I have ordered/received my New Tiguan

[Gladbach]

Yeah, my wife told me the other night that the Tiguan better be good because I've spent so much time researching and playing around!

I am becoming even harder to live with. We 162TSI people have had our cars ordered for weeks and have no idea how they will perform, how they drive, how cool they will be or wether they are going to be as desirable as we all hope for.
When are we going to know something? Maybe VW are hiding something embarrassing ..... they've done it before.

Yeah I can't believe we still don't have a photo of a 162TSI. We don't even have a clue what the exhausts look like yet...

Same here, so can't believe how often a day I am checking the Australian and German sites for new information- kinda obsessive behavior right- I also though I would never buy a car that I haven't actually test driven but if I would have done that then I would be in my old car till Christmas 2017

I'm doing the same. I don't know how many YouTube videos I've watched and forum threads I've read! I didn't think I'd ever order a car without a test drive either. After driving the 140TDI R-Line I was happy enough though, assuming the 162TSI will perform better (of course, that was still after I had put an order in).

By the way, is your username short for Deutschland? It's what you hear being chanted when the German national team are playing

I feel the same... I've driven the 132, not as sprightly as I would have liked but felt the potential if fitted with the 162. I too had already ordered my R Line by this stage... I ordered it purely on looks. Dropped into to my dealer on the weekend to see the TDI R Line and wasn't disappointed in the look department... I didn't drive it... didn't need to. Unfortunately it was the Iridium Grey which I don't feel allows the black trim and chrome to truly BLING, but the thing that impressed me the most was the wheels... firstly how big are they?(rhetorical) they look brilliant!

That's right... Schland!!!

You definitely aren't alone, I have my daily (often multiple times a day) routine of reading this forum as well as the UK and German (well the bad Google Translation at least) forum sites. Pretty certain I know more about these cars than my dealer ever will now.

Judging from the German forum site they have started receiving the 162TSI over there and they are coming with the fake dual trapezoid exhaust with proper exhaust behind each side so slightly better than the BiTDI. Don't imagine they would have a different exhaust setup for over here.
