Buyer's Guide & Data from our Checks
The VOLKSWAGEN PASSAT (2005-11) 5DR ESTATE 1.6 FSI SE is a roomy, five-door family estate from Volkswagen’s well-regarded mid-size range. It offers a practical alternative to a large hatchback, with a long load area for luggage, shopping, pushchairs or weekend equipment. In the UK used-car market, it sits alongside estate versions of the Ford Mondeo and Vauxhall Vectra, prioritising space and comfort over compact city-car convenience.
mycarcheck.com records 45 look-ups for this model description, covering four distinct VINs, so the figures offer a useful snapshot rather than a broad market average. Those checks show an average private-sale valuation of £600, average recorded mileage of 185,000 and average annual mileage of 24,000; cars had five previous keepers on average.
