Great point - "Aero especially fron clearance is low and when you say deep spot...if the front lower margin on the Passat scrapes or almost scrapes as you come down or up the dip, so will the Aero, or worse"
The passat doesn't scrape, but having owned an 02 aero and a Viggen I know they would absolutely scrape on the bottom of this driveway. I didn't consider that at all. I would likely need to remove the lowest chin spoiler and save myself the headache.
