Touareg na. AFAIK, it shares underpinnings with the Cayenne.

And the women really dig the Mini.

Not only Cayenne, but also the Audi Q7.

The facelifted 8-speed paddle shifter equipped CRDi Grand Cherokee.

Yes because Porsche, Audi, and Volkswagen are all under the VAG (Volkswagen Group - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia)

This includes other automobile brands too.

Thanks for all the input guys. Since this would involve a significant amount, I would not want any mistakes made and choose carefully. So I guess I would check out all the recommendations, do the research with regards to availability of parts in case something happens (of course we dont want the car be stuck in the CASA just waiting for parts to arrive), and make the necessary bookings for a test drive.

^ Check also the second hand offerings while you're at the shops (MB, BMW and Audi have preowned programs), you'll never know if you might find a good buy (slightly use, fairly new... and depreciated!!!).

You might also want to check out their leasing programs as I heard they were pretty competitive din if you like your cars updated. It's also a mean to skirt around BIR's radar :naughty2: Henares will be vicious.. there's the whole doctors-pay-less-taxes-versus-teachers debacle after all.

If you want to keep your car after the lease expires I recommend going for BPI leasing. They hide your name because it is just a lease and at the end they will sell you your car for one peso. The rates are similar to other financing schemes.
Flexi-lease from BMW and the like were made for high paid executives who want to skirt the P2.4 million company car limit
