Volkswagen Passat 1981 reviews
Pros: Simple design. The "native" (1.6 D) engine was very robust, but now, in the spirit of the times, a modified 1.9 TDI is fitted. It sits very well on the road and, more importantly, on slippery and icy roads. Capable and high-capacity
Cons: The original optics were lousy, but when I put on the other lights, everything was fine.

Pros: Cough, sneezing, but going forward.
Pros: A highly durable and reliable car. Excellent, tough suspension, durable and powerful engines. Gas consumption (2. generation) - not more than 10 litres, regardless of driving style. You can adjust consumption to 8.5 l / 100km, but gas master dissuaded. Although it would be optimal for consumption, I dont took a risk to regulate.
Cons: Rust creeps through cracks - age guilty and tons of salt on roads. Ventilation control unit and door handle, is weakness of this model
