smallzoo99 Posted September 19 Share Posted September 19 I currently have a 2005 1.9pd 100 Passat estate. Brilliant engine, great boot but a bit dated and rusting... I was thinking of something either instead of or aswell as ( the car only cost me £1200 ) We will be mainly taking dogs on local walks but a few times a year, fully laden, down to Cornwall etc We will only do about 5k miles a year in it as it's a 2nd car..not worried really about tax or insurance With a budget of under £4k could I pick up a decent 2.0D..., are they reliable and what about manual Vs auto Thanks Peter (Cheshire , UK) P.s. just read the what car review on a 2009-2014 and they think its not good..only 2 stars Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greenmamba Posted September 20 Share Posted September 20 Welcome and good luck. Avoid that era of Subaru diesels as they are known to have serious engine failures. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
