Wullie 1 Posted July 3, 2015 the son thing is contemplating buying an Eos. Anybody know anything about them? Good? Bad? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chuggs1 10 Posted July 3, 2015 Well its a VW so at least that parts right - actually user reviews are generally very good on Autotrader http://www.autotrader.co.uk/car-reviews/volkswagen/eos/f105e925274b14c0ffb622f8f790fe40 Quote mixed reviews on What Car http://www.whatcar.com/car-reviews/volkswagen/eos-cc/readers-reviews/25564-16 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thursdave 10 Posted July 3, 2015 eos is the german spelling for "leaks like a seive." - avoid. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wullie 1 Posted July 3, 2015 eos is the german spelling for "leaks like a seive." - avoid. Just been looking at the links above and it does appear that the roof can be a major problem. Had a bit of a flashback moment to the C when someone complained about the headlights. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
VAG-hag 0 Posted July 3, 2015 I really like how they look and its a golf so is mostly sound.... but yes they all leak. Get him a 'rado :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Had a bit of a flashback moment to the C when someone complained about the headlights. One of the things I've learnt working in a VW garage is that Eos's leak. It's just what they do. If he's set on a convertible, a golf cab would be a much better choice - for some reason they leak a lot less! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wullie 1 Posted July 6, 2015 Thanks guys for the comments. He's decided against the Eos. He has also decided against a Corrado, says he doesn't want to turn into his father, lying in the driveway most weekends all oily alternately cursing, weeping and cheering. Don't know where he got that idea. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
