Hi all

Found this thread was great for figuring what to offer for the Tig we just bought (currently on a boat somewhere to Oz). Heres what we got:

132tsi Pacific with usual comfort pack and other bits, sunroof, black, manual, tints, carpet mats, boot mat, drive away... $37.5k.

OH and I are still debating the pros/cons of 18" wheels... I'm keen

18" wheels should be okay for comfort, i would't go any bigger though.
Best bet is to hit up some aftermarket suppliers, i know rotiform is having a 50% off sale for black friday.

What do I get for the extra $12k with the 155 over the 132 apart from the 7sp dsg?

Not a heap. There's upsized alloys, upgraded seats, chrome trims around the windows/roof rails, upgraded stereo and of course the 155kW tune instead of 132kW on the same engine. Peak power is up in the 155 but torque figures are the same. Plus if you want DSG you either have to go diesel or the 155 at the moment.

Given that VW are throwing in the comfort pack in the "Pacific" it does make the 2 packages a lot closer in spec and makes the 132 pretty good value.

An extra red "S" in the badge from memory.

Got my new Tiguan on order.
Candy White 132TSI Pacific with the usual extras.
Leather
DSG (Dealer informs me that new Pacifics are ordered with this now)
$42.5k

Was quite a nice surprise to hear the DSG is coming back, but with a quoted time of 6 months, it had better be good.

I was speaking with one of the dealers in Canberra on Friday and they mentioned the pacific will be getting the DSG again starting production week 49 onwards and retaining the extras.

Also that the other models may be getting the extras that the pacific model has at no extra cost.

Is that the 7speed dsg? - because that's the only reason I would go the 155.

Yes, the 7 speed dsg instead of the 6 speed auto, in the 132 tsi Pacific.
