    Anthony Crawford drove this car and these were their findings:
    Hits
    • It's the ultimate affordable sleeper with muscular straight-line performance
    • Adaptive suspension makes this a delight on long hauls and quick through the corners
    • Huge boot and loaded to the hilt with kit
    Misses
    • A more satisfying engine note would be nice
    • Enjoying your Passat 206TSI R-Line comes at a cost at the bowser
    • Get used to three-point turns
