Volkswagen Passat Pros

A solid European sedan with classy & understated styling; will age well over time
Premium, upmarket cabin and a cavernous 586-litre boot
Loaded with features & technology (adjustable dampers, 360-degree area view camera...)
Fast & practical 2.0L TDI engine mated to a smooth & quick 6-speed DSG
Mature suspension brings balanced road manners
5-Star NCAP safety rating (9 airbags & a full suite of electronic aids)

Volkswagen Passat Cons

Many of you will find the styling to be too conservative
Sibling rivalry from the Superb (more rear legroom etc.). The Skoda is cheaper as well
Lacks the brand cachet that customers desire at this price point
Explosive 1.8 TSI petrol engine isn't offered, and neither is a manual transmission
Long-term reliability concerns over the DSG transmission
Volkswagen's dealership & service experiences are a hit or miss
