Helluva Car

After 2,000 miles, car is just great. Have Audi A8 with similar engine. Both awsome. However, shifting from D3,D2,D1 or back up again, car goes into "no where land". Punch the gas, nothing. Also, nobody can figure out how to install XM Satellite Radio.

After seeing the Toureg I tried to not to fall in love with it. But once I test drove it I was a gonner! I am still being amazed by some of the thoughtful features I continue to discover each time I drive it. This is the SUV Mercedes should have built.

My first two weeks in a V8 Touareg

I opened the door of a black V8 equipped with a cognac colored leather interior - reminiscent of a nicely worn baseball glove. The look was of clean German lines with plush British detail - perfect! Hop on the seat and you know this car is solid. I drove one which allowed me to set the suspension to its most road-worthy setting. This vehicle cornered like my BMW. I leased it the next business day and I've never had so much fun driving anything. The gas mileage, however, is dreadful. I'd only trade it for a Porsche Cayenne; but that's about $15,000 more and the gas milage is reported to be as brutal. J. Longo Somerset County, New Jersey

Caveat Emptor

2004 Volkswagen Touareg V6 AWD 4dr SUV (3.2L 6cyl 6A)

We bought this T-reg with 7K miles from fleet use. We are very glad we bought the extended warranty, as this car has required over $6K in repairs over the last year. Finally traded it in this week with 97K miles on the odometer. This vehicle performed well in all weather and road conditions. We live in Minnesota where the snow and ice can come quick and strong, and the T-reg could handle all conditions, with good style and comfort. The V6 is a bit underpowered for a vehicle this heavy, but we did not do any towing, so we were OK. There was not enough room in the driver's seat for my 6'2" frame, so I would frequently get uncomfortable on long drives. Reliability problems are bad.
