Well what a way to start the 500th post..

Got the delivery of the FIRST VW PASSAT IN INDIA (As claimed by VW mumbai dealer) on 25th September.

Well lots has been said about the car and many of us know about it.
Just a few tit bits from my side..

Plus Points -

1. Excellent driveability- Drive from Panvel to Pune was just awesome. The car really handles and holds the road well.

2. The car comes completely loaded hence there isnt much you can ask for. Some features like DSG, Auto hold for city driving, Bi-xenon, Sport seating in Nappa leather with full 8 way adjustment, Clutter free instrumentation, Parktronic, Sunblind for rear windows, Rain sensors, Auto lighting, Great In-dash VW info system, Start Stop Push button in which the key is inserted, Scratched aluminium inserts and a really big boot space are really nice.

3. Peppy 2.0 TDI engine which provides great acceleration and effort free driving

Minus Points -

1. Hard suspension- Stiff suspension is really good for handling but i guess it could have been a little softer to provide that luxury feel. But i guess since they have provided sport seating stiffer suspension must have been on their mind to give you the feel.

2. Rear leg space- Its more than sufficient but 2 inches more would have made a world of a difference.

Well since its only 2 days old this is all i can really comment about the car.
Will give more details as and when I come across them. Pictures will follow tomorrow..

Cheerss
