Sometimes it’s the little things that impress with a new car, sometimes the bigger ones. If a manufacturer gets both right, you can be sure of two things: firstly, it must be a ‘facelift’ with all the original niggles ironed out and secondly, they have got a success story on their hands
Volkswagen’s new Touareg - named apparently after nomadic people of Northern Africa - is such a car, pleasingly well designed on the macro level (looks, space, general driveability) as well as the micro (beautiful attention to detail, nicely tactile controls).
