From your checking on forums, what is the lowest price you've seen paid for FY18.5 Tiguan Highline 162TSI (DAP, R-line, Sunroof, Boot-liner) ?
Thanks that’d be great. Those prices above were the best I’d seen for MY18/18.5 - varied depending on State. But nothing better than 56,815 or “under 57”.
About a year ago a couple of people got 56.5 for fully loaded white versions.

So if you end up getting 56 flat, that’ll be the new best.
I started with a broker price then called around seeing if anyone could beat it. Ended up with a good deal on a sportline. In the broker’s defence their price was very competitive straight off the bat. I managed to save about $1k by haggling further.
Everybody here is trying to prove that they got the best discount poss believe what u will. Ours cost 57K+2.6 for 2 ex warranty, wouldn't move on that.

I seriously don’t believe that’s the case at all. I read this thread, as I imagine others did, to research the price and options so that I could make an informed decision as to how much I was prepared to pay and what method I would employ to purchase my vehicle. It is literally impossible with the range of options and variables to compare each individual purchase ‘apple for apples’ anyways.

I think it's useful information when people are negotiating a deal.
You'll almost always get a better deal form a dealer who has the car in stock and wants/needs to shift it.
If the car has to get transported interstate then there's less room to move as the deal has to include the freight cost for shifting the car from dealer A to dealer B.
I'm currently looking at a fully loaded Sportline on the 1.8% finance deal. Interested to see what deals others have done with metallic paint and sunroof.

To it! Just picked up my Sportline a few weeks ago and love it.

We are also interested in the 1.8% finance. Difficult decision between sportline and fully loaded 132tsi. We love the DAP and the luxury package has some nice features also but the sportline gets the larger 162tsi and led headlights. The sportline may also hold its value better??? We have only driven the 132tsi and it felt adequate power wise for our needs.
Alternate option is the cx5 akera. Bit cheaper but felt smaller inside. We took it for a test drive and although we felt the interior was nice the engine felt lethargic compared to the 132tsi. The ride also felt a bit firm on the cx5 although this may also be the case for the sportline with larger lower profile tyres.

It's 1.2 seconds slower than the 162 engine.. not much in it really if your not going to modify and keep stock and you are happy with the power output.

You might as well go Highline if your after DAP and are considering a luxury package 132tsi. With some negotiating the highline will only be about $1500 more. It will have everything the comfortline has but sunroof.
Annoying that they extended the 1.8% to the 132 and 162 as I would have taken that up when I was buying. But happy for those who take advantage of it.

Yes the major factor being the 1.8% is only available on the Trendline, Comfortline and Sportline. So it makes the Highline a lot less attractive when you’re comparing monthly repayments.
I’m currently just under $50k for a MY18 (2017 build) new Sportline with metallic paint and sunroof. It’s a reasonable deal given the car has to come from interstate. The only hang up I have is getting a MY18 car without the extra USB ports (not a major deal-breaker) but the extra depreciation on the 2017 build is more of a concern as it’ll hurt me at the other end.
We looked at the difference and the Sportline scores most of the options we were after. On my initial enquiries with a dealer I was told that to get the tech I wanted (ie radar cruise control and lane guidance etc) I would have needed to buy the Highline with the DAP option. However on further investigation I found the Sportline comes with all the tech, it just doesn’t have the digital display. The digital display wasn’t an option I was too concerned with nor leather, so in a our case the Sportline ticked all the boxes (the high line was above our budget anyway). Further the Sportline scores the dynamic chassis control which I believe the Highline doesn’t unless specified with the R line package? (Happy to be corrected on that one). The final point was availability to obtain 1.8 finance on the Sportline which made it a very attractive purchase financially.
The bang for buck model is the Sportline, if you want all the bells and whistles you’re paying around $9k more for a fully optioned Highline.
That said if I could have afforded a fully loaded Highline I would’ve bought one, they look sensational.
Where are you located, I was able to get an MY18.5 with sunroof delivered cheaper than you’ve mentioned. I can point you in the right direction if you’re in NSW or happy to travel, send me a PM.
