I have ordered/received my New Tiguan

Nice one aven.

Did you get sunroof? Is this a TDI or TSI? How's the drive?

Thank you for the photo, look so impressive even though without R line. Nice color. Aven, are these seats a bit small and not really comfortable ?

[GrantRogers]

gather your white R line is a diesel, right?

Yeah that's right

Nah, no sunroof. DAP is the only option I got. It's the TDI; drives pretty good. The diesel is pretty pokey and the ride is comfortable and quiet. I have a MK7 golf R as well and although they are not in the same league in terms of handling you can tell they are related if you know what I mean. It's easily bigger than the golf too, though doesn't feel like it when you drive it.

Front or back? Front seats are a bit firm but pretty comfy with plenty of adjustment and has saveable settings for different drivers. Rear seats are pretty similar feel and can adjust for more leg room or more space. You could fit 3 adults in the back as long as they weren't professional wrestlers...

Thanks. Can I ask what your mileage is like (to a tank) so far? I wonder if this improves as the car wears in.

I do get you about the handling, I thought the same thing in comparison to my Golf. Once my Mrs drives these wheels into the nearest KERB, I will probably get some 20/21 inch rims but otherwise I'm happy.

Funny thing is, the 162TSI highline is probably faster 0-100 and 1/4 mile than a 162TSI R-Line due to weight? Could be wrong.

Around the 800km to a tank range at the moment. Should improve a bit I would think. I'm gonna go for the 20's as well. You could well be right about the highline being quicker; would be pretty negligible though...

Yeah I'm sure any difference in acceleration will be resolved once bigger rims go on. Fuel economy sounds great on the diesel.

I already have my eye on the 20s I want.

Aven, i meant both front and back seats. If you said so, i wont be worried anymore. Because the seat look not so big compare to the other car i guessed.

I picked up my White R Line yesterday and am pretty happy with it. Need to find someone to tune this engine though.

What? How? Petrol or Diesel?
