    Bought this car after a long test drive very comfortable quiet and smooth what really won me over against the opposition was the sheer quality when inside the car i can see why it's what cars best in class.

    Had a Yeti 2 tdi on lease, replaced it with 1.6tdi Karoq DSG Technology version which is the best car I've ever had (also on 3 year lease). Used What Car's leasing information to find the best deal. Much better value than buying one. Fantastic car to drive, absolutely love it. Have got the blue colour which meant didn't have to pay extra for the other available colours. Haven't noticed much difference in acceleration compared with the larger engine Yeti.

    We purchased the KAROQ 1.5L T/P 110TSI with DSG at the end of the 2020 financial year. BEST DECISION WE'VE EVER MADE. We're getting on a bit and decided that we needed our 'forever' car and decided to push the boat out and get all the bells and whistles. Another great decision. Took it on s shortish road trip and removed the centre back seat and fitted a 26l car cooler perfectly between rear seats. Plugged into 12v outlet and kept all out supplies at 2 degrees in 35 degree days which went up to 50 degrees when not parked in the shade. The tinting works to keep the car cool but the front windscreen still adds to the temperature when parked with no shade. We decided not to get the Sport Line but did get the 19" wheels. Most underrated car on the market. We made a check list of 8 different vehicles to meet our needs (primary requirement was electric front seats with 2 or 3 driver positioning) and this has it, PLUS, PLUS, PLUS even down to a small plastic clip on the drivers side front windscreen that holds your parking ticket instead of just throwing it onto the dash!!!! It's the small things that count. The removable seats, auto park, lane assist etc. are fabulous. We set our front sensing at MAX which maintains about 20m of clear road allowing for those drivers who insist in ducking in between you and the vehicle in front without cause high blood pressure. As I say it's a brilliant and most underrated car.

    Hope this is not too late... Have myself just ordered a Karoq 1.6 tdi SE L, Moon White. Its a great motor with plenty of power for a 1.6. dti. It is the same engine that is used throughout the VW group. There is one major downer with the Karoq though and that is the delivery times on it. I bought/ordered mine at the end of Sept and have been told that I should expect delivery at the end of March 2019. It is a victim of its own success. If you are prepared to take a different colour or options from stock then you might get one sooner, I am prepared to wait.. Its a great car so good luck if you choose one!!
