Touareg purchase

[nilalani]

G'day,
I am looking to purchase a Touareg v10 as our family car and was wondering if anyone has any advice on parts costs, vehicle issues, servicing costs in comparison with other vehicles or any other info that may be useful in helping make the decision. Any help/advice appreciated.

Are you buying new or secondhand? What vehicles did you have in the past? Did you road tested V10 already?
