Volkswagen Tiguan used car review

Which used Volkswagen Tiguan do we recommend?

The 1.4 TSI engine is an interesting choice, but we’ll stick with the 140hp 2.0-litre turbodiesel for its broad spread of talents. It’s economical, quick and well understood by used car specialists.That’s assuming you don’t mind owning a diesel.

The Volkswagen Tiguan is designed primarily for driving around town and on the motorway – and this is reflected in its strengths. It’s easy to drive, comfortable and agile enough for quick lane changes. Top models can even park themselves (either parallel or into a car park space) at the push of a button. All the driver needs to do is line the car up and control the brakes and accelerator – the steering is done automatically.

Prices and demand are still quite strong, but supply is plentiful, so make sure you take time, check it out thoroughly and pick the very best example.
