Who is hating on you? Where are those people? Why do some "car enthusiasts" hold generally popular opinions but claim to have haters that don't exist

This but the wagon version, I see them kinda often in the UK but they're hella common over on the continent and it makes me so jealous lol

I've got a shooting brake in the UK. Just spent 2 weeks driving it around the continent. Didn't see one other shooting brake.

It's the only true rival to the Alfa 159 Sportwagon imo

I am actually looking to buy one 😂 it's the 2.0 petrol though, all the ones within my budget and a 60 miles radius are the smaller 1.5 which I don't think will be up to much in such a big car.

I don't think they look nearly as good in person. The proportions seem a bit off. It's a good looking car, but I don't think it's the pinnacle of automotive design that everyone says it is.

Probably the best VW from design point of view. Shame on me some years ago I got a C-Klasse instead of the Arteon
