  • It's worth to mention again, above car was delivered to Poland.


    So as was mentioned, if your car was not produced yet, it will be MY18. In Poland dealers not inform their clients about change, not even on already made orders - so clients will get new model no matter they want it or not, and some of them are trying to push dealers about MY17 because of headlight washers for example.

    • My Yeti lease is up soon and I'm looking at a new Tiggy 110tdi Comfortline with both DAP and Luxury packages. I was hoping the lighting would have been upgraded for MY18 as forking over that much and still only getting basic halogens is very disappointing, especially when a poverty pack CX-5 has LED headlights.

      • Rooboy, you might also want to consider a 140TDI+DAP which is only $2000 more than the 110TDI+DAP+LP. Its very easy to spend your money

          You're right, it is very easy to spend money with them - I'd also want the sunroof which makes it $4k more and is just starting to stretch it a bit too much.

          • Update: did a test drive yesterday. Glad to report MY18 has adaptive lane guidance, traffic jam assist - confirmed by the literature in the showroom. So probably going to book that. The bummer- no delivery before Dec 2017!!!

                Is the literature public? And were you able to get a copy?

                  Nope, lit does not seem public. The showroom gave me a hard copy to read ,but not to keep. Very particular about it. The prod for Tiguan MY2018 is confirmed Week 22 / 2017 as per the hard copy. But did. There is pedestrian recognition, emergency assist too . So looks like an absolutely compelling package to me. The delivery date is the bummer, will different dealerships have different dates of delivery or am I out of luck in Australia ?

                    Looking around to see if other dealerships can offer a better delivery date. The dealership I talked to said the 162TSI are the hotselling ones and VW is just not able to cope up with demand.

                    • They're right and the time frame sounds right too.

                        I would suggest if you can rather than getting a 2017 my18, see if you can specify you want a 2018 my18 something like a January or February build with delivery in around March/April given current delivery times. You will be one of the first to get this model in Oz.

                        Otherwise worst case scenario try negotiate on a 2017 my18 162tsi especially if you are getting it delivered end of the year/early next year. Anything in $56-57k range with all 3 packs (if you want dap, rline, sunroof), metallic plus a couple of additions ie: boot tray, weathershields, euro plates etc is a winner. If you can get a lower price then better as this car will be '1 year old' come Jan 2018.

                        • There is no chance to get MY17 when not ordered yet. Of course if not taken from curently available on local dealer stock - or curently in delivery.

                            Thanks for the suggestion. Not sure I understand the 1 yr old bit though. The production of my18 is from week 22 2017,meaning - may end 2017. Wouldn't delivery in 2017 Dec make it 6 months old, rather than 1 yr? Or is it just the number?
                            I will try to negotiate a price on this, given delivery is so far away.

                              For future resale value build year is most important ie: 2017 or 2018. Month doesn't make too much difference. In general regarding all cars, that is why we see heavy promos come October/November to early the following year as dealers want to get rid of stock ie: get rid of 2017 build date stock as 2018 is arriving.

                              All the best with the purchase. It is a great car!

                                That's true. You can see some my17 stock 162tsi with rline pop up on carsales now.
