dear BHPens , just got the new touareg from mumbai , directly went to mahabaleshwar and then to my place aurangabad . had it driven for 1400kms approx till now . here are some pics for you at our fav. location of ellora caves with fellow bhpen ganesh_evo75 . some points ,
1. interiours are extreamly plush
2.power and torque are real handy and in abadance
3.ride is bit on harsh side
4.consumption is 8-9 approx on highways , in city expect 5-6 .
5.adaptive lamps are suprime and so is the 4 way AC
6.all the way feels robust
overall good product for that price range. simply better!

Must be the section after Daulatabad fort leading towards Ellora. Hope that it's Daulatabad fort in background in 2nd photo.

Very nice. I love the rear looks of this and find it better than the more popular Audi.

What made you go for the Touareg instead of the Q7 ?

How much is the OTR ?

Dear Qoattro4, i'll answer this one cause i remember as the same question was asked by few peoples at Ellora photo shoot...
Uniqueness and the Involvement is the area where i think Touareg scores over the Q7.
also, the Q7 is also more politician's choice nowadays, so the Touareg means Business ( corporate )
