Well I don’t think I will switch from a Jag to a VW but I would think about a high mileage BMW. Lol
One of my favorite cars I ever owned was a VW Passat I got my last tour in Germany.
I’d be at 130 mph so fast that it was hard holding it back. Loved that car. Brought it back to the states and promptly got speeding tickets and then hit a deer which did something to the transmission.
VW makes a great car. That said, so does BMW. Their 116D gets 54 mpg. That’s not bad at all.
