🖼️VW Tiguan 2

We have just replaced our old Spacestar with this VW Tiguan. We have had the car for a couple of months now and in general we are very happy with it. The car feels very solid and drives just like a car not a big wobbly 4x4. The engine has enough power and pulls and accelerates really well. I have used the parking assist and it works OK although I still normally park manually. I have read several reviews by people not liking the electronic parking brake, but I think it is great. If I have any criticisms they are a very short 1st gear, which means you have to change gear within a second of starting to move. The ride on most roads is normally good but some surfaces do produce a strange 'giggly' ride (eg some concrete motorways). Also the fuel economy is not as good as I had hoped, maybe this will improve as the engine loosens up.
