Traded in the wife's car

[The Architect]

Yous guys twins?

Not twins.  The same person, just another personality.  

(Just one more entertaining reason to attend DIMBY.)



I hope your wife enjoys the car!

I wish the car had the air suspension. This will do just fine. Probably won't take it off road. That's what the F150 (it'll be here on Wed) is for...

I allways thought there was something missing from my life 

How about you Nate   

No seriously Nakid "congrat's" it's a lovely bit of kit but over here in jolly old England the price of gas puts ordinary mortals like me off such vehicle's 

My good lady has a nice little diesel powered 1 series bmw which returns quite a good gas milage so good on you and your good lady may your gas price's stay low compared to ours

I keep trying to talk the wife into one...she wants the tiguan, but I want her to get the toureg...It looks like it might be more fun for playing around offroad....and I want the TDI

[That Nice Guy Beck!]

nice ..a buddy of mine has a cayenne ... same vehicle except for the badge

the suspension raising is cool  ....an amazingly enough very capable off road  ( real off roading )

thats a stretch my boy has a cayenne turbo and its nothing like the toreg

You're right, the VW has a true off road 4X4 with selectable low range, the Audi and Porshe variants do not...

Way to keep the motor industry alive.   

I'd like to get a couple new vehicles right about now..I'm sure a few good deals to be had..but the current plans don't call for it.

My great grandparents on my moms side were Brits...

who knows?

[yamifixer]

Please don't let my wife know. She want's one of those bad.

[NAKID]

So far, a lot of the people I have talked to have said the same thing. I've been driving it for the past few days and I really like it...

the suspension raising is cool  ....

When it works or doesn't get stuck in the full "up" position.

Let's see..........

That system has been repaired three times.


the main computer system has been replaced twice.


And I can't tell you how many times it went in to turn that damn "low tire pressure" sensor off.


Hopefully VW fixed their problems and you will have an incident free ownership.

What year is it? Apparently the 2004/2005's had quite a few issues that had to be worked out. For the 08's they seemed to have gotten most of them fixed...

It is a 2007.


This one weighs around 8,000lbs or close to it.

I remember the dealer saying that when they bought it.

Your dealer is on drugs.  The V6 is a tad over 5,000 pounds and the V8 is a tad over 5,300 pounds.  Maybe that explains why he couldn't fix it either.
