Title: Used the scorp replacement last weekend
Post by nic on Jan 28^th, 2006, 9:38pm

as you know the cossie is gone and I got Sue a passat sport as a replacement. Well I used it for the 1st time going to a conference for work.
1st impressions are its OK, seats are comfy, quiet, Cc works better then mine, audio is ok.
Power is the VW 130hp TDI with the 6 speed box and it pulls well, cruises at 85 no problem and returned 47.7mpg.
Downsides are it looks like everything else on the road, its manual, front wheel drive and german.

But it looks like she is happy, cant help thinking she would have been happier in the estate and me in my 1st choice, a XJR V8. Never mind, when the estae has had it I will get one.
