I owe a 2010 cc, 2.0 TDI, 140BHP. Love the comfort and the look. If it's maintained well over the years, no unexpected issues will surprise you. Planing to drive it until it rolls.

I always imagine that Passat diesels will be one of the few cars still running when the government finally bans IC engines, at some time in the dystopian future.

I have a 2016 184bhp TDI which I’ve had since new. Love it, does everything and is such a good looking car. Never gone wrong either.

I own the 2013 CC VR6 4Motion Executive and I LOVE this car. Much better than the Mercs I owned previously. Stupid fast, handles amazingly and I have gotten more complements on this car than any other I've owned

Thanks again for your efforts Matt 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

I do like it Matt, great review as always

I have a 2012 VW CC 2.0TDI GT - had it 3yrs - love it. Best car I've owned. Amazing mpg and the DSI gearbox is great too. Boot is and plenty of space in the back for my kids.

Thanks for the review...
I own a CC since 2020, a 2016 model, 2.0 TDI, manual, 184 bhp. It is still a Passat inside, some might say it is boring. Personally i like it, fairly good materials in it, all the comands are "in reach", cluster instrument for sure very stylish, so is the steering wheel. Plenty of confort in the front seats.
About the exterior design is only one word to say: EXCEPTIONAL! Amazing shape, good proportion. I could not find any lack in design.
It drives very nice too, gearbox works very smooth, and in Sport Mode the driving becomes pleasure. I did 220 km/h (there was room for more) and the car behaved perfect. No shake, no vibrations and engine noise acceptable.
To conclude: a good car, reliable, stylish! I do not regret any euro spent on it!

Certainly hit the nail on the head with this review. I currently own a 2011 gen 1 Passat CC. It’s a very middle of the road car, but a little more special than the average Passat or Mondeo. I have always wished that they would have given the opinion to have the 3L V6 TDI. To make stand out even more above the middle of the road cars and bring it in line with the other 4 door coupes. I have, had mine over two years now, been very reliable but due to being boring I want to change it already. Anyway, keep up the great work.

Got a 170bhp Tdi DSG. Great car. Will eat miles all day long and still looks better than most stuff on the road. About to hit 100k and just had one glow plug go. One to do before winter. I thought of changing but couldn’t find anything I liked enough that I could afford. Much underrated car. I chose it after going through about 25 different VAG company cars. This was my pick for a 1 year old car.

I've got a cc 3.6 awd over here in Australia. Always get compliments on the looks of the car, and 0-100 in 5.5. Definitely can't get anything better for $10k Aud, loads of fun and very good for long drives. Nice review!

[davidmoynahan]

Great reviews of many cars that buyers would usually overlook. Nice to own something a bit different.
Chrome bright work helps to set a level of presence and class to the car and highlight the sleek profile.

I love an “old mans car”. Give me comfort over sport any day. Interesting car, great video as always Matt 👍🏻

[andreibarbu]

I bought in 2018 a Vw CC 15 on reg 2.0TDI and I'm happy with my car. It's very confy and very economical. I've done a remap on it, from 140bhp to 172bhp just for a better fuel economy and the car still drives great.

[smithjohn]

Interesting car this one. Originally the car that I wanted to pick up for a first buy. I still think they are pretty stunning looking cars to this day. The 3.6 l VR6 engine looks and sounds pretty good.

[waldo]

great review! got 2009 model at the moment, love it to death!

[anibalcampos]

I Drive a 2017 R-Line Executive and I just love it so much! I’ve literally put 18k miles in my first 8 months and it’s ready to keep hauling! Very unique, elegant, and fun to drive car.

[BILLI]

I own a 2013 gt bluemotion...and I absolutely love the way it looks and I love driving it..one of the best cars I have owned, and I have had audis, bmws, Saabs etc etc...

[billrodgers]

I have the 2010 CC Sport 125kw TDI and really love it. Loaded with so many standard features that are options on other cars.
Traction control, Optical self parking, sensors front and back, rear camera, 3 suspension settings at the push oF a button, GPS maps and directions, Bluetooth phone connection, heated seats all around, tyre pressure sensors, sun roof, tinted windows, CD player with hard drive storage and fantastic economy 1250 to 1300 kms from 68 litres.

Great review Matt my 2010 Passat gt has been great I’ve had a few issues with it had to replace the egr valve and rear shocks and bushes after I was getting a clunk after going over speed bumps that cured the problem the only other thing I had done is I got my 140 remapped to 170 which gives it more midrange grunt mines the six speed Manuel very happy with it now I haven’t found anything to replace it for the price cheers Matt.
