Volkswagen Eos 1.4 FSI CC 2dr 2007

Absolutely love this car. It’s fast, looks great and is fun to drive. No problems with the roof and it has an NCAP rating of 4 - not bad! A reasonably priced convertable that gives around 40 MPG.

Volkswagen Beetle 1.6 3d 2004

This is such a girlie car and I love it. It’s cute looking and comes with a flower vase, what’s not to like?! It also has a decent engine and drives really well. It’s totally reliable and well built. A reinvented classic that has become a classic itself - pity you boys have to miss out!

Volkswagen Passat Estate 2.0 FSI 5dr 2007

This is my second Passat Estate and VW have done a great job in updating an already cracking car. The boot is now bigger and the interior feels even plusher. Brilliant car that drives exceptionally well and is affordable to run. 5 out of 5.

Volkswagen Touran 1.9 TDI SE 7 seat 2006

I’ve had this car for 12 months now and have just recommended it to my brother-in-law who is looking for a good, flexible family car that doesn’t cost a bomb to run and is very reliable, which this car fits the bill perfectly. The only downside I have found is the residuals on this car are low considering it’s a VW. I’ve advised my b.i.l. to buy a used one.

Volkswagen Touareg 2.5TDI ALTITUDE 2006

I have had my company Touareg now for two years and done 34000 miles. Superbly put together and quite economical: 26 around the houses and almost 30 on a run down the motorway. Only problem is a sticking rear door handle. I could have had a Range Rover Sport but have not regretted my choice. Going for its second expensive service now but not too heavy costs to service when you consider the servicing intervals. I will be buying another.

Volkswagen Transporter T30 130 BHP 2004

I have 26,500 miles on clock, the vehicle has failed its second MOT on front n/s shock absorber. The van still looks like new but I’m not a happy self employed joiner.

Volkswagen Jetta 2.0 TSI 200 Sport 2007

More room than a golf and less obvious than a Passat. A very good looking car that has plenty of zip and is a real delight to drive. All the high standards you would expect from VW, feels solid and safe and has a very comfortable and roomy interior. Glad I took the plunge and opted for this car, it’s a real beauty!

Volkswagen Transporter 1.9 tdi t28 104 2004

Fantastic to drive great comfort eats the miles effortlessly! But starting to have doubts about its reliability and ruggedness. My vehicle has done 65000 miles bought new in 04 mostly motorway work light loads not thrashed is currently in a thousand bits with gearbox failure and has been for two weeks waiting for a 4th gear to arrive! Asking at 3 service centers why it should get stuck told it was a mystery and that it is normally the 6 speed box that gets stuck in first and second, is this a common fault perhaps? While the gearbox is out I am fitting a new clutch as everything on this van takes so long to do. The dashboard has developed an annoying squeaking which I am still trying to stop . This is a long term project for me one day to be turned into a camper van so I hope nothing else major occurs! Great to drive not so sure about reliability not something I would thought I would say about VW as I have owned several and also run an LT!

Volkswagen Touran SE 2008

Took delivery last Friday and cannot fault the car! Have added 200 miles on the clock and with a ’tight’ engine, the average mpg is in excess of 40. Superb ride and the ’Park Assist was included in the sensor package. Shall use little of that technology but i did try it out this afternoon. It was incredibly accurate even if frightening when I saw that steering wheel turning of its own accord! Handling is superb and the driving position is as good as if not better than the three Touran’s I had previously! No regrets so far!

Leaky roof, persistent condensation, noisy ride at motorway speeds, questionable handling. Is this a practical alternative or a poor compromise?
