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.

Think it's truly weird that we have all these ads, granted they are overseas but here in Oz we don't even have an R Line on the roads yet. Yet they promo this model as the flagship in all regards.GOLF GTI MY11 ADIDAS Candy White, Sunroof

I like all 3. There is another add showing the safety feature of automatic braking. They did not use a Tiguan. It is very good watching.Ordered: 2017 build date Tiguan 162 TSI Highline with DAP in Tungsten Silver and rear luggage tray. ETA: late April / Early May. I did not have to wait.

And this one from Japan, very informative! (Seen too many Chinese Tiguan vids that I accidentally took it for Chinese, thanks Gladbach)

hehe, it's Japanese, but yeah.
A few interesting things:
-Obviously they get the HID, we don't but it's apparently not that great anyway.
-When they explain the ACC and Lane Assist, it then mentions Traffic Assist, which is interesting. The Passat has traffic jam assist which is specifically designed for traffic situations. As far as I'm aware, the AUS/NZ version only has ACC and lane assist, which while it is still useful in traffic, is not as smooth as the traffic jam assist feature. I wish we had that.
-When they demo the park assist, I noticed that the car finished in a position where the wheels were still turned out. That would really annoy me, but hey, I'd never use the function anyway.
-I thought it was strange that they showed someone struggling to open the boot of another car in the car park so they could show how awesome the Tiguan is with the auto open boot feature - but it was another VW that the other person was struggling with. I'm surprised that they dissed a VW
-The LED headlights demo was interesting. I know we get dynamic cornering lights, but what they showed was the beam adjusting to other cars around it. That looks more like Matrix LEDs, which we don't get.
-This series of ads reminded me of how much I love Japanese ads/TV in general. Just something about the language and culture that's awesome. I think I'm due for a trip to Japan - only been there once, and my wife hasn't been, so it's on the list!

I'm disappointed that the engine/exhaust sound in the video obviously is false (especially since I was expecting that kind of sound), I don't hear that from my 162kw R-line. It's actually the only thing that I'm disappointed about, but then again, quite a large disappointment....Originally posted by Gladbach View Post
There is also another variation of these clips that has a lot of growling engine sound in it, all through the video. When I find it again I'll post it here. It's from Volkswagen Russia:

Not a typical Japanese family or settings - a woman driving her husband and him being in the back seat, the housing estate etc actually felt like it was shot in SoCal. I was a regular visitor to Japan for 16 years but to be fair it has been 6-7 years since I was last there.

LOL, when I saw that advert the first time, it made me consider if I should cancel my order...
The most appealing VW Tiguan advertising for me, came from Poland. Marketing an "intelligent lifestyle". There's a series of 10 videos, each one highlighting different aspects. This is the first one of the series.
