Were Cars Better in 2001? A Look at the VW Passat B5.5 | Silent walkaround

Описание: Welcome back to CzechCarGuy. Today, we're exploring a question many car enthusiasts ask: were cars simply built better back then?

Our subject is a 2001 Volkswagen Passat (B5.5), a car from what many consider the 'golden era' of VW build quality. This isn't just any Passat, either. It's the top-tier Highline model with the legendary 2.8 V6 engine and 4Motion all-wheel drive, showing 222,000 km on the odometer. We're here to see how nearly a quarter-century of existence has treated it.

Join me for this detailed, no-talking silent walkaround. We'll examine every panel, feel the satisfying click of every button, and appreciate the high-quality materials that defined this era. This is a pure automotive ASMR experience, celebrating an icon of engineering when "overbuilt" was a compliment.

This car was a direct competitor to the Audi A4 (B6), BMW 3 Series (E46), and the Mercedes-Benz C-Class (W203) of its time. How do you think it compares?
