The VOLKSWAGEN TOURAN (2007-10) 5DR MPV 2.0 TDI 140 SPORT DSG AUTO 7-SEAT is a compact family people carrier, roomier and more flexible than a hatchback but easier to manage than a large MPV. It remains a practical mainstream choice in the UK used market. Mycarcheck.com logged 461 checks across 270 distinct VINs, giving a substantial sample. Its seven seats, flexible cabin and raised view suit growing families, school runs and holidays. The 140-horsepower diesel paired with an automatic gearbox is particularly appealing for relaxed longer trips, and Sport trim brings a smarter, more generously equipped feel. Like the Ford Grand C-MAX and Vauxhall Zafira, it prioritises useful space over sporty handling. Check history carefully: look-ups show mileage averaging 130,000 and 3.4 previous keepers.
