Oh wow I wasn't aware of that. Seeing how it's gonna be mainly a weekend car that's good to know... has any one had any dramas with the dpf??

If you don’t drive a long enough distance, the car will ask you to drive until it regens . That’s it.

Oh fair enough that's not horrible compared to some other dpf systems.

Well, if you don’t cruise long or towing, why TDI? Horrible engine sounds.

Well for me it's more economical based decision but also for the long weekend cruise. Ultimately I wasn't really phased by the noise in the tdi, obviously the 206r sounds nicer and the tdi can be quite loud on idle but once your driving I could
Not really hear it that much...

Fair enough. Passat B8 is such a nice car anyway.

I haven’t heard the engine yet. Not from the cabin anyway.

Yeh I agree. when I took mine for a test spin last week couldn't tell at all. Good sound proofing. I did notice the noise with the windows down and the engine idling but aside from that quite impressed.. quick question, as I'm buying mine second hand will the warranty transfer over to my name? There is still a full 12 months warranty left on it so for piece of mind that's would be great

Think so. If there is nothing to void warranty.

That's good to hear... would I have to contact Volkswagen to swap it over or do they just go by the cars rego or vin ?

The warranty is attached to the car, not the owner or registration. Just fill in and send off the change of ownership details.
