Used Volkswagen Passat for Sale in Ashburn, VA

I owned a 2000 Passat for 3 years, and in that time I found it to be a very nice car. The interior was spacious and the materials used in the seats and roof were very high quality. The model I owned had a sunroof and a six disc cd changer. It ran reliably, and had very few maintenance issues. The only odd thing was that to change CDs you had to go in the trunk, which was only slightly inconvenient.

While the Passat isn’t the best family car for comfort or handling – it loses out on both counts to the Ford Mondeo – it’s not far off. All the controls feel solidly built, plus there’s a positive gear change and steering that makes the car feel agile in tight car parks and built up areas. The Passat also feels stable and secure on the motorway. The Passat comes with VW’s latest diesel engines, which are far smoother than the engines they replaced, but still prove punchy and economical.
