- 2011 Golf TDI (Gone But not Forgotten), 2013 Tiguan SE 4 Motion
First off I want to say what a wonderful group of people everyone is here and I really learned a lot from you. I hope I was at least some point helpful as well.
I went in to my Dealer to activate my 2 $500 gift cards today, while doing so, A friend that's a sales person motioned at me and we started talking about possibly trading off my Beloved TDI, just lets run some numbers, using the $1000 as a down payment.. he asked wheat I wanted..A Tiguan 4 Motion, automatic, and loaded as possible.. They actually wanted to do some dealing since they had finally were able to sell Tiguan's again now with their clock spring recall issue settled..
I am now the proud driver, since the bank owns it..lol of a 2012 Tiguan 4Motion SE 2. 29k miles, not a CPO rig because it has Factory warranty left, and Ill buy extended before it runs out. It has everything my TDI had, and more.. Not a tech package but I have leather, no nav, or Bi Xenons, the RDC-510 Ver 2 with HD radio. Wild Cherry Metallic, Corn Silk Interior.
With my degrading health I needed something easier to get in and out of and a bit more room, and possibly able to tow with it.. and its a lot better riding even with 235/50R18 tires..it does not pound my kidneys and back as hard..
I will miss the TDI Fuel Mileage, but as much local running around, short trips, and what not, I wasn't doing the Diesel any favors..
I am unable to say what I paid for the Tiguan, but I got it well south of book, they really helped me into exactly what I wanted..So much more I can do now with this, and rekindle my old photography hobby and it has the Off Road Package, so I can get back to places I havent been in ages. and with the 4WD i dint have to worry about the passes in the winter..
Enjoy, feel free to message me anytime if one of my old posts brings anything up..
