    But I’m having problems with seating position I’ve got Ronnie Corbett legs and the base of the seat seems just a inch too long I’ve been getting dead leg and tight hamstring I bought a lumbar pad which just moves me slightly forward which gives me space behind my knees which is helping it maybe that it’s just the side bolsters because when I test drove i never noticed maybe they will soften slightly I’ve come from golf gtd so i realise its gonna be different. The thing with gtd sports seats which are the best seats I’ve ever had in a car is the side base bolsters end before the front of seat as to not foul the back of my leg but as for the tiguan itself lovely motor

    Thank you for this post Dave. I too am vertically challenged and have many issues with joints, and worse, one leg over 3 1/2 inches shorter than the other. I’m in an X1 right now with std seats and apart from the cloth which I, no other word for it-hate, I love them. The short seat pad is cause for many to complain but I find it perfect. The cloth makes them difficult for me to get in/out and is also like Velcro. We have dogs and the seats are awful for clinging onto hairs.
    Sorry, to my point of thanks, the Tiguan is top of my shortlist for next year, AP granted, but your comment has made me realise that I need to spend some time in one. My wife has a GLA with sports seats and I cannot spend more than 20 mins in it without being in crippling pain.

    ? I will be remembered for nothing but had great fun doing it ?
