Performance diesels are like that. Never feel fast but always surprise you when you look at the speedo and are shocked to see how fast you are going. They mask speed really well. But in this case, a car that heavy will never be genuinely fast.
Mileage is nothing as long as you look after the car👍🏼 I had a Ford galaxy with 219k on the clock went from london to Amsterdam and back with no problems.
The drive train will be broken. I can guarantee it. Even if it was broken before and they fixed it, it will break again. I had one of these and it was the worst car I ever owned: it looked like it was built to fall apart after about 13 years. The main VW dealer certainly knew how bad it was because they didn't want to touch it (and that is with their outrageous pricing).
My 2005 Honda Accord sport 2.0 petrol has 155k on the clock and still drives like a dream. And genuinely one of the best manual gearboxes I’ve experienced
Iv a 2.5 ltr it is brilliant on fuel and is fun to drive. V10 is useless in todays market in the uk. Especially with diesel princes what’s the actually point of having one bad on fuel crazy fuel prices hah
Always had a soft spot for the V10 diesel touareg you dont normally see big diesels like that fitted in a car from factory. Just see you put it up on auto trader so I got to see the mileage before you announced, its not that high if its been maintained that diesel lump will do a million miles like a scania truck
‘You can fill the boot up with bodies or whatever’ - hahahahaha Calv you crack up mate, so true though that wagon is pure gangster, something they’d have in Top Boy, LOL.
The R50 holds the world record for pulling a dead weight top gear towed a jumbo jet and to make sure the car gripped the runway VW put 4.5 tons of ballast in it
You can get a w12 in a toureg and a heads up it’s not a Bentley engine w engines where all designed and built by vw from the ground up like the vr engines witch the vr6 was actually originally designed to be a diesel hence why they will make 700 brake easily on stock internals
I've got a discovery 3 2009 hse with 200 tho on the clock now still going strong feel like I am playing Russian roulette every time I drive it yet I wouldn't be without it
a 2003 should be this VW Touareg V10 TDI 0-60 and acceleration in miles per hour ; 0-10 mph, 1.1 s ; 0-20 mph, 2.1 s ; 0-30 mph, 3.0 s ; 0-40 mph, 4.1 s ; 0-50 mph, 5.5 s. 0-60 mph: 7.3 seconds Quarter mile: 16.5 s @ 94 mph 0-100 kph: 7.8 seconds Top speed: 231 kph / 144 mph
Calvin baffled like a MQB diesel owner with a remap when one of the hot hatches still destroys it and they can’t get over that they have more torque 😏😆
Calvin on the toe rag did you notice the peal on the buttons, I have an Audi A4 where the buttons were away. Wonder if there is a company you can order sticky replacements to upgrade or freshen Up interiors
I've seen this one on eBay it's benn there since summer 🤣. Anyway, i have a Touareg 3.0d 2007 facelift with 210k on clock very well maintained. I have a TT towbar professionaly fitted pulls like a train my boat and caravan i love this car 4x4 comfort, power, stability, due to being very heavy you don't feel very often the wind (storm), no rust because of the double paint.. I have Goodrich 255/55/18 mud tyres absolutely tank. Never let me down but tbh I've spent alot of money because every part is expensive. However once you replace what needs replacing believe me you won't have any issues anytime soon. Fixed all suspension and manifold clap because the precious owner didn't care that much now runs smoothly I'll plan to buy a V10 as well they are very cheap on eBay
I think someone sprayed all the buttons black in that Toureg, they might not be "worn" at all, just the paint's peeling? Be a pain cleaning it off, but it'll freshen it right up after cleaning it off I imagine.
That would look awesome Infront of my twin axle caravan. Proper pulling machine. Sounds like it's had it's dpf gutted/removed because you can hear the turbo through the exhaust. If it has then it would have been mapped too and that's why you'll be seeing some soot/smoke from the exhaust.
Thought it would be quicker than that? My c7 bitdi allroad has the same torque but it isn't as heavy and has a better gearbox. You should get a c7 a6 bitdi stage 1 Calv 😉😁

Hi Calv, never really been a fan of the "VW Toerag" but that seems to have stood up quite well considering its almost 20 years old.
‘It’s fast but it’s not actually fast.’
Love it Calvin. Brilliant review. 🤣

It's the touque that makes it feel fast
Not fast no.But if you hook up a 3.5 ton boat you won't know it is there....
My dad's one goes fasttttt
@@johnmitchell2269 no its the other way around
Mileage is nothing as long as you look after the car👍🏼 I had a Ford galaxy with 219k on the clock went from london to Amsterdam and back with no problems.
A mate of mine is using a 2012 Mercedes sprinter this week with 420,000 miles and hardly any rust,!!
I got into a 2004 e320cdi taxi in Portugal .. it had 950,000KM’s on the clock

Absolutely love the variety of different cars on this channel man 🤝👏
20 years old, that does make me feel old! I do like it when you grimace :)
Love the touareg - had a remapped 3.0 v6 altitude and it was a brilliant comfy 4x4. Pulled pretty well with 265bhp
my dad had one, 2012 3.0 altitude, got stolen tho 😔
Better one to own than the v10 though.
@@andy00grant only problme is they’re super expensive to run😭 like £650 road tax
My 2005 Honda Accord sport 2.0 petrol has 155k on the clock and still drives like a dream. And genuinely one of the best manual gearboxes I’ve experienced
Darkside Developments have one of these and it's rapid 👌🏼
We have 3 Touaregs now, V6,V8 and V10 TDi's, all our mates are buying them too! Haha
@@ryanp6138 are you the real Ryan 🤣
@@ryanp6138 awesome
I'm a big fan of the Touareg and have never seen a V10 video done. Great work. But I HATE it when people put that film on their windscreens!
Its not a film, its a UV solar glass, fitted from factory.
That car definitely has a marker on it.
This made me chuckle
Minute silence for those who thought this would give good mpg because it's a diesel lol
it gets better than its gas v8 counterpart. and it has two spinny bois
Iv a 2.5 ltr it is brilliant on fuel and is fun to drive. V10 is useless in todays market in the uk. Especially with diesel princes what’s the actually point of having one bad on fuel crazy fuel prices hah
@@antohooper6996v6 is the way to go.👍
This is the TG that pulled the plane. Torque monster makes feel fast interesting only like a TT 225 quick.
I remember darkside development doing a video on one of these in the snow and he was pulling a hgv in it

That is Hunters farm shop in Milton Keynes....Where are you based ?
Had one of these after watching Darksides vids, cracking cars when they work.
Will do 28mpg cruising it aswell 😎
@ 60mph
@@Robert-cu9bm
Just without flooring it or being silly, drove mine for a full day carefully and that’s what i got
I miss the good old days of VW/Audi with V12 Diesel SUV's and V10 Sedans
A 1.9 alh is only just run in at that mileage lol
Why don't you use c vertical for your History check? Your current checking service isn't the best!!!
There's a guy on TH-cam from South Yorkshire that has towed trucks 🚚 up hills with one of these it's astonishing how strong it is
I would say with the 2 x big k&n air filters and the way it’s sounds it’s probably had the cats removed and a re-Map🤞
I was looking at cars with my dad and we saw this. we skipped straight away. It probably has something wrong with it I could imagine.
The previous owner must have had a smooth arse but sandpaper fingers.
🤣
It is quite a reasonably price car at around £5k considering there is a VW Touareg R50 on eBay now for £14k with 185k miles lol
I bought mine just before the pandemic that made the prices skyrocket.
And got mine with 94k in very good condition, £3600...
Judging by the sound of it, it defos has a dpf delete, maybe straight through exhaust and probably a tune with that in mind! Get it to VRS!
There was a video of one of these towing a 747 on a runway a long time ago. 👌🏻😂
High mileage ain’t too bad as long as it’s been serviced properly and not ragged to death
Gutted you couldn’t get a video of the fabia, fantastic wee cars 🔥🔥
This car main problems are - starter motor (fails and have to take all engine out), cardan shaft front (can be repaired), air leaks and turbos
I came down and brought that fabia for my mate it's had a few changes lol
You need to get your hands on a 6.0 V12 Q7. Be interesting to compare to toerag
The R50 holds the world record for pulling a dead weight top gear towed a jumbo jet and to make sure the car gripped the runway VW put 4.5 tons of ballast in it
She weighs a good 2 ton that's a bit to get them going but one hell of a car
You can get a w12 in a toureg and a heads up it’s not a Bentley engine w engines where all designed and built by vw from the ground up like the vr engines witch the vr6 was actually originally designed to be a diesel hence why they will make 700 brake easily on stock internals
Nice motor that be worth hanging on to. Have a bit of fun with it tidy it up and see what power gains you can get out of it
Calvin sell it to Darkside Developments in Barnsley......
I’d mod that Calv Darksides is an absolute monster mate👌👌🏴
I've got a discovery 3 2009 hse with 200 tho on the clock now still going strong feel like I am playing Russian roulette every time I drive it yet I wouldn't be without it
Looks so so beautiful than current model toureg
Keep it for a while calv for content get it over to will at vrs and see if it's been remapped and see what can be done with it
Bro i like u and ur videos . Video quality looks great ur music is cool . Keep it up 🖤
a 2003 should be this VW Touareg V10 TDI 0-60 and acceleration in miles per hour ; 0-10 mph, 1.1 s ; 0-20 mph, 2.1 s ; 0-30 mph, 3.0 s ; 0-40 mph, 4.1 s ; 0-50 mph, 5.5 s.
0-60 mph: 7.3 seconds
Quarter mile: 16.5 s @ 94 mph
0-100 kph: 7.8 seconds
Top speed: 231 kph / 144 mph
Calvin , please take this to will at VRS and get it mapped be a crazy power!
I believe I’m right in saying that’s the same car as the big Porsche 4x4. Interesting vlog as always. Best wishes.
Love the channel mate 👍
thats a beast v10 touareg good car nice video pall !!!
🦾Volkswagen build quality
Love the videos mate👍🏻
Great value for money my dad used to have one of these
Love watching your content bro cracking 👍🏼👍🏼

Up interiors
would be interesting to see how much power VRS can get out of it with a remap would make a great video too
You can get at least 50hp extra as the r50 comes from factory that much higher.
I wouldn't like to be working on that engine I'd say it's very hard to work on
‘The fuel light is on’
The fuel light is always on in that thing🤣
Calvin , Clarkson also towed a 500 Tonne jumbo jet with that model car , if my memory serves me right?
🤔🤔🤔

Leathers look mint for the age/use 👍
fills it up, 4mpg, pulls out of a set of lights, half a tank . and EVs are bad. lol
This thing was demonstrated to pull an aircraft a long time ago. It's Toareg. The name is the name. Same as Mitsubishi. Nice car.
The shift manager at work has 2014 V6 3.0 TDI. Looks badass
My old v10 Touareg is now on 184k….. awesome cars! How much you want for it
Hows it goin with that mileage? My transporter has 180k still fine.
I think someone sprayed all the buttons black in that Toureg, they might not be "worn" at all, just the paint's peeling? Be a pain cleaning it off, but it'll freshen it right up after cleaning it off I imagine.
You’re good content man good speaking on camera
loved the vid quick flip on that Skoda.. lol
Calv, pablo just called, he wants his vw runner car back.
🤣
Defo should tidy it up and get it down at VRS for a remap
Did the last owner have sandpaper for fingers? How do the interior switches get that bad?
Those rims are not the atheo wheels. Atheos are 5 wide spokes.
I love how Calvin messes up his words he cracks me up 🤣🤣🤣
Kind of a trademark at this point 🤣
Proper shed , cool car when new 👍🏻
"Bodies or whatever" cracked me up. 🤣
On an old Top Gear it the same car pulled a Jumbo jet
now thats a good car vrs ive had 4 of these and can be mod but ive upgraded to a seat leon tfsi thats running 280 bhp
Just looked on binca.. a review of the escort (xr3i?!) please 🙏🏼 😈
That would look awesome Infront of my twin axle caravan. Proper pulling machine. Sounds like it's had it's dpf gutted/removed because you can hear the turbo through the exhaust. If it has then it would have been mapped too and that's why you'll be seeing some soot/smoke from the exhaust.
aye thats great mate
Before the DPF rules came in... Mines a 05 and has no DPF.
Thinking to come soon to your car place to buy car and see you in life 😀
I may be wrong but I remember watching Top Gear towing a Boeing plane with one of these.
The V10 TDI is incredibly expensive to repair, and the engine likes to eat itself up...
But they seem quite reliable.
@@Robert-cu9bm Actually they are not. But they are cool B-)
Darkside Developments has some good videos on these and some good aftermarket parts!
I honestly nearly come to buy this Yano off of you guys
That vrs look nice hope you sold that top money
Thought it would be quicker than that? My c7 bitdi allroad has the same torque but it isn't as heavy and has a better gearbox. You should get a c7 a6 bitdi stage 1 Calv 😉😁
Love it. Who needs carwow 😎❤️
Thats for sure its remapped thats smoke is to much for stock i think... great vid calv
What app do you use for HPI??
2 months later still waiting for the v10 m6 review if you still have it
My dad has the 3.0 v6 version it's bullet proof
2nd best VW engine after the 1.9 for reliability
the wear on the switches looks more then 160000 more like 300000 unless the driver was touching it every second and nobody does that
Love it a bit of HBI, and love a few extras 😂
sounds decatted might be mapped
Get a stage 3 tune on that V10. You have to
It weighs 2.7 tonne. Put any map on it and it still won't be fast.
Where can I find the original new price of a use car ?
Nice motors these but pointless because mpg
What’s the HPI app that he’s using?
Like what you did with the traffic cone 👀 to be fair I'd stick it in the boot and use it every time I parked up if that was my m5 😉😂
