Would recomend this car to the friend
Pros: Very spacious car, comfortable to drive - you can practically drive 900 km a day without much fatigue. Driving long distances is ideal. Very spacious rack, very good that has 2 extra seats.
Cons: Relatively large repairs, but probably because I bought a car that was already quite used (310,000 km). The finish is quite rattling. It is not convenient to drive in narrow places, because the car is quite massive.

Would NOT recomend this car to the friend
Pros: Comfortable, economical, comfortable enough for those sitting in the third row. The cabin is not worn after 240,000 km, it looks like new.
Cons: Paint quality problems. After 200,000 km, we need to start investing quite seriously in various repairs.
I am not satisfied with the quality of service and attitude, I will no longer choose a VW brand car for this reason.
