I am wanting to replace my B5 Passat Tdi PD100 with something newer and a little more powerful.
It's between the newer B6 passat (2.0 petrol or 2.0 Tdi) or the Skoda Octavia Vrs. I know the Skoda is the more powerful car but I prefer the looks of the Passat.
Does the new Passat still have the damp problems that the earlier models had? Do the cv gaiters last longer than they did on the old model? Are there any reliability problems with the 2.0 petrol or diesel engines? & What sort of mpg can I realisticaly expect? I never trust a manufacturers claimed mpg.
Would anyone recomend the Skoda over the Passat
