2017 Tiguan Australian Brochure

I'll pass, $4000 for that, really?

Lol how much more do you want for 4k? Whats 4k these days? I'd say its not a bad price for everything you get... not the best but not too bad. I guess if you are at the max of your budget then you won't see it as a good deal but for some, there is no tiguan without the r line pack

[Gladbach]

Tend to agree. I'd probably pay $2k for the ACC and progressive steering alone, so $2k for the body kit and interior features isn't bad. I'm probably more annoyed about having to pay $2k for the sunroof and $2k for the DAP, both of these should be standard in the highline IMO (and that of some of the journos as well).

Couldn't agree more. The sunroof for sure should be included.

[newVWplease]

No no no. There are many people who do not want a sunroof. I am glad it is an option in the Highline, just wish it was taken out of the Luxury package so I could get the Comfortline.

Something I just noticed for the R-Line pack:

"Black headlining and pillar trim"
.
Do you think this means that the roof lining is black? I really wouldn't want that!

Yes it does and I think it looks much better. Have a look at this video at 4:40 and it shows you the standard 2 tone interior, dark door panels then light pillars and roof lining: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zdHMW9NTWTs

If you look at this video at 5:27 it shows you the dark lining: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1biGk8uX4fM

Having seen both I much prefer the dark lining.

I have watched some of that first guys vids and i can never take him seriously with his creeper of a voice.

Thanks for posting that. Personally I prefer the lighter tone for the roof lining and pillar trim so I'm a bit disappointed.

[Gladbach]

Definitely glad I'm getting the sunroof, I recon it would be a bit dark and gloomy without it.

@NZ_GolfR - here's one from your backyard: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AQHlmwiDqmo Roof lining at 2:05.

For me, it's too dark.

I was looking for that one but couldn't find it, I was searching for 2017 Tiguan though which would explain it.
I have the dark roof lining in my Golf R so used to it and prefer it, never was much of a fan of light coloured interior.

In the brochure it says tailgate easy open easy close.

Is this a wave/kick foot to open and close?

Or does close require to press a button?

I think easy close is where it detects that you walked away and it closes automatically - it probably senses the key is no longer behind the car

[Gladbach]

It also opens with the wave of a foot (pretty sure I saw this in an Australian video review).
