I have the dipping mirror but on all my previous cars didn't and like you managed fine by angleing the mirror down enough to see the kerb but still give a rearward view. Only time I found it too low was on infrequent motorway journeys when I angled it up a bit more. I also find that the mirror dips ...

Width is 1863, so actually the widest. Not much between them really. I was coming from a Yeti and my wife from a Mini and though I liked the Tiguan my wife didn't want anything too big.

I was catching a van that was turning left and as the back end came out I went onto the hatching slightly. No drama or excess speed just normal driving for a human! And no it wasn't the lane warning just ...

It's not good reading threads like this!

A friend never buys new cars. He's frightened to death of having to replace his elderly Golf when the time comes with a car that is a few years old.
