Which Avant Wagon should I get--B5 or B6? Assume miles are equal.
Is the 1.8T the same on both of these cars?
Which one has a better tranny---both manual and Auto?

Which one easier to work on?
Other reasons to buy or to avoid either model?

We just got a B7 Sedan and I love it, I am currently driving a Jetta 1.8T Auto wagon and would now like to upgrade, plus I spend 40 days a year in the mtns snowboarding --so the Quattro would help--- but not sure which one is better.
