    Agreed with both of the above.

    OP what are your requirements? Focus and Passat are very different cars. Budget also?

    In that case keep what you have. Better the devil you know.

    In fairness I have a 1.6 petrol and she's tough enough on juice. But hey its way better than the passat, if you want a bigger car get a mondeo. Bullet proof in most area's.
