159 sportwagen

there were some images of a black 159 sportwagen on the continent, it looked mint, they were in the post below, anyone got a copy they can post?

Can't help on that front, but I did have a poke around a 159SW at a dealer when my GTA was in for a service - it's a much bigger car than the 156 was, and the extra space, comfort, ride height and steering lock mean that I'll consider one vs a new-shape passat estate as my wife's next car (which also gets used as our family car). Only downside will be the fact I'll be comparing a diesel (2.4) vs a petrol (2.0T) in the passat, but the economy would help, and I don't mind diesel in a car that's not my everyday car.

I saw a few around in Italy last week, they looked great.
