...and says ''I have a few things we can add and I even found this vase at ALDI ''..😑🌼 _or is this just german humour_

The overhangs are a bit too long which makes it look a bit old fashioned

You are certainly correct - it looks less well planted and it will reduce interior space even if it is already spacious..

Sorry Nobby, I DO not like the front of this car. Do not like the wheels. Nice interior though. Still think Skoda/Superb is ahead of VW in design. Plus they are doing the Saloon and plus that is going to Ireland.
