My experiment with non VW diesels is about to end, and I am thinking about buying a 2013 Passat SE with a 6 speed manual. The following is a history report on the one I'm considering:

It looks like a rental car that's been in a couple of fender benders. The accidents don't show up in other areas of the report. I'm of mixed mind - not thrilled with the accidents, or the fact that it was likely driven pretty hard, but at least I know maintenance was done on it.
Opinions?
