I have a 2001 B5 Passat and love it. Bought it brand new and have put 60,000 miles on it so far. Nothing major has gone wrong with it, just a few small things like replacing a headlight bulb. I have the factory recommended services done to it at 5,000 mile intervals, and it averages about $400 a year. It averages 30 mpg going between Red Bluff and Susanville every week (2 lane twisty mountain road, past Mt. Lassen), and thats with me flogging it pretty good. It does have considerable body roll on 15" wheels and tires and the factory suspension, but is very comfortable for freeway cruising.
