Volkswagen Passat

Review by Silv

The greatest car that could be even greater if it wasn’t for it’s so claimed safety features. But let’s start from the beginning. I was willing to buy the 2013 Passat TDI long before they even were available. I knew the company was redesigning it and waited for some additional features to be added. Added they were, but the car would be so much better without the on board computer and the backup camera. Let me explain, I’m pro safety all the way, I have two kids and know the value of a safe car. But with the added features that consist of on board computer that processes the backup camera this car became a little more expensive,not safe. The thing about these so called safe features is that they do not work. Well, they work, but so slow you could get out of your parking lot or the garage ten times before the camera even starts. Apart from the feature I most waited and that turned out to be the greatest disappointment, I’m pretty happy with it’s performance.

It’s a very spacious car even thought it doesn’t look like one from the outside. And with plenty of room I can relax and enjoy the drive. The interior design is also to die for. It’s so stylish and new you feel like a celebrity. Fuel economy also made me happy with my purchase. It’s a great family car with a lot of space and room for everyone, I would absolutely recommend it to a friend with a family. When you stop expecting your on board computer to work it transforms to a great car. 4 out of 5 from me, just because of the safety features that do not work properly.
