Last week I was allowed to sit in a Phaeton for the first time. And look, I probably fell in love After Audi A6 Avant and VW Touareg, I was more than surprised by the Phaeton. Now it’s clear that this is my new one; although it’s a used one, but still. The question now is after the engineization; the V8 or diesel of the V10 TDI are actually the only ones to be chosen; the V8 was described to me as very reliable and a little cheaper in service costs. Of course, the fuel consumption is higher than the diesel (14-15 liters?) The V10 TDI is just a real force, but it’s expensive in maintenance and (can) cause more problems than the V8; (2 turbochargers, 750NM – too high for the transmission ….) The strong torque will also be on the tires, brakes, … know That would actually speak for the V8 again. Since I ride between 30,000 and 40,000km a year, the choice is even more difficult. Are there big differences between the equipment? Since my not so many Phaeton has sold your answers, I very much hope for the experts!
