I think your the first tornado red TCR I've ever seen, it's very refreshing to see!
Thanks Will, your PP is looking very nice
My journey to getting the TCR over the last 8 months has been a bit odd. I was very much in SUV territory (i had a knee replacement 3 years ago so getting in and out of higher vehicles was easier) last August when i p/x'd my Kia Sportage in for a 67 plate Tiguan R-Line, it was almost perfect for me, except that it just felt a bit too sensible. I also felt with the 'R-Line' i was getting an exclusive range, i soon realised that VW slapped the 'R-Line' badge on a lot of models! This got me thinking about the Tiguan R, however i couldn't justify the £46k-£50k price tag, especially when compared to the Golf R. This in turn got me thinking about the PP and whilst looking into the PP i discovered the TCR. I was fortunate that the dealership had two, my red one and a black one, what swung it was the extra body kit and decals stood out more. It's been a long long time since a car has put a smile on my face, the TCR has done that and more, i actually want to go out for a drive even if i don't need to go anywhere.......which is great with fuel prices going through the roof
The added bonus as well is that i have had no issues getting in and out with my knee, the Golf is a miracle worker!
I went the Xpel Self-Healing PPF route on my TR, expensive yes, do I regret it? Absolutely not if anything I wish I ppf'd more! It's worth looking into if you're thinking of keeping the car long term and get the stone chips touched in with a pen before it's wrapped.
Something Protection Film? I saw it mentioned somewhere when i was looking for detailers near me but didn't look into it, i plan to keep the TCR for a long time, dare i say it i might even be the last owner of it, so PPF might be something worth looking into.
