I am after an accurate trade valuation of the following :

Passat Highline, 2.0 130 bhp, 54 reg saloon with 47,000 on the clock. Mint cond with one owner, full history.

Ta.

Cheers for that, just need to find the hardest bit now and thats the bloody wheel and airbag

If you have the cruise on the wheel do you still need the stalk with the cruise control on as well ?

I am about to buy a highline saloon which does not have the very desirable Cruise Control and MFSW option, but i know a firm who will fit them.

The cost though of the MFSW is just too much...... but it is possible if i can source one, anybody point me in the right direction ?

yes you can do it i did my 04 highline tdi you just need all the right parts cost me about 250 pound. Wow fella, hold your horses :esm Can i ask if a VW dealer did this or was it a talented try by your good self ?? And do you have a list of bits ? I wanted to fit Cruise as well but would do both at...

ive got towbar on mine, use it with 500kg trailer quite often and car trailer every few months, the dmf and clutch were still good at 170k when changed ps if you remove the bar you will need a replacement metal crash bar Exactly, i spoke with a '' towbar man '' today and he said the same, he said i...

The car is a 53 plate and is a 2.0 130 petrol engine, it has done 37,000 miles and i suspect that only one of the two previous owners has fitted the bar and towed anything with it.

I may just be a liltte too paranoid.....

Simple question, on a saloon, buying the car but it has a tow bar and i am bit nervous.... i don't tow caravans and never ever will, so i may even have it removed, but could it have damaged the suspension etc. Ta

Nice and simple i had been told by a VW bod the answer was no, but thought i would just double check with you guys, the car is a Highline 2004 with no cruise already or of course the MFW...... Can one be fitted ?

I have been to see a few '' mint '' cars of late and have come to conclusion that a great number of owners are clinically blind :( Can anybody point me in the direction of a good place to find nice examples ? I do (of course) look on autotrader as standard, ebay is a little like fantasy land when it...

Ok, a car i may be buying has had the original cd player removed (in the front of the dash) and another VW one put in, i think the one in is exactly like the one taken out originally but i understand from the current owner that the controls on the wheel now do not work the stereo..... could this be ...

Anybody recommend me the very very best smart repairer in good ole Manchester, i am about to buy a passat and i know what ever one i get it WILL have some dents, scuffs or scratches i will need to get done.

Cheers.

I have seen a trendline for sale but the owner says he fitted a vw cd player in the front because when he got it, it has been removed..... since then the cruise works ok from the wheel but the headunit (all of it i think) will not respond... any ideas ?

That is exactly right, i agree with you, the 16v one would be my choice but trying to find the right one close to my home (or at least within 100 miles) is really difficult.

As you will see from other posts i am looking at getting one of the above either in estate form or saloon, but is there a big difference in driving. sound, and feel etc between both engines, some cars i see are the more update 16v engines with the colour coded bumpers etc while others are the black ...

Looking for the right Passat is like trying to knit candy floss !!! I like the armrest in the SE but it does not have cruise or multi function steering wheel, but now i find out the bloody Trendline has the S cloth interior (not the best) with no centre arm rest..... what the hell are VW doing. Is t...

Speed is not really that much of an issue with any car, its just an alternative to my main mode of transport...... i travel to work day to day on a Honda CBR1000RR Fireblade... speed becomes very subjective when no sooner are you looking at a place you want to go... then your there, not really remem...

Looking at getting one of the above cars. I think it will be a saloon although i have nothing against an estate (sorry wagon). I am going for petrol because of the mileage i will be doing each year (about 2,000 per annum), paying the extra for diesel is just plain made for me. But what are your opin...

Now as you can see from my login i am brand new, i am not even too sure what a B5 or 5.5 Passat is :esm I just hope when i post my question we are talking about the correct years..... It is a 2001 (Y Reg new shape) 2.0 SE (petrol) Saloon with 73k on the clock in green, Manual, it has had 2 owners fr...
