Afraid I've just suspended my search for a new Passat. Will have another look when the fuss has died down a bit, and when we know whether all the European cars affected will have to be detuned. Suddenly, my old 57 reg turbo diesel (pre-common rail) has never looked so attractive.

Unless, that is, some desperate dealer makes me an offer I really can't refuse?
