Welcome to the new look VWWatercooled

After much work and little sleep there is a new version of the forums running on more powerful and recent hardware as well as an upgraded software platform.

Things are mostly the same, but some things are a little different. We will be learning together, so please post questions (and answers if you've worked things out) in the help thread.

The new forum software is an upgraded version of what came before, it's mostly the same but also a little different. Hopefully easier to use and more stable than before. We are learning together here, so please be patient. If you have questions, please post them here. If you have worked something out and can provide an answer,

    The wait for the new Toureg continues. As does the wait for an Amarok with rear airbags. The September face-lift isn't getting them either. Another FAIL!

    VW are starting to lose the plot a little bit with the bigger cars. Which I guess isn't surprising since the bulk of their sales is Golf sized or smaller.
    It's interesting how people seeing things differently.

    I see it completely opposite as the car in my eyes is a 5+2 seater, we won't be carting around more than 5 that often so the rear seats will be down, making the boot HUGE. Having tried out the rear seats there for kids only or a jockey sized adult, so for our purposes it's absolutely perfect.

      I am 100% ++ in the same boat
      We have 2 kids under 5 and hardly a need for the 7 seats. But from time to time have family that we like to take on road trips and having the option of moving the 5 year old to the back allowing 2 comfy seats next to the baby seat is perfect for my situation.

      The Tiguan is amazing but the boot was slightly worrying whereas the allspace boot is just amazing for my needs.

        I think this will tick the boxes for you

          I am in the same situation with my family of wife and 3 yo and 3mth old. The Tiguan Allspace has the best 2nd row, plenty of room for the baby capsule and child seat, and plenty of room for the pram. The only time I expect to use 3rd row is if we need to bring the kids grandparents or friends occasionally. The allspace is a winner for young families. Sure I could get a caddy maxi or Honda Odyssey, but neither of those will let me drive like a hot hatch in the way home after I drop off the kids at kiddy!

              You are probably the first white r line allspace owner in the country.

              When i was negotiating the fleet conpany said there was a car available at the end if july. My dealer stepped in a bettered the quote so i went with him but yeah i think yours is probably the only one out so far

                Our dealer stated the initial delivery was for the dealers to get some in the showrooms and for test drives, you must have got one of those.

                All the reviews came out a week or 2 ago when the car was officially released, so the initial orders from the factory are starting to arrive in the coming week(s). Reckon they'll start to filter out onto the roads during September onwards in greater numbers.

                  Tiguan boot space is non-existent. Tiguan Allspace boot space is SMALL with the seats down and non-existent with the seats up.

                  What planet is everyone living on these days that they think space is adequate in these sorts of car? The Allspace would be OK is the seats could be removed, but when folded down they completely compromise the rear boot space.

                  This is not possible in any Tiguan!

                    but in our planet, some people have Corgi or Chihuahua. for those people Tiguan boot space is more than adequate.
                    there's no one size fit all unfortunately.

                      For your situation I completely agree, however the people buying the allspace dont have the requirement to cart a masive dog.

                      If i needed such a big boot, I probably would look at an amarok or the likes.

                      It depends on what you need and what suits your needs, for some of us here we need a boot just slightly bigger than a regular tig hence the allspace is perfect but again thats our situation...it varies

                        This should be a bit bigger and cost not too much more.

                              Yours must have been on the same boat as mine. The 'Morning Celine' docked this morning. Is anyone else's tiggy on this boat? Did your dealer tell you when they will be doing handover?
