Back in a VW. A Tiguan this time

Post by Paralla »

Bored at work so thought I'd drop by here and say Hi.

I used to have a Tdi 170 GT and was on here a lot. I traded the Roc for a Cayman S about 18 months ago which has been fantastic. I've been very lucky to secure a new Cayman GT4 that's due to arrive in Feb. Very excited. I sent the letter of intent way before it was even officially announced and then was at the Porsche dealer to pay a deposit the morning it was announced. Nobody knew way back then (January) how special or rare they have turned out to be. My S is a daily driver that's parked in front of my flat in London. It seems like the GT4 should be in a garage and not be used for my work commute in all weather. I think it will be a bit hard-core in central London traffic anyway.

I thought my Roc was a great car and ownership experience. So. I've ordered a new VW Tiguan that's arriving in a couple of weeks. I've been waiting for the GT4 for so long but I'm a bit excited to get the new Tiguan as well. It's a cheapish lease deal because its in its twighlight years but it will be fine. Its a 2.0 tdi 150 Match Edition 2WD manual. It was already built so couldn't chose any options. First (and probably only) thing will be a small sub to bolster the stock stereo.

Back in the VW fold.

The wife & I took out a 13 plate 177 r line tiguan last weekend, suprisingly it felt just like the Rocco only much higher up lol. It's definitely the car that the wife's hearts set on.

Although I have moved to a mk3 TT, I have not left the Board because I still like the Scirocco and think the members a good bunch.

Yep i like this forum too - i've got a golf mk6 1.4 tsi but this forum is much better than the US run golfmk6.com, and nearly every thing is relevant to the golf as a scirocco is a golf mk6 with a different shell and a wider track.

Tiguan has gone back to the Lease Company after two years. It's been replaced with A Golf R Estate which is very nice indeed. 150bhp Diesel to 310bhp petrol.
