I looked at the Passat wagon when our first was on the way about two years ago. I went with the 9-5 aero wagon of the same year instead and haven't regretted it yet. It was significantly cheaper and much better equipped. Plus, I know how saabs work so I knew I wasn't going to be taken for a ride by the mechanic. With the savings, I was able to be proactive on the maintenance and got some brand new tires. I still have thousands to go before I get to the Passat wagon price and I am driving a better car. My recommendation: if you want a BMW, trade in your lemon (that's what it sounds like) and get a BMW wagon. Otherwise, I'd suggest going with a saab 9-5 or 9-3 wagon. Don't sweat disrupting your 5 yr cycle as you didn't pick this car.
