I also drive a Passat. It's a 2002 GLS with 190k miles. We bought it new and it's been paid off since 2006. It's been unbelievably reliable and still looks almost new. It's our 3rd VW. When we finally have to replace it, we'll buy another VW.
Last month my father-in-law drove it, he said, "it handles better, rides smoother and the front end is tighter than my brand new Ford Fusion".
