Passat B6 with a conventional Handbrake

Really?

Yes I had one as an Hire car from Europcar. It was a very uncomfortable drive as they had no centre armrest...

Thats not the worst of it - it only have 5 gears and the performance was past bad... unless of course Europcar had a rev limiter fitted... i couldn;'t get it above 3000 without the engine spitting flames...

Domestos - Have you got the exact same car as me ??

And I've had 1.9tdi courtesy Passats - they just don't like revving above about 2500 - after that it's just noise.

Pretty much apart from the heated leather seats...
