The VOLKSWAGEN TOUAREG (2003-07) 5DR SUV 2.5 TDI DPF ALTITUDE is a large, five-door diesel SUV for buyers seeking a more substantial alternative to an estate or family hatchback. In the UK used market it competes with premium-feeling family 4x4s, offering a raised driving position, space and a confident presence. mycarcheck.com has six checks across two distinct VINs, a small sample, so these figures are indicative only. The average private-sale valuation was £2,600, with 139,000 miles recorded and annual mileage averaging 3,000. Checks showed just over eight previous keepers on average, making an individual vehicle-history check especially worthwhile before buying. With its diesel power, space and all-weather confidence, the Touareg suits families and long-distance drivers, though its size can challenge city parking. Altitude offers a well-equipped feel. Compared with rivals such as the BMW X5 and Land Rover Discovery, this Volkswagen blends a cabin with a rugged, understated character.
