A great automobile, but you can't keep it.

Automobile performs extremely well, but prepare yourself for disappointment when it is revealed that TDI's cannot meet U.S. air pollution standards. My wonderful automobile has recently been repurchased by Volkswagen. There was no hope that VW could improve the vehicle to meet U.S. air pollution standards.

Bought this new 9 months ago with plans on moving it to Central Europe. This is our highway car. Very comfortable and economical. Love the steering and 6 speed manual transmission. I am not a great diesel driver... I occasionally stall out in first gear. Not quite enough very low end torque. I stalled more so with an older Audi A6 than this VW. I love the brake assist on hills... comes standard even with the stick shift. The radio speakers are really bad. I would never have kept the Sirius radio anyway, but if I were a radio-phile this is not the radio to have. Our Honda Fit (for the city) has a great sound system for a little car. Overall this is an excellent buy.
Worst car ever owned

Owned for four months, in the shop thirty three days. Numerous electrical problems, poor service from VW dealership ( Glenwood Springs VW) and VW care. This will be my last VW.

Great wagon fun to drive, averaging close to 50 mpg with the TDI.
