    Just traded my Passat for an Octavia Scout. Just the vehicle I wanted. Couldn't be happier, got a great deal too!

      Congratulation, good choice. Scout would be my option if they had DSG at the time when we were buying Tiguan.

        I would have preferred DSG but who can knock back a $10,000 discount on a MY10! Love the diesel engine even though its a PD. May need a little more soundproofing. Has a few things the Passat didn't have eg iPod connectivity (Aux-in), touchscreen etc

          Excellent choice my friend; sounds to be an excellent deal too. See you 'round!

            Hi, PassatB6.

            I sent you a PM regarding your recent purchase a few days ago. Not sure if you read it yet but I'm just looking for some info because I'm thinking about maybe getting a Scout. Anyway, if you want to answer my PM, cool. If not, that's cool too. Thanks!

              Reply sent! BTW if you are doing a lot of stop start driving you might want to wait for the DSG. I don't so I'm OK with manual.

                  Me again. Sorry but I don't see any new private messages for me. Or am I missing something? Thanks!

                      If you wanna do a lot of start, start driving, get the manual. There will be no 5 year old DSG cars that still drive.

                        Could you please explain this a bit more. Sounds like DSG doesn't like stop start driving?

                          You have to remember there are still Manual clutches in it.. its not a slushbox at all.

                          The clutch pack is going to wear quickly in lots of city driving.
