New VW Tiguan
I find it increasingly difficult to keep up these days with the new cars, so you must understand my amazement this morning when I opened the Sunday paper to find a full colour 2-page ad of the new Tiguan. Can vaguely remember a spy pic of the new 'baby-Touareg' in some magazine a few months ago, but forgot about it. Old news to Wikipedia, though (see quote). So expect these pavement cruisers to appear on the roads with some female members of the majority race of our country, who can't drive at all, wearing oversized sunglasses and oversized earrings, behind the wheel, soon...

Re: New VW Tiguan

And it should go very nice.

Re: New VW Tiguan
Totally agree with flatfourfan. USED to be a huge VW supporter, but after MANY, MANY costly mistakes by various dealers I just had to give up on VWSA. I dont care how nice the Tiguan looks, and the fact that I read there is an entry level 1.4 Tiguan going for R247K, I also will not ever buy a modern VW in our country again.
Aircooled VW's are a different matter altogether though!

Re: New VW Tiguan
I used to race Honda's,best engines ever build.But I never ever had any shit with my VW's,and always have had great service from VW dealers.I suppose it varies from person to person,and from dealer to dealer.
