Beat you.

Not as in depth as the Gen 1 Tiguan videos in the video thread though.

The "Painshop" is a bit worrying
The other VWs in the background I think are Tourans, can't remember them at Wolfsburg. Saw no Golfs in the video either.
Dislike the ungloved find-defect-by-touch in the paintshop, this is not normal. Maybe only for the camera.
No polyurethane underbody spraying shown
Skips the engine and transmission dressup, engine stuffing and underbody assembly, window insertion door buildup
The wheel nut guy with the cantool is a legend. Though that job is normally automated.
As it goes onto the test rolls, you see the Tig rock side to side as it goes over some bumps to exercise and settle the suspension before headlamp alignment. Simple and clever. I've never seen foglamps aligned before.

Which part?

The spelling mistake? Defect detection by touch? Or the female worker (my guess formerly East German) with the 3 o'clock shadow?
