The dealer has given me the towbar specialist details who they use. I might go for a removable towbar due to the Passat being a decent length. Oh yes was quite smitten with the test drive. I agree the Auto Hold was impressive. You can't tell the engine has turned off until you hear it kicking...

Yes it's the 140 bhp. We need to have a tow bar fitted but it won't be done by the VW dealer. Not sure if to have a detachable one but I'm not sure I would be at ease, as a fixed one won't come off.

Decided to go for the Passat after all. Although it won't fit in the garage the boot space was the decision maker

Hi johnandrew70 thanks for the info. I see in another conversation the VW Passat only does 26mpg when towing. Although it's a spacious vehicle it's too long for the garage.

We're thinking of buying a VW Passat estate blue motion 2.0 TDi and would like to know what they are like to tow with and the MPTM they are capable of towing.
