Should I choose a Passat or a Citroen C5?

Which would you choose? Volkswagen Passat 1.6 TDI BlueMotion Comfortline or the Citroen C5 1.6 eHDi VTR+NAV (both four-door saloons)?

Hi Michael,

I guess it depends on what year you are looking at and how much you intend to spend, but personally in most cases I would opt for the Passat, because, if you are spending your own money, it is likely to be worth quite a bit more in residual value in 2-3 years time. 

If you give us more information on your requirements then we can give a more considered response as a result.
