The 2003 Passat is a great vehicle, though some not so much. Overall good MPG, healthy power, and plenty of features, comfort, and room. The Passat comes in a variety of models and engines, and comes in sedan or wagon body styles. Some came out extremely reliable, reaching 300,000 miles or more, but some have broken down at 120,000 miles. And the work required to replace parts in the engine bay is a headache. Overall consumer rating is a solid 4.5.
