The engine was left running for over an hour to charge the battery. |

I don't think idling a car for that long is a very nice thing to do, I know you have time strain but maybe either driving it to somewhere or getting the battery charged overnight was a better idea. |

My local dealership has a Grey Highline demo car on sale for 30 Lacs on road. It has 18k miles on it, manufactured in 2017 and received by dealer in Feb 2018. They say it will be registered to my as the first owner. Anyone have any experience buying a demo car? Is this a good price for a two year old demo car? |

I would certainly not pay that much for a used and probably abused demo car. A brand new highline was going for 33 Lakhs on road at the end of last year. Wait till end of the year or March next year during the changeover to BS VI, you will get even better deals. |

It screams that it must have been abused to the core and highway-abused too, since your location is Coimbatore. If it was available at around 20L+, then the offer could have made more sense. |

Kumar, my recommendation - don't buy it. These vehicles are abused by the people during test rides. A quality used vehicle will be a safer bet than this one. Regards Nikhil |

....If you are ready to wait it seem VW is planning AllSpace for our market as well. In any case, Tiguan is not in the stock and there are no clear answers from the dealers. So you may want to reach out to them and find out more on this. IMO, other than the power, Endeavour is just too big and massive which is its plus point when compared with Tiguan. All the best! |

An update on the Tiguan, last week I had to go for an important meeting in the morning and to my great consternation the Tiguan simply failed to start. I turned the key and a few lights blinked and nothing happened. I tried multiple times, but to no avail .....

Dear Friends, Would have loved even more if VW has given it in the higher tune. |
