I had 2 red passats estates in 1995 . I just got out of a mental hospital and was at a low ebb in my life . I got a job delivering parcels and I got my first red Passat estate and I absolutely loved it . The freedom of the countrywide driving job in a car that had so much space was absolutely brilliant 🤩 a great boost for my life at that point …. It was a big comfy car with the room of a van and the fuel consumption of a car 🚗

I also have access to a 2011 volkswagan passat 1.6 tdi estate and it just eats up the miles .such a shame for all the ulez bollocks that has seen so many of the brilliant cars being sent to the scrap yard years before their time .really looking forward to seeing how this epic trip goes .

I had a Passat for the last 7 years, 2011 B7 2l TDI, did 110 thousand miles in it and only serviced it every two years, never skipped a beat. I could drive to Italy from the south of Germany and back on one tank, one of the best cars ever made. I sold it last year and i miss that car every day.

I bought a 2011 1.4 TSI DSG Passat in February this year. Gave it a new set of wheels, full service and MOT. So far the only things that needed some work was the A/C that somehow lost it's cooling liquid and currently the steering lock module is giving some intermittent warnings of being defective, which the local Bosch service station is busy sourcing the replacement part for. Other than that, we have done some miles in the car already and it really is a very pleasant car to own and drive. Definitely think that you will not be disappointed by this one.

@chrisgell9052 13 дней назад

I've run a B7 Passat Alltrack 2.0tdi 177 DSG for the last 4 years, as a family workhorse replacement to a much loved E91 330i manual. Excellent mile muncher and very capable in snow with 4-Motion and all season tyres. Not as bombproof as I'd hoped though. DSG box issues (sorted at £2.5k at VW independant), split EGR pipe, DPF nearing end of life at 100k (due to ash build up rather than being blocked), snapped rear springs, seized rear bushings, electric handbrake sticking. Guess mainly 'wear and tear' but I think my E91 more reliable overall.

@wiktorkawala6298 12 дней назад

Was it the mechatronic unit by any chance that went in the DSG?

@chrisgell9052 11 дней назад

How did you guess? 🙂. Whilst DSG box apart they also changed clutch packs and clutch release bearings. This was at 80,000 miles. In my ownership it gets a DSG service (oil and filters) every 50,000 together with Haldex service. Ignore the 'sealed for life' mantra from VW.

@wiktorkawala6298 11 дней назад

@@chrisgell9052 The reliability of the DSG’s, or lack thereof, is something that should be addressed by VW. You’re lucky you don’t have the dry packs in the lesser powered vehicles. My dad had an Audi A3 e-tron and the mechatronic unit on that went, £3k repair, thankfully covered by warranty. He’s got a 2.0tdi Ultra Audi A6 2018 now and he did a DSG service at 40k miles, touch wood nothings popped yet on it but i definitely won’t be getting a dsg anytime soon.
