    So it didn't go quite as well as I'd hoped I'm down for a July delivery. Did have the clause in the contract and after much deliberations and this being my mid-life crisis car, I thought bugger it, will wait it out and not compromise what I wanted as had toyed with removing Rline from the order or looking for something else. Nothing else in this segment really interested me except for perhaps the new Audi Q2, but feel it'd be to small and not enough go compared to the 162TSI

    So the big wait begins.

    Keep the pics coming and descriptions of first drives etc, will help pass the time away
    That's annoying mate... worth the wait though. Drove most cars in the price range / class and agree, all underwhelming. Number two for me would be the Lexus, but was never going to do that. Porsche/BMW/Land Rover/Merc mini SUVs too much $$ for the value delivered in my opinion!

    You never know, someone may cancel and you could be bumped up. I was lucky to call the dealer at the right time and had already heavily negotiated a regional dealer down (for a September delivery) which allowed me to pressure the new dealer (saying I wanted black).

    This forum has been a life saver, easy to pass the time!

    • I have had my new 162tsi for 5 days now and am very happy with it. I have not found anything I don't like or didn't expect. Probably due to the great information from the dedicated VW Tiguan fanatics on this site.
      I have one query though, did you get a luggage net included with your new Tiggy?
      Now Tiguan 162 TSI, R-line, DA, Pure White.
      Past 2011 Passat TDI Highline wagon (which never had a problem in 125,000kms).

        • Hi all, anyone interested that hasn't purchased yet, there is a sub 50k d/away RLine 140TDI available for sale on carsales. Apparently has some hail damage, but the add suggests minor. Worth a look for anyone living in the area. Too far for me, and I've locked in my 162 in any case. Good luck

              I just got off the phone with my dealer. He said mine was pushed back a month so it's more like end June for it to be ready to be picked up..

                  No offers. But I didn't want to over the phone. What i did was email him asking for some freebies as at least if he commits I have it on email as proof

                          Will see how much I get stuffed around and might pull out the deal if they frustrate me too much

                              • Mine did that once just after I got it. I just deleted the connection profile on my phone and in the car then reconnected and it worked and never had a problem since.
