€48,745 for a hyundai now each to their own and all that but thats ridiculous, its a small suv to

It's not a small SUV it's a medium sized one. A small SUV would be a Ford Puma or a Nissan Juke or one of them small VW things. I can not remember what they are called because they are so mundane and boring with no redeeming features on them at all.

I think it’s the T-Pot you’re thinking of.

If you want to be technical about it, the puma and juke are crossovers and not suv's.

The Tucson, Tiguan, Kuga etc are crossovers too.

I believe Tucson is a mid-size SUV.

Again there is no exact definition out there, so one can argue.

For me

4wd / Awd = SUV
FWD = Crossover

So I'd go as far as saying a certain model can be either depending on above.

The VW T-Pot that's it. I have seen some T-pots with more style than a lot of VWs.

You can blame that on the boy racers driving them too fast too load and pumping smoke out of them. That and there lack of any style or bravery in there design at all.

Maybe you could convince me to change my mind.

Up til now I had only seen them in decent spec and good colours - but let’s just say Garda stickers and tiny wheels is not a good look on them.

Haha very funny I genuinely never heard it called that

I do love VW but I also really like the skoda kodiaq and superb and I am liking the Nissan X trail to,the volvo XC90 to

How are you owners finding the headlight performance?

Whenever I see one I wonder how the multiple small lights compare.

I know a headlight should be a given but my old Audi A4 B6 was terrible, almost dangerous, whereas my current Mondeo Mk4 is great, almost don't need full beams.

Kodiaq looks great in meteor grey with sportline trim. But that means the ****ty sportline seats.
You'd get two x trails for the price of an XC90.

My eyesight is far from what it was even 5 years ago, so headlights for me are very important.
My v90 headlights are very good I think, I'd an 04 audi A3 before and the headlights weren't good at all, certainly got me with my eyesight. What year was your A4? Probably same lights as my A3.

May be someone already mentioned here. have you thought about Toyota 2021 RAV 4 SOL, comapared to Tucson it is cheaper and got decent spec.

I had a 02 so probably same setup as your A3. I'm urban based so rarely drive in pitch black but my god when I had to it was bad, the beam just didn't seem to reach that far ahead of the car. I thought it was faulty but numerous checks NCT and alignments all had it as correct.

Just had me wondering how this Tucson's headlight setup works, with it made up of so many small sections.

The LED headlights and LED daytime running lights are excellent in my Executive Plus model. This version also has static bending lights which are useful around corners. The base model has halogen bulbs, which I don't really like.

I was living rurally for over three years before the end of December. In really dark places. I found driving in the dark really took it out of me mentally and the ****ty headlights were definitely a big factor. Got a car with good lights and moved soon after! 02 A4 and 04 A3 would be the same headlights I'm sure.

Just to clarify those small lights are daytime lights, main headlights are down below.
