I suggest this car to newbies for its amazing visibility! You almost feel like as if you're walking, the road is on your hand. Park assist will help you to adapts faster to its size, if you're scared of it. Air conditioning is very good, and if you need to transport something, there's plenty of room for that. Engine is indestructible.
can't wait my mum is getting the 1.6 tdi bluemotion se my mum was going to buy a ford c-max or an s-max before seeing this now she's getting a touran thanks Mat.
Good review, regardless of engines, I see where the new one improves, more space and all seats fold flat, I only have 3 kids, but these cars would suit me, be very handy if you buy flat pack stuff or 2nd hand furniture
we have just brought one of these with the1.6 TDI and its got ample power to over take. you also forget your driving a diesel as its so quite. this guy must have bat hearing.
+animalization Trolls VW trolls. Just say anything good about a crap car. Trolls . hey do you get paid to make up good things about VW. And then insult people who tell the truth. Lowest piece of crap
I'm not bothered about removing the seats, i just want a 5 seats, BIG boot, powerfull diesel engine, automatic with good mpg, and the 170dsg will be the one for me :-)
Minute 3:45 Stop pretending. The chair might be heavy, but not as heavy as you pretend it to be ......... I can pick up two chairs from my touran with no problems , and i am not a bodybuilder
I FUCKING MISSED THE LIKE BUTTON!!! SORRY Mat, that dislike was me. I really like your reviews, seriously. And this helped me understand where do those dislikes come from in your previous reviews, hmm..
I like this car, VW's are tough and last forever, silly middle seats though, what is the point in removing them? just make them able to be placed flat.
Park assist ??? What is the point of this its madness , if a driver can not reverse park a car this size the they should not have a driveing licence. .lol... BEWEAR THIS CAR HAS NO SPARE WHEEL absolute crazy if you have a bad blow out on a wheel a silly repair kit will not fix it , and a callout from your break down provider will be required for a tow to a garage.
@@lazycarper7925 oh you're a the book says person....got ya....my tumble dryer book says it will dry an 8kg load in an hour and 10 minutes...it takes 2 hours...don't be a the book says kinda guy.
Well in my country we would not buy the s max as ford is not popular here and the support isnt good. Thus even thou they are of the same price the touran or grand picasso is a better option
I'm sorry, but this one looks as dull as dishwater, that peugeot you reviewed looks much better :o) Lol, as usual, love the humor you injec t into these vids, makes up for the boring car lol :o) Most mpv drivers (mums on the school run) are so unobservant, they will still manage to crash it with the auto park ;o) As you say, it doesn't waste time being something that it's not......but there again, it COULD have been something it's not.....interesting :o)
Making or buying touran is a worse decision.The worse ever touran made and still sold in 21st century. You can not call it car or van just call it touran.it does not make any sense what it is.Touran still does not have a spare tyre or still could not solve the problem of getting blind spot when you are driving.I would not buy a tootooran in my life again.
We bought one of these brand new in 2003 - 14 years on and it has never let us down
Hi owen.
which touran model would you recommend i buy. Im in Kenya.
2012 or 2013
@@njorogemburu7792 both

Love how theres so many reviews of cars I can afford. keep em coming
Have you decided yet?

@carbuyer thanks fr uploading so many videos!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! u guys are no.1 in car reviews
I agree

Yooka: Ayo, that’s the BMW from a previous video review!
You are the best car reviewer on the internet!!! :D

I've had the 1.6 diesel in a Passat I found it gutless with a couple of passengers. The 2 litre 140 bhp is much better
the touran is the best we have an automatic
i had to listen again the wife part with moving.you should get an oscar.very good and funny
So do most cars in the UK come with a manual shifter standard? I'd say about 80% of the cars in the states are automatic.
@carbuyer Did u guys use a Different Camera? Even at 360p the quality is exceptional with great color saturation.

I called a delearship owner can you get 5 seats on the vw touran he said yes
I have never in my life seen a parking space that big! cant see how its possible to park itself in a real life parking spot ...
You'd be amazed
I screamed when his car almost hit the red BWM while using automatic parking asist, lol
the 2003-present Volkswagen Touran/ Volkswagen Golf Touran (J) is assembled in
Wolfsburg, Germany
Jakarta, Indonesia
Mat, how different is Touran to drive compared to Golf?
Is 1.4 tsi , 150hps, 2010 year a good one ? Please, help..
Lovely car
yep it's a fantastic car for family's as it is versatile and spacious
Absolutely love your reviews! Exellent as always!
. P
I have 2007 1.4 tsi touran with 143 k km. Engine makes a wired noise when I start from a cold start. Is it a problem or normal? Please let me know
Normal
I would love to see Matt as a fourth presenter on Top Gear. Or start a new show with Chris Harris and one of the guys from Autocar.
well, he almost has done that.

If you want an mpv the seat Alhambra is nice
What year is this car ? is it 2011 ?
I like this car, VW's are tough and last forever, silly middle seats though, what is the point in removing them? just make them able to be placed flat.
2:05 how it's possible with monual gear box?
Super videó, thank you.
Which car do you think Mat owns?? =O
Is this car with metan.
Park assist ??? What is the point of this its madness , if a driver can not reverse park a car this size the they should not have a driveing licence. .lol...

Hovermotion you be surprised how many people can’t park even if they been driving a few years lol
No it's just modern technology which eventually the car will do everything. No point staying in the past when time doesn't holdback...
very good but why talking about the park assist !? you spend 15s to make a demo with it... and with the tiguan you test again.. park assist...
@Ragref Why?
Where can I place my spare wheel
my dad is gonna get this car.
@lhrmeonom yeah it worked, cheers mate=D
@alexrebo I think he owns a Vauxhall Astra and a Mazda MX5.
why wouldn't it be possible with a manual gearbox??? You just put the gear in reverse and control it with the pedals...
my father bought fiat doblo 1.4 this VW is better then the fiat
My 2004 2.0tdi has everything this does apart from park assist..it does almost 70mpg at 60mph
70mpg id be hard pushed to believe more than 53 going of fuely and other drivers feedback
@@lazycarper7925 nope i do 18 thousand miles a year and averages 68 to 71mpg...used daily
@@tomthehighlandexplorer8085 the book mpg is only 53?

good review fair play but acted like a real wimp getting the seats out :))
@MacGyver920 Good Then why didn't you do so?
Cool-car!
Love this car come with park assit. But still seat Alhambra is nicer n cheaper
@lcsxwtian I bet it isn't anywhere near London...
Delivery time = forever. Ordered one in the beginning of Jan. Have not received it yet. Bummer!
Has it arrived yet
I WANT THE PARKING TECHNOLOGY !!
You got it yet?
@TheHornyHomunculus Huh, that's weird. Where I live, the people I know consider it a novelty that I drive a stick.
3:16 he sounds a bit like Quentin Wilson
@Ragref It's alright :) I was btw.
Mat, you may move in with me
at 3:49 he hurt his head! hahaha that hurt...
Nice
@lennartkns well, if it's taxi, it means this car is pretty durable :)

Great car, why have most of the VW car range now got the same steering wheel as the VW transporter van it looks nice though!!! WELL DONE VW!!!
I'm more concerned about his marriage, his wife kicks him out over a washing machine problem? Fickle.
Nice 🚗
It's great car
LOL Mat whatson
Well in my country we would not buy the s max as ford is not popular here and the support isnt good. Thus even thou they are of the same price the touran or grand picasso is a better option
hubert Quek What country are you from?
Has he just apologized to his wife in camara while cheking the storage space in this VW box?
That's idioticaly romantic.. 0:55, pay attention
Just realised he has lost so much weight
If you need park assist you shouldn't be driving.Just saying!
2010 facelift
@nikhilkash92 I didn't care if I would be first or second or thinrd or whatever, I'm not like you.
For the price youd be stupid to choose this car instead of S-max.
jedsebastian S-max is amerikano Rubish
multi perpose veichale (cant spell it lol)
I hope wife let's you back in house. At least on the couch.
fiat is the same as this car
1:52 i saw an BMW

for testing such cars with 7 seats you should bring some kids with .. 🚼🚼
Seat Alhambra is cheaper, but with better build quality and easier rear doors
