We have Passat sports as company cars. Just gone to order a new one and they have deleted the model and not replaced it. The rep whos car it is doesn't want one unless it has the sports suspension and the sports seats so now I'm on the hunt for an alternative manufacturer.

Nice one Volkswagen.

Hang on a second, it should still be on the list, its just been replaced with a new R-Line trim. From what I remember this still has the sports suspension and sports seats, see http://www.carsuk.net/vw-passat-r-line-introduced/ for more info

ETA - If it *must* be Sport there should be some models still in stock

ETA 2 - Just looked in price list and R-Line dosent have the sports suspension, it would have to be added as an option, but otherwise looks pretty similar to the 'old' Sport model. Bluemotion on other hand has standard sports suspension, but no sports seats..
