Anyone actually work for VW?
« on: 04 September 2011, 18:22 »
Bit of a random one this, but I'm after some advice and wondered if anyone on here actually works for VW.

I'm about to get a new car, and the choices are as follows...........

1. new VW Touareg (base model @ £42k otr)
2. new VW Amorak (fully loaded @ £30k otr)
3. new VW Kombi Sportline (fully loaded @ £35k otr)

Basically, I need to be able to get on/off construction sites, so ground clearance is important (I know the Sportline is lowered, but its still higher than your average car). I do @ 1500 miles per week, so comfort is a must. I hate autos (the Touareg only comes in auto, but I could live with it) and I would need to take clients out in it twice a week.

I have no real knowledge of any of these 3 vehicles so I don't know what to look for with respect to the reliability side of things??

Any input guys would be appreciated..............

For the work you are doing then it has to be the Touareg but get a mk2.

Just because you're offended doesn't make you right.

You don't want any of those.

Dare I say the Amarok looks nice :lipsrsealed:
Passat B5.5 2.3 V5 170, with all the extras.

But for the purest engine experience, displacement has no replacement. All other methods are simply attempts to artificially recreate the benefits of displacement.

I like the AMORAK!

Good for the family, good on a building site and good price!  :smiley:
