Tiguan powered by RBS
« on: August 20, 2021, 08:31:32 pm »
Hi everyone :wink:
After 2020 it’s time to go back into V-Dubs :happy2:
I’ve been looking for a Tiguan to have in Croatia…. Especially for mum…
She wanted a bigger car after her SLK…
So I’ve found one in April 2020…

Great looking car! Love the fact that you had a BBK installed :)!
One question: it seems to have the front and rear RLine bumpers but the side skirts seen to be non-RLine. Any reason why it is this way?

Hi rex,
Thanks  :happy2:
I’ve bought the Tiguan like that…
It was a US car which was brought in Germany with the owner (US military)…
He converted the Tiguan from US spec to European spec: lights, seatbelts, windows etc etc…
It’s all documented, so I imported it like that into Belgium. With corona last year I could not bring it to Croatia… :sad1: it was a surprise for my mum. :wink: She could not come get us from the airport with her SLK… I always had to rent a car over here… so I had it for a year in Belgium and played with it :happy2:
Now if everything goes to plan… next week Croatia should have a new citizen  :wink:
