Passat R-Line? Looks good. Quick too.

R Line "Edition" 272ps DSG 4Motion

Not many in the UK: https://www.howmanyleft.co.uk/vehicle/volkswagen_p...

There were some with the 240ps BiTDi engine as well though.

Nice. Could you get this spec/engine in the Alltrack?

Nope. Deffo not in the UK anyway. Highest spec was 190ps petrol or diesel in those AFAIK. Only advantage would be the ride height?

Stage 1 APR and 4.3 to 60 using Dragy makes it reasonably quick if not fast

Nice.

What's "not fast" about 4.3 to 60? Especially when you're talking about an estate.

Not as fast an estate as some Alpinas here, but I present my D3 S Touring.

This engine was only available in the limited R-line variant I believe

Shame APR stopped doing Stage 2 onwards, I had the Stage 2 HPFP file on my Cupra.

Really like the R Line Passat, and the black detailing does it well. Shame that most of them have chrome details which takes away some of that look.

Thank you. The Dynamic alloys seem to be attracting lots of likes and, in my opinion, really suit the more angular shape of the latest G2x cars, though they remain a rare choice.

Sadly now gone but replacement coming soon, although will belong in the SUV thread.

Two months of this and I am absolutely loving it. Quiet relaxed mile muncher, massive grip. The power is quite addictive : )

Very nice too.

But, sorry, you won't be able to park an SUV here sir.

I still think of 8.6 to 60 as fast

Nice car btw skodaphile

Is it still running those floating calipers?

[naturals]

Skoda VRS owners - how do you find the interiors? A few people I know who have sat in them say they find them a little plasticy. I currently have a 3 series and fancy something equivalent / nicer. Will the VRS interior leave me cold?

Also any issues with the VRS auto box?

Brakes are standard
