My Tiguan journey comes to an end tomorrow.
So after waiting 9 months to get it, owning it for 2 years and 9 months, it all comes to an end tomorrow. Why so soon? Well i had my heart set on getting a new SQ5 and thought getting one in the last couple of weeks of the FY would give the best chance of a deal. Alas i could not bring myself to stump up another 75k on top of my Tiggy, to get the Audi. But in new car searching and expanding my horizons, i stumbled across the new Focus ST and a quick test drive really sparked my interest. Fuggin thing goes and sounds loverly and i collect a brand new one tomorrow and the first one the supplying Ford dealer has sold.
So some quick thoughts on the Tiggy and the new Focus.
1. My white R Line is still a great looking car. The Focus, not so much.
2. My bottom has never liked the drivers seat after about 20mins (and i have an ongoing coccyx issue).
3. The Tiggy has been faultless, has not cost a penny more to run than std services and pretty economic (@7.5 lt/100 on a reasonable run).
4. The Focus is not a VW, or Euro car of any sort really and will be the first Ford i have ever owned.
5. The Focus is not a VW.
6. The Focus is not a VW.
So that's my story and who knows where i will go in 3 years time, when i swap again,
