Volkswagen Tiguan

2.0 TDI 140 4Motion S - The Tiguan has entered a jam-packed and competitive market but will probably still do well, mainly due to the desirable Volkswagen badge. It doesn’t offer anything dissimilar from the already recogniz... read more

Volkswagen Tiguan Tiguan Sport 140 PS Auto 2009

5 star review

After many enjoyable years with Mitsubishi (space wagons) I never thought a more enjoyable car would come to hand but our Tiguan Sport 140 PS Auto has surpassed all our expectations! Totally superb, build quality is as expected; the best. The drive is like sitting on a magic carpet. No, we have no connection to VW; just pleased we chose our VW Tiguan.

Volkswagen Tiguan 1.4 TSI Petrol 2009

5 star review

Very impressed with this vehicle, the performance of the 1.4 Petrol engine is unbelievable for a car of this size. Comfortable driving position and ease of controls makes for a relaxed journey. A car I would recommend you try.

Volkswagen Tiguan SE TDi 2008

4 star review

I chose this car after a great deal of research. Much preferred it to the Freelander, which doesn’t compare in internal quality and rolls more. Don’t need great off-road capability, but I do need the security of 4wd as I live in the countryside where muddy roads and standing water are a regular hazard. The CRV is a good buy but soooo ugly. Quite liked the Kuga, but a bit girly for a middle-aged man! After 1000 miles I have 44mpg on the Tiguan, the car drives very well and my passengers rate it higher than my previous Audi A4 and A6. The only complaint I have is that the lumbar support is useless. By the way, I can’t agree that the boot is huge, but it is adequate. In black it serves well as both a smart compact exec and it works as a practical car for the weekends. Oh, and the sunroof is great too.

Volkswagen Tiguan 2.0 TD 2007

5 star review

Brilliantly built, extremely reliable, a joy to drive and very comfortable. The 2 litre engine has exactly the right amount of power and gives me 40mpg which is stunning for a 4x4. The boot is HUGE and the inside of the Tiguan is beautifully laid out with the ability to adjustment everything to your liking. The Tiguan is the perfect 4x4 for a family.

Volkswagen Tiguan 1.4 TSI 150 SE 5dr 2007

4 star review

I have recently test driven and I am very impressed with this addition to the 4x4 market. The Tiguan feels very solid and safe, as you’d epect of a Volkswagon, and the handling is superb. The interior is very comfortable indeed and the engine is extremely quiet. The only downside I’d say is that the rear visibility isn’t that brilliant although you can opt for rear parking sensors. The best I’ve test driven so far and you can’t really go wrong with a Volkswagon can you?
