Your a lucky man Doc two good cars. The Yeti is cracking family transport and If I was going back to a 4 x 4 It would be the yeti after reading your spec and price. It looks a hell of a bargain

Here's the spec:

Yeti Elegance 2.0 TDI CR 140PS 4x4 DSG In Brilliant Silver Metallic with the following options:

1. 12 speaker soundsystem - RA1
2. Elec heated, adjustable & foldable, auto-dimming door mirrors with memory function and boarding- spots - PW8
3. Electrically adjustable drivers seat with lumbar support and memory function - PWB
4. Heated windscreen - PH5
5. Panoramic sunroof (electrically sliding and tilting) - PK3
6. Park distance control (front and rear sensors) - 7X2
7. Preparation for towbar - PKZ
8. Temporary space-saver spare wheel with car jack and false boot floor - PJA
9. Textile floor mats - 0TD
10. Tyre pressure monitoring - 7K9

It has leather, active bi-Xenons, touch screen radio, Bluetooth etc as standard.

I'll be fitting OEM Nav and upgrading he Bluetooth to RSAP version of course.

Ready for a very l o n g wait now.

How much will the R-Line Tiguan cost? Are they actually on the market now in the form of the new facelift Tiguan? Tempted to switch over to the SUV but don't want VW announcing that there'll be a new generation Tiguan coming out in late 2012 or 2013. I like my cars to keep up with the times.

They've just facelifted it so it will be that way for a good few years.

I'll be looking around £22500 for Mrs Docs which is a '60 plate in white with the following factory spec...

R-line 2.0 TDI CR with 4WD and DSG
Leather trim
Nav (factory)
Electric drivers seat
Heated seats
Reverse cam
Cruise
Auto self park thingy with front and rear sensors
Retractable towbar
Off road button

There is more but I can't remember of the top of my head.

My left nut is telling me to buy a Tiguan at the moment. 4WD DSG a must.

Just had a look on VW's website under new cars and can't see the R-Line version? Has this model been discontinued?????

p.s. right nut saying another buy another GTI

How comes there are used R-Line Tig's on VW site then? Have they now discontinued this model?
