Summary

Although our test VW Passat Wagon was a great car. It was good-looking in a modest fashion and lots of fun to drive. And frankly, we probably would have been involved in a much more serious accident if it weren't for the vehicle's precise steering, responsive braking and overall superior handling.

Once you get used to the vehicle's shortcomings-mostly a lack of interior conveniences-we think you'll love the Passat Wagon. In many ways, it reminded us of the more highly praised German makes such as Mercedes-Benz or Audi, and it's considerably less expensive.
