  • NEW PRICE: £21,210 - £31,145
  • USED PRICE: From £12,650

With the Tiguan, Volkswagen has done in the compact 4x4 market what it did with its Touareg full-size off-roader: it's created a winner. The VW Golf-based Tiguan is less practical than the larger Touran but still makes a useful family vehicle.

Latest model: VW Tiguan (2008-)

New Volkswagen Tiguan reviews

The VW Tiguan may have arrived late to the 4x4 party, but it's offering stiff competition for the Toyota RAV4 and Honda CR-V. The Tiguan is useful and spacious yet manageable to drive, and is offered in two-wheel drive and four-wheel drive versions. A great all-rounder.

The VW Tiguan went on sale in 2008 and is keeping its value well. Older models are proving to be a pretty reliable too - very much following the recent performance of the VW Golf on which it's based. Check out our detailed report for more.
