262,000 miles on my Touareg and still running good. Has always been dependable. Never got stuck in snow, ice, or deep water
September 9, 2022The VW Touareg V10 TDI is so powerful and solid. It is the best car I have ever owned, and that is saying a lot because I have owned a lot of really top notch cars. It's lots of fun to drive and it is well-loaded with lots of yummy technology. Mine is in a lovely blue-silver color that is hard to find, and is no longer available in the newer models.
August 1, 2008Car is almost perfect. I wish they put 8 speed transmission in these things. Besides that I have no real complaints. The power and comfort is unparalleled. A very utilitarian vehicle that is fun to drive. Rare find and in exceptional condition.

June 5, 2014This is a fantastic vehicle to own and drive,I think the Tuareg is the better of the 3 vehicles Porsche Cayenne,Audi Q7 and VW Tuareg. It is a solid affordable vehicle that has a great owner retention opposed to the other SUV.
June 23, 2013I have owned this SUV for over a year. This thing runs great, only 1 warranty issue so far, the horn burnt out. That said I was on my way to Kingston and called the Dealer and they scheduled me right in! This things hauls butt, a little hard on fuel but smooth as silk. I have the air suspension and it really softens the ride. A buddy of mine has one without, I can notice the difference.
September 5, 2008Good performance for an SUV, stong V6 engine with surprisingly good acceleration, generally well built but with a few little faults that dealer doesnt seem to be able to fix. Very bad dealer service in Slovakia. Very capable off road, specious and comfortable. I would recommend this car to anyone.
August 9, 2008this car is very comfortable and has a service advantage, if you like european cars and want to drive SUV then go for it
January 8, 2008This is the ultimate 4X4. Forget the Rangey and forget Clarkson's or anybody who's British reviews. This car has saved my life on a couple of occasions. The only negative is the hesitant turbo in sticky situations (got me in a mess once) and the instrumentation/ computer. Finally after sending it a few times to the garage, they've got it fixed. Now its awesome! That V10 engine growl is almost like sex.
December 23, 2007Better than any american or asian SUV, but would prefer X5 due to handling.
March 18, 2008Non but its own kind is what I describe this Suv its durable and safety measures is great, if it wasnt for the recall it could go for ever.
