Val was an amazing help!
Val was an amazing help! Answered any questions we had about a car we were interested and didn’t rush us!! Can’t recommend this place and Val enough!
A lot of bang for the buck
I bought the 2012 in 2018 with about 80k on the odometer. Put 20k per year and only had 1 minor maintenance issue (other than wear items ) with a power steering leak that was not an expensive fix. Averaged 30 MPG and had plenty of power and handling to make driving it fun and confident. Really great on long trips. Has a huge back seat and large trunk. I gave it to my college student son and bought another used Passat for us.
There are 6 matching cars close to your year range.
