I own a PASSAT for about a year now. The car is simply fantastic. It is very well built and feels really safe at all times. Safety was one of the main reasons for me to choose this german car as at the time there was no other car under 30L with 5 Star ratings. Delivers a fantastic fuel efficiency of 15-18 kmpl on highways and about 12-14 kmpl in city drive which is pretty good for its size.
I was not very sure of the auto gearbox at the time of buying the car as it seemed uninspiring to drive one. But all my misconceptions have been put to rest with the DSG auto gearbox which is a pleasure to drive as the gearshift is executed in milliseconds.
Cons- A bit noisy engine for this segment. VW could work more on cabin sound insulatoin. Frequent service requirement every 7500 km

Exterior Good looks, curve light a nice thing to have, strong body.
Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) An average music system, better comfort in the front seats, Auto hold funtion a wonderful tool to have in stop & go traffic, wood finish Front panels.
Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Brilliant gera box/shifts, Great to drive in 'S' mode and engine noise sounds great on S mode.
Ride Quality & Handling Excellent grip on the road, touched 200 Kmph on Salem -Kovai NH road, good response.
Final Words As the name says 'volkswagen' a real car for common man with the comfort of the luxury brands, Value for money (under 25-30 Lacs), Good milege even for the city drives( 12 kmpl).
Areas of improvement The Air conditioning system certainly requires improvement. Needs frequent cleaning up of A/c filters, rear window sun bilnd are flimsy(better design in a Merc E class), Grond clearence a problem in a city like B'lore where there are monstrous speedbreakers.
Driving comfortLow ground clearence & poor air conditioning
