How many Tiguans have been built?

And considering she said no to any station wagon (no R36 ) then Tig is about the only sensible option.

A Stg2 Tig is quicker than a R36 anyway .... (.... just don't tell anyone as they seem to get upset when you do .... the truth hurts too much .... )

Well, my missus is currently driving a VW Passat V6 SE with all the options, so she was never going to settle for anything that didn't have similar levels of refinement, quality, and luxury. Which according to her ruled out anything Aus or Jap made.

my otherhalf loves the feeling of the TIG, she says she feels in control of it!
not too big and easy to see out of.

Should have to put an expression of interest if you want to purchase one...

and that of course would rule out any soccer mums being able to buy one!

But the R's allure still keeps me focused then ....

mmm, golf R or 135i? choices, choices...

My Mrs wont drive my Tig after scratching it THE FIRST DAY SHE EVER DROVE IT!!! "it is too big" she said!

I've had the Tig for about a month now and my Mrs still hasn't crossed over to the driver's side! Starting to run out of excuses already...

OK i'm not really that bad. Honestly she just hates to drive.

petrol vs diesel

i wonder which one was produced more?

Petrol.

North America doesn't get the TDI option.
We get 2 petrols and 1 diesel option.
Europe gets more petrol variants than diesel as well.

Only thing that may sway this guess is that europeans are very easy to go with Diesel cars as they get rebates etc.
Whilst here we get slugged andextra 2.5k for the priviledge of being better for the environment.

Singapore also doesn't get the TDI, only the the 2 petrol versions with 4motion. I'm quite surprised they don't offer the FWD option there as it's 100% urban and there is nowhere you can go off road. There is also no snow to worry about.

And the cost of a 125TSI Tig in Singapore starts at.... $87,000. Well, at least they got Heidi Klum to advertise the Tig over there.

BTW 145,002 does not inc Chinese built Tiguans

Thanks Ben,

Wow that is plenty more than I thought!

How do the numbers in Aust compare? Petrol vs Diesel etc...

[phaeton]

Don't know

Too many Tiguans

There are now TOO MANY Tiguans on the road .....

Just did the drive Brisbane => Sydney => Brisbane this weekend and spotted more than 20 Tiguans ..... (more than any other VW on the way)

2 weekends ago did Brisbane => Bundaberg => Brisbane and spotted 13 Tiguans ....

Its getting too common now ... ... time to get something more exclusive ...

[Tigger]

Hey dont worry Sharkie...yours is exclusive....!!!

Not too many with the mods like yours, so I wouldnt be worried. Most we see are just non-car loving soccer mums who do not appreciate the Tig for what it is...

We can all enjoy our "enhanced" Tigs with pride!
