In their own words

Was looking for a new car that carries three children and having owned a VW a few years back decided to go for the Touran for its practical side. Having come from an Audi A6 2017 black edition wanted something sporty (ish) so opted for the R Line DSG with all the extras including leather seat, pan roof, heated seats, self park, electric tail gate and key less opening and start to name a few. The car is very versatile but quite plastic inside and the premium feel is lacking for a car that is priced well above it’s competition in this area. The MPG is shockingly bad even in eco mode, issues with the hand free (echo) in speakers very distracting and the leather (Vienna) is really disappointing. Started to sag and dent after a few trips out and looks like it’s done over 100,000 miles already. It has its good points but overall I would not recommend.
