I also see Mitsubishi are coming out with a newer 1.8 diesel version of the ASX and in 4WD with 150g/km CO2 emissions
I've driven a Tiguan 2wd 2.0Tdi. I can't think of anything more pointless than a Golf that handles badly and uses more fuel. As a 4wd it might have a point, but I'd say you'd be better off with an A3 quattro if there is one in a similar price range.
I also believe that the Tiguan is in very, very short supply for Ireland. Even though you don't see many on the roads, demand outstripped supply this year and VW Ireland couldn't get anywhere near as many production slots as they wanted for 2011.
I had the Mitsi ASX 2wd for a weekend last month - that 1.8Td engine of theirs is a cracker. Interior was OK, back of it is very imposing and the EVO (ish) front end makes it stand out. Looks a bit girly from the side though
The ASX will be a good buy in a few years time, but I'd leave what I reckon will be frightening depreciation to someone else :cool:0 -

Honestjohn gives them the thumbs up and they look a top car, well spec'd and practical
Oh sweet god: I thought it looked good too, tbh. But that was an ad. Then I saw and was in one in Real Life. What a tinny piece of...........rubbish.
Of course you could try tell your SO that it's not a Japanese car -but a Turkish one. Turkish delight it ain't.
At least the Skoda is made in Europe. Ode To The Motorist
“And my existence, while grotesque and incomprehensible to you, generates funds to the exchequer. You don't want to acknowledge that as truth because, deep down in places you don't talk about at the Green Party, you want me on that road, you need me on that road. We use words like freedom, enjoyment, sport and community. We use these words as the backbone of a life spent instilling those values in our families and loved ones. You use them as a punch line. I have neither the time nor the inclination to explain myself to a man who rises and sleeps under the tax revenue and the very freedom to spend it that I provide, and then questions the manner in which I provide it. I would rather you just said "thank you" and went on your way. Otherwise I suggest you pick up a bus pass and get the ********* ********* off the road”

I feel your pain. We were looking a while back at what we might get next as we'll need something bigger than our S40 if we're going to expand the clan.
We'd gone up to look at a Superb Estate and I stopped in the forecourt to look at the Yeti. She could sense I took an instant liking to it... "keep walking" was the only thing she said.
Urban Cruiser though... LOL!0 -

You would fit the Yeti into the back of the Superb estate it soooo big!
Drove the 2 liter Yeti yesterday, and was taken with it, drives well, and a bit of poke as well.
thanks to all above for comments.0 -

from the few online reveiws I've read of the Tiguan it says it drives & handles very well and is probably one of the best in class for ride & handlingI've driven a Tiguan 2wd 2.0Tdi.

Didn't think it was as good as the ASX. The 2wd is really just a high Golf and did nothing for me at all.Lex Luthor wrote: »Any news on my Insignia?
This one?
In the garage and will be ready 4th or 5th January 0 -
