Supernaut Posted October 17, 2016 Posted October 17, 2016 There was an America-only car they did, which was basically a rebadged Chrysler Voyager. It was a massive flop. NorfolkNWeigh 1
NorfolkNWeigh Posted October 17, 2016 Posted October 17, 2016 There was an America-only car they did, which was basically a rebadged Chrysler Voyager. It was a massive flop.I didn't know this existed, just googled it and it's called the Routan, yes just a made up anagram of Touran which is a made up word anyway. VW cynical, rip off merchants who think all their customer are stupid? Surely not. Supernaut and Vince70 2
Pillock Posted October 17, 2016 Posted October 17, 2016 No thats the Touran ,the Tiguan is the baby Touareg which is a Golf based 4x4 but not a Golf Synchro , in fact most Tiguans are 2 wheel drive so just big Gols really but that would be the Golf Plus which is a Golf MPV that only seats 5 otherwise it would be a Touran .Clear?Good, you're welcome.Unless it's a pre-2007 Touran in which case the third row was an option. So it's a five seater MPV based on the golf chassis, but not the Golf plus which is the other five seater MPV based on the golf. Actually, I quite like our Touran. I get why it exists, it's nice and high and the third row is useful at times. But I'm meant to say something about it being VAG shite even though it's done 60k just being serviced every 15k, there's no broken trim, and it goes well despite averaging 50mpg.

rantingYoof Posted October 17, 2016 Posted October 17, 2016 The 2.5TDi was the same that went in the Skoda Superb that sounds awfully tempting but is also notorious for being exploderiffic?
twosmoke300 Posted October 17, 2016 Posted October 17, 2016 If it's the same motor as the t5 then run away
Lacquer Peel Posted October 17, 2016 Posted October 17, 2016 The 2.5TDi was the same that went in the Skoda Superb that sounds awfully tempting but is also notorious for being exploderiffic? I think it's a straight 5 TDI, the Superb's is a V6. NorfolkNWeigh 1
cort16 Posted October 17, 2016 Posted October 17, 2016 The Porsche is pretty much the same car but much uglier with thirstier engines and ruinous parts costs so therefore the obvious choice over the VAG. AMC Rebel 1
