How much should I pay... Tiguan pricing.

**cubes** · 17-08-2009, 04:33 PM

December delivery is pretty good with a recent purchase, I bought in late june and got told my Tig on the boat and estimated for A November delivery guessing they gave themselves a bit a of leeway so I might scrape in for an october delivery for my birthday.

Thanks. I have input my details, saved 10%. Apart from the $ saving, I tried a car broker and am really happy as it took away all of the annoying haggling.

Car dealerships are not much fun, especially on a Saturday, and the broker was quick, transparent and probably saved me $$$s. If anyone is looking here to buy, I would highly recommend using a good one.

Finally, the dealer has been really professional and helpful. Maybe the car broker takes away stress for them too!

I notice dogbowl got a tank of fuel. Thanks for mentioning that.
The dealer told me that mine was half full of fuel, in line with the dealership policy - was I happy with that?
I was, as I had to go, but it was clear that if I had asked for it they would have topped it off with no questions asked.
Might be a VW Policy, or ensuring their Satisfaction Rating is not affected - so when they ring you to come and pick up the car, all you have to do is ask them to fill the tank, and they will!

Which makes me think, how much is it (roughly) to fill a Tiguan mid week? $70-$80?

In Sydney diesel is about $1.26 a litre, so $70-$80 is if you're filling an empty tank.

When I took delivery of my Tig from Chatswood Classic Cars it had a full tank and I thought nothing of it. I didn't realise there were dealers that let new cars off the showroom floor with less than a full tank! Used cars I know it's common practice to barely have enough in the tank to make the nearest servo, but new cars... come on!

I got a full tank too, thought that was the standard. Haven't had to fill up yet... still going on what they gave me

Noticed that diesel is cheaper than ULP out my way at the moment, yippee

the last 3 vdubs we have bought all came with full tanks of fuel (not the same dealer)... thought it was standard these days.

Hi All,

Just wondering how my deal stacks up. Just signed on the dotted line on a:

Tiguan 147 (5N12V3/10 - so i think i'm getting the 2010 model)
Black Metallic Paint
Black Leather with the electric seat
Sunroof
3 year warranty extension (now 6 years)
Boot Tray
Premium Plates
Mats (but i think they are included anyway)
Full tank
Free loan car, probably a golf or something if my delivery date of late November isn't fulfiled.

Pretty happy with the timing considering how long others have to wait.

All for $48,500 drive away.

I think thats a solid discount right?
