Re: Could you live without the Adaptive Chassis Control?

No I couldn't live without it. Leaving the car in comfort is sacrilege in my opinion, comfort is for cruising on long journeys. If you want to go round corners with a smile on your face then sport is a must. Zero body roll, poise, beautiful turn in and composure, minimal understeer on progressive ex...

Damaged in Transit!

I'm gutted as I feel that my car is already broken before I've got my hands on it, plus they wont tell me exactly the extent of the damage. Is this right in your opi...

Re: What's your Build Date? (Estimated or Confirmed)

Ordered mine this week and have a delivery date of January 9th. I reckon this is pretty finger in the wind stuff from VW though judging by the rest of the posts on here!

Re: Electronic Parking Brake

The sales guy described it as the same as in the new audi a4/a3 which look like the tiguan pic above. Also in a lot of the online finance quoting websites it is described as 'electronic parking brake with hill hold assist'

In any case, I'll let you know what turns up!

On my test drive I was a bit put off by the position of the handbrake and thought I would go for the electronic parking brake option.
