MY18.5 or MY19 - Difference ? Should I Wait ?

[FastMitch]

Hi team - I’ve just received two different quotes for a MY19 Tiguan 162 (w/ sound and vision pack and r-line) and the new Tiguan Wolfsburg. The price difference is $2,600.

To my mind the additions for that amount are:
-Heads up display
-Black exterior trim enhancements
-90% rear window tint

Does anyone reckon those extra items are worth 2.6k? Doesn’t sound like it?

Thanks!

Not worth the $2.6k in my view especially as the HUD are a gimmick in the VW one that's offered with the plastic pop-up

What price did you get for the Y19 Tiguan 162 (w/ sound and vision pack and r-line) ?

Quoted 57.1k (with some discounts), pretty good deal I reckon!

Hi all - I see MY19 models are quoted as coming with ‘ambient interior lighting’ - does anybody know/think this will be the multi-coloured lighting options of other models or the same single LED blue lights as in the previous MYs?

I believe the ambient lighting is set to the one colour.

White - Highline Tiguan
Red - GTI
Blue - Golf R

I was hoping this would be changeable but now that I have an R I'm glad it's unique.

FYI. The Wolfsburg profile is now in the VW Aust order books. Just as previously posted no sunroof available on any of the 1st 500 MY19 Wolfsburgs. Got my contract updated and was advised that delivery will be end Oct early Nov. They await allocation to confirm colour choice. Thanks to the Taps for keeping all well informed. In my negotiations I have had the knowledge the dealer didn't.

From what I saw, the dealers have their allocations including colours. One dealer showed me the email on the screen.

In civilization I expect that is so. I am in the west so we get the dregs of everything - I am telling the dealer stuff the dealer should be telling me. It could be they are doing the old allocation shuffle.

The VW Australia website has just updated the online configurator with the MY19 models - I just noticed there seems to be a new colour/design for the rear bumper / diffuser on the R-Line models changing from black to silver. I hope they stick to black for the Wolfsburg edition otherwise the silver is going to look a bit out of place!

Good catch. I prefer the black diffuser too. My order is expected to arrive at the docks today 13/10. Hopefully we see official pics soon.

Interesting - I don’t see any suggestion on the equipment lists for front passenger electric seat nor heated outer rear seats - something everyone was expecting in the MY19 update to reflect what was on the Allspace. Thoughts?
