Does any one have the 4 wheel drive version of the VW Sharan e.g. 4 Motion, and how well does it cope with wet grass?

Im fairly sure VW do not do a 4WD version of the Sharan. There is a relatively poor selection of 4WD 'ordinary' VWs. Obviously there is now the Tiguan off roader available soon. However if, like me, you are looking for a 4WD that does not look like a 'gas-guzzler' the Passat estate 4WD is excellent. Another option could be the Octavia Scout TDi which at under

Robert's right. There is no 4WD version of the Sharan. The closest that VW in that line is a 4WD Caravelle although I'm not sure whether that's available in the UK.

They may not make it anymore but VW DID produce a Sharan 4motion, I have seen one. The Shaz and its sisters are one of the most stable towcars in 2wd but with 4wd traction the 4motion could only be better, though a little more power and better reliability wouldn't come amiss.

The Sharan was available in the U.K with both the TDI and 2.8 V6 petrol engines, and were very highly regarded and sought after towcars.
