    Wife said we needed a family wagon. I was worried a wagon would make me look like some kind of soccer mum. Then I found this car. Bought the 206Tsi R-Line estate in black. Bought the window shade pack from VW and now it looks absolutely murdered out.. Beast

    I have a 2017 BiTDI model saloon remapped. Love it. I will say my fuel consumption hardly changed running about 290ish bhp. Long term 40+, must check the latest reading tomorrow. I have the digital dash. I don’t have the wind noise or the freezing infotainment. Great sleeper.

    They are brilliant sleepers, so many people underestimate them as they just think oh a Passat 😂 I’m always in the 30s mpg range normally sits at 32mpg. You seem to be very lucky with the wind noise then… everyone we’ve spoken to have wind noise maybe yours wasn’t made on a Friday like mine 😂

    I have the 150TDi, love the car! it also doubles up as a tent when I cover RallyCross all over the country :) LOVE those rims BTW. you mentioned the economy on the 150, I do Bolton to dover (Lydden Hill) 600 miles round trip, I use around 2/3 of a tank, usually the full tank gets me around 7-800 miles...

    Thats awesome, do you have the roof tent system? The 150tdi car is brilliant on miles if your sensible, like any car they will drink more when thrashed but the 150tdi has to be the best for fuel efficiency and still nippy thanks to the torque. It’s surprising the wheels get a lot of interest, there’s not another bitdi modded near me and it’s always getting attention.

    Hey, Lovely car. Is it on lowering springs or coilovers? How would you rate the comfort level of the drive compared to the stock springs? Have the same car but wouldnt want the ride to be too harsh if I were to lower it. Mine is on the stock 18" alloys at the moment. Thanks!

    Nice figures. I’d have thought you would have had more body roll in the a6 than the Passat as the a6 is the heavier out the two. Body roll was minimal on my estate damn near nothing now. Can get the back end out and it’s even half predictable lowering springs and front adjustable drop links backs firm enough.
