Not sure which section to post - I almost posted in general car chat, but it says 'not VAG' and the choices are all VAG.......
I am changing my 53 plate Passat 1.9TDi 130 Sport (6 speed) and replacing with a brand new car.
Last year, when my car was in for service, they lent me a Jetta and I liked that, so was thinking of one of them. But when I went into the dealership, they new Mk6 Golf was there and so I took the 2.0TDi GT 140 for a test drive and was really impressed. The new engine is sweet and it is much quieter than the previous golf, plus the handling is really good.
I also test drove the Audi A3 2.0TDi, BMW 120d and I have one other car which I won't get to drive until Sunday ...... the Seat Leon 2.0TDi FR
So far, the contest is between the Golf GT and the Leon FR - what do people think between them?
Finally - any idea how much I should be asking for my Passat? Full VW service history, new cambelt done in December last year, also brake fluid change and aircon regassed - I even replaced the mats as the drivers one was showing some wear. Car has covered 85k miles, mainly sat on the motorway with the cruise control on at 70mph.
