I know a contact at NDB where they once purchased 4 Passats, 4 Boras for their managment team and they had some suspension and air con issues with the Passat. 2 Boras had its rear suspension changed. But then again those were driven out station it seems.
Personaly i think Bora is good as its a VW and its stylish too. If you think you can afford a big bill i think go for it. And besides, i dont think it will be a "leda Waattuwa"
