    Hey all. I've just joined the forums at long last! Work has had this site blocked deeming it non-work related so I've not had the presence here I'd like to have but I'm here now.

    If you're after news/confirmation on info being passed on to you by your local dealer...anything at all please ask and I'll be happy to do what I can for you all.

    Tiguan is a weird one at the moment. I'll relay what I can but please be aware that there is some information that even I don't know or if I do, can't pass on. I'll be as open as possible though

    Cheers

    Iain

    Welcome Ian

    I have a question that not even the VW Media sites can answer

    What is the wading depth of the Tiguan ?

    Skoda Scout coming out later this year might be worth a look. Probably be able to get my hands on one of these months earlier than a tiguan...

    I see the full brochure is now on the VWA website. I notice it seems like all the vehicles pictured have the optional New York style 18" wheels. I'm not so sure I like the look of the standard wheel (Boston) for the 147TSI but there is no picture of the car with the standard wheels that I can see. Only a picture of one wheel.

    The nearest I can find on the VWA site is the colour / option selector thingy that changes the wheels when you change models.

    Sat in a Tiguan today which means people who have ordered them should have one soon!

    Tigaun started shipping end of May / early June - we had one on order and picked it up June Long Weekend.

    Has anyone seen any on the roads?

    Good question.
    I think a Tiger can stand in water up to about 3 feet deep and Iguana's can swim fully submerged...

    So what then, is the wading depth of the Tiguan ?

    Serious answer to the question: approx 300mm or 1 foot.

    Reason is that - as I understand it - the doors are not water tight when closed - so go any deeper and your interior will get saturated.

    I'm getting a Tiguan on Friday.
    But only for 1 week. As VW are using my MK4 as part of the MK6 launch.


    No idea on the specs, I only know it is a TDI. Should be an excellent extended test drive.
