Hi Newyork1,
my Touran was the 1.4 dsg and agree, excellent. I’ve only done 130 miles in almost four weeks, but did a few motorway miles yesterday and very refined cruiser. Not good to run in doing short journeys, so will risk the Fine and try longer runs. The gearing is slightly lower, I suspect to counter the higher mass, except 7 th which is still @ 2100 rpm at 70. Performance seems similar. Fully loaded might be a different story. Will let you know, but have no regrets choosing the Allspace or the 1.5 TSi. Guess the Tarraco is virtually identical. My choice boiled down to the Allspace’s panoramic roof vs. Tarraco’s leather seats! I couldn’t test drive either and took a punt. Hope it comes back in April at a lower AP.
