    After just picking up my 162tsi Sportline a mojnth ago, I will be watching closely. Absolutely recommend a resonator delete to be the first change as it makes it sounds like it should have from the factory.

    What a great "bang for buck" car.

    Thanks and yes the Sportline is great value. It’s just a pity that it was a “special” model.

    It’s partly why I ended up pushing the button when I did due to 1.8% finance along with the limited supply of these. There’s only a handful left around the country now.

    Congrats mate!

    She looks good. Perhaps just fast forward to a big turbo upgrade so we can get the show on the road. EFR7163 or GTX2867R would be great. That would be the new Franken-Munster that Guy built a few years back.

    Hahaha!

    Well the reason I bought the Sportline was due to tuning potential plus it comes with adaptive dampers and flappy paddles on the steering wheel plus the autonomous driver aids.

    Pretty much ever option I want without loading up the price with extras.

    I do have plans for this one but not going to be spending $35k in mods to make a Franken-Munster. I think a high flow IS38 may be on the cards down the track

    The Gen two GTX2867r is a solid lil turbo. Helped me punch 425whp on my 180sx. that would be alot of fun in a Tig

    Welcome to the Sportline club! Best value in the Tiguan range by a very long way.

    I'm enjoying my warranty, so no mods other than stereo stuff for now. Will live vicariously through yours if you do mod. Mine is copping an IS38 and tune to match first day out if warranty!

    Yes, though I'm not prepared to do a full engine build. At this stage my plans are to get to 250kwaw and in the 4's for 0-100. I think that's enough for a sleeper SUV.

    Agree that it's the sweet spot in terms of value / bang for buck. All the dealers were saying that the grid edition Golfs and Sportline Tiguans were the ones that were selling. Both are the in the sweet spot for performance and value.

    Yeah warranty is a bit of a concern for me but given the number of reported warranty claims coming up here I'm probably going to hedge my bets after the first service.

    Love the rims. Unique to the Sportline!
    Much nicer than the satin silver ones on my Highline.
