 I have driven 30,000 miles in the deserts of Las Vegas and get 22 -23 MPG aroung town and 26 - 28 on the highway.  I have had the services done and am sitting at the dealer having the 30 mile service performed as I write this.  Th rear brakes need to be changed at $270 and the front are still 80%.  All the tires are still good.  30,000 miles and the front brakes are at 80%, this is awesome.  Look up brakes on the Toureg and you will see every 15k to 20k miles at 4 times the cost of the Tiguan.  This SUV has been flawless, you cannot go wrong.  I test drove the CRV and love the looks, however, the interior seemed cheap and the ride was not as quite.  I cannot praise the vehicle enough.
