Hello Guys and Girls,

This is the first time im going to purchasea VW Passat tdi, Ive been looking for a passat tdi sport for a month now and finally ive found one. The car comes with FSH, in black, 130 Sport and has done 129K on a 2001plate.

Is it worth going for it?

Sound ok on price, just check the passenger side carpets (search for water leaks and you'll know why), and the suspension, and the clutch/DMF.

Bloody Hell,

On a R plate, asking way too much.

Bad news for me though, called the person up to view the car and it got sold. :(

Its desert biege (gold) My dads got a 51 plate tdi sport in that light metallic green and i much prefer the green. I dont think ive got the sport suspension either as my dads has a much firmer ride. All in all tho its a great car.:D

I wanted to get in that colour but was way out of my budget :(

Have fun with your new ride........
