Company Car

[shortarse100]

may be changing jobs and getting a company car. Have up to �373 per month based on 20k miles per annum fully maintained. Need comfort, economy and safety. Looked at X Series Jag and also new Passat. Any suggestions?

The Jags a nice motor.

Fancy a 4 x 4 or a sporty job.

Try Fish4cars web site good selection for ideas

Go for a Skoda Octavia or Superb. Im a fleet manager and I swear by them.

Passat's are good also.

Rather than a Jag why not look at some of the top of the range Mondeos ? They are essentially the same car and you'll be saving on tax.

I used to work part time for a VW Fleet dept. As well as doing office work, I spent a year delivering the cars too.

The new Passat came out in March 05. It's s a nice car, although it perhaps doesn't feel as solid as the previous model. The 2.0TDI engine is great but I think in a higher tax band than the 1.9TDI. After a few thousand miles, you can barely tell the difference between the two anyway. DSG gearbox also good if you are thinking of an auto. S models a little dull. SE models gives you better wheels and seats. Sport models give you different alloys again, front sports seats and three spoke steering wheel etc. SEL models better again, with leather, heated front and rear seats. This trim though only available on 2.0 and 3.2 models.
