My wife and I own a Passat turbo diesel estate and a diesel Shogun, both of which we are very pleased with. We are now retired and wish to only have one vehicle. We live on an un-adopted road, which is never cleared of snow, and having had 4WDs since 1959, we like the higher access and vision. My wife suffers from arthritis and needs an automatic. Our local main dealers is Volkswagen and we are interested in the new Tiguan. We are looking at the new purchase as probably our last car, so we want durability, reliability, the ability to tow and a bit of fun to drive, and reasonable economy. We shall probably tow 4-5000 miles out of 15,000 miles per annum. Please would you advise on the Tiguan or any alternative?
