VW passat "Wolfsburg Edition" - deecee

Hi all, today i saw a VW passat that looked very much like my own standard W plate car. Obvious difference at this fleeting glance was the badge in the middle of the boot. In stead of the standard VW was a brown badge with the wolf's head in the middle and "Wolfsburg Edition" (or similar) around the edge. A quick search on the net points to the USA but I'd swear it was right hand drive but may be wrong. Can anybody enlighten me please. Thanks, Deecee.

google came up with this
tinyurl.com/2xcevv
my take?
man had been on his jollies and bought the badges while there,
think of it like people used to collect sea shell off the sea shore when in clacton

VW passat "Wolfsburg Edition" - blue_haddock

It's not difficult to get Wolsfburg badges - there were a few very limited wolfsburg edition golfs but nowadays most cars badged up are wolfsburg are just imitations, i'd hazard a guess that this passat is one too
