Whats the starting price for these, and do they make them in Diesel?
Are there any other decent 4x4s around. I think i saw a VW Toureg (?) the other day that looked alright.

Go for the Touareg unless you can afford a Gemballa Cayenne.

I cant afford either, its for my dad. he leases cars through his company, but me and my brother choose them. he does a minimum of 50 miles a day (like P-nut) so he needs a diesel. Its either a 4x4 or the a4 convertible 2.5 TDI

Wonder if the 700 means what I think? With Gemballa's reputation it must do!!!

Seen this interior?

Touraeg is just a Cayenne clone imo! Why is it that VW so obviously copies from other manufacturers? Just look at the passat (don't know if it's called that in UK...) it's an exact replica of Audi A4...!

So? That's not a reason to use the same designs! You don't see a Toyota and a Lexus being identical twins do you?

No, but they share platforms, and at the end of the day, its cheaper to produce similar vehicles. If the same design team worked on both projects, its bound to end up lookin similar.

Touraeg residuals are and will be shocking, if you really need one go for the Cayenne as the 2nd hand price will be way better
