Been there, tried that Clay, as brilliant as a Tiguan is, the boot is way to small for it to be any real use as a true family car.Originally Posted by team_v
Babies are easy in a 3 door Gav, it's when they turn into teenagers when the complaints about getting into the rear becomes unbearableI think you are all soft down here.
We had a Corrado when our first baby arrived, 3 doors isn't such a big deal. Just don't take all that crap you read about in the baby magazines everywhere with you. It's really good job that Hummer don't make push chairs! Can you imagine what that would turn the world into.....
When people ask what you want them, to buy you for the baby, just get cash. It'll be more use in the future than onsies and bibs.
In fact, a mate of mine used to go to London from Manchester with his wife and 3 kids in a Pug 206. So an SUV is not an essential item.
Rant mode off
As brilliant a car as a Pog GTI is, sometimes the need for a newish reliable 5 door hatch for a growing family just outweighs the pleasure of owing it.
If I could find a way of keeping the Rok, the GTI, my bike and a newish 5door hatch, I'd never sell ..... Just too expensive and silly really
GLWS Ant, in a few months time when you want to see (and feel) what a 250kw RWD VW with space for the family and a few dogs is like let me know ....
And the new interior is actually quite nice for what is a real out of the box offroader... and that's my final point actually. We intend on touring, camping and exploring over the next few years and the Jeep is actually the best bang for buck when you start looking at options that put many other 4wds to shame off road. Also looking at the Defenders actually but the turbo diesel is a little thirsty compared to the Jeep.
