        I believe the variant on the Touran is the 1.6 tdi that has passed.

        I looked at the Outlander PHEV 3 years ago but as I did not have a drive on my house is was unable to have one. You need a drive so as to plug it in. I am not sure if you have to pay for the electrical connection you need at your home address.

            You are not far wrong with your prediction there, it really bemuses me how VW got in this state in the first place. I know one of their excuses was that after dieselgate (which has now been extended to some petrol engines according to latest press) a lot of their test technicians left the company.

              Hi Cheis

              They are storing them at the new Berlin Airport. The airport is not due to open until 2020 so we might get a cars sometime next year lol

              When they come to shipping them it will be a logistical nightmare.

                There are a few dealers out there that so not treat Motability customers in the manner they should.

                You have nothing to lose by cancelling but may have something to gain. Of course check with other dealers before you do cancel

                  If that comes on the scheme it will be  a high AP I would imagine.

                    Totally agree with you Chris. There are dealers out there that choke when you mention discount. And there are some that offer great deals. If your dealer is JCT 600 you must be up here in Yorkshire area and Hull is only at the end of the M62/A63 and dealer is just past the bridge

                          The Sharan is built in Portugal I believe so it won’t have the Wolfsburg hang ups. The Touran, Tiguan and Golf are built at the Wolfsburg plant and that is the plant that is shutting down production 1 or 2 days a week to get cars through WLTP

                          I currently have the Sharan 2.0 tdi 150 DSG and it is a nice car.

                            VW live chat will tell you if it has a confirmed build week. I guess the dealer is telling an unconfirmed build week like mine has told me week 45 unconfirmed.

                              Looking at the VW WLTP list and especially the Passat and Arteon the engines compliant with WLTP are the 2.0 tdi 150 manual and the 2.0 tdi 190 DSG. So I guess they are getting there.

                                Hi Chris

                                In VW’s list of vehicles it is only certain engine variants that have WLTP credited, I know it is still not showing the same models but both the VW site and the ADAC site do not show a lot of VW models.

                                With the Touran I would imagine as the 1.5 tsi evo is one of their newer engines and I would have thought that will go through ok (but nothing certain there). Like the 1.0 tsi is the replacement to the 1.2 tsi and that engine has passed in the UP!.

                                It sure is a mad world and its enough to make anybodies headache.

                                  Hi Chris

                                  Its totally ridiculous. I cannot understand why VW have let this go on when to a degree they are to blame for all this with WLTP, I know governments want emissions as low as possible but with VW’s record you would have thought they would have been all over this WLTP so they could earn some extra Brownie points for being good boys and girls.

                                  When you look at this list;      (The list is updated daily)

                                  https://www.adac.de/infotestrat/umwelt-und-innovation/abgas/modelle_mit_euro_6d_temp/default.aspx

                                  It goes not give much confidence in what VW are doing.

                                  I was informed today I got an unconfirmed build week of week 45 which is the 5th Nov, so we will see how that pans out.

                                    It is £500 off the AP so only £499 as the AP is £999 and it was JCT 600 Hull

                                        The Highline is the equivalent to our SEL but as you say local markets differ with specs.

                                        You are right with the lights, the UK SEL does not even have LED daytime running lights.

                                            It looks as if Denmark is ahead of the game in advertising the 1.5 tsi evo in the Touran

                                                  The MPV has been overtaken by the SUV. When you compare the levels of spec between a Tiguan SEL and a Touran SEL its miles apart but will people pay for that equipment on a dated MPV?

                                                    I think it needs bringing in to line with other models. Looking at other VW models the SEL level of the Touran seems quite frugal on spec level.

                                                      It all looks a little futuristic and more concept looking.
