[@zishankohari2449]

Thank you for the wonderful review..... Stay blessed!

Zishan Kohari thank you very much!

Tish your parents should have called you Heidi ! Great review . Fine little SUV !

[@AutoSocialUK]

Funny you should say that Richard, my mum used to call me Heidi quite a lot as she would have my hair in plaits and dress me in dungarees 😂😂

[@mikes6844]

I’ve currently shortlisted this as my next car and have scheduled a test drive. I’ve reviewed these to death but your review has been enlightening and I’m grateful for the additional detail. Was worried about coming from a 2 litre GTD Golf to a 1 litre. Love it 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

[@iain8837]

Great review, target audience is me, 1 child and not wanting to spend a fortune. SUV mad, sure, but they are nice to own. The grey T-Cross looks great. Keep up the good work!

[@shaunsmith9367]

love it just bought one

[@Braydenrobbo23]

Is this a nice car?

[@mariusucenic9350]

Thank you for this review. I just bought a T-Cross 2019 automatic and your advice will help me a lot. :)

[@TheMisterB2u]

Do you still have it? and would you recommend?

[@Sasha-er9zb]

Had to subscribe :-) You've a really down to earth presenting style...the "demonstration" of the assisted breaking made me gasp like OMG (its something i would unintentially do!). Will you be doing a review of the t-roc too?

[@AutoSocialUK]

Thank you so such for subscribing, I really appreciate it! Hahaha.... that’s not the first time emergency city breaking has kicked in for me 🙈 when I first started driving the new cars at VW it actually came on quite a lot (going forward) and it taught me to be a better driver! I’m planning a T-Roc V Audi Q2 video with my dad as he wants one but I think he’ll get more for his money with the T-roc! (The T-roc is much better than the T-across in my opinion)

[@michaelcarroll9195]

Hi Tish, Thanks for the review, been looking at the T Cross. Had a Golf 2 litre diesel 140 for 7 years and it may be a bit of a culture shock. You're right about the reversing camera, or lack of one in the SE. The high driving position is appealing. My wife has an UP with heated seats and loves them like you. Good luck with you're new job and this channel. You have the personality and looks to make it a success. Don't blame you for sacking the car sales job, crap.

Another great video Tish, getting better and better. A great in-depth review of VW's baby SUV. Thanks for testing the city braking system... shhh! ;)

[@eddiethegreat989]

Nice car and nice video!!! What was the average consumption?

[@AutoSocialUK]

eddie the great thank you Eddie, getting 41mpg on average but then I was pushing a little harder than possibly you normally would. (Oh the pleasure of paying for fuel fixed rate per mile) 🙊

[@rachelryan5805]

The 1st time I saw one up close I was informed that an 80yr old lady had just bought the last t-cross style in energetic orange. Here I now sit waiting for my order of a t-cross style in energetic orange. 🇦🇺

[@AutoSocialUK]

What an awesome 80 year old! 😁

[@cheekypepsi8772]

I bought this after you reviewed it

[@AutoSocialUK]

Levi Wright ROBLOX that’s fantastic news Levi. What colour and spec did you go for?

[@louisscott6220]

Amazing review Tish, well done x

[@spillzgaming1646]

Just bought the R line in South Africa and am loving it.

[@AutoSocialUK]

The R-Line looks truly great! What colour did you go for??

[@DaveDVideoMaker]

The T-Cross is sold in Mexico, but not for sale in the US/Canada.

[@joe80ss]

Skoda Kamiq SEL or VW t-cross SEL?

[@TheMisterB2u]

Kamiq for more room,T-Cross for more SUV driving height position.

[@ramjay7211]

Could you please do on toyota corolla 2019 incon tech base model 🙏🙏🙏🙏

[@iain8837]

7:48, 94bhp and 113bhp, PS is not bhp. Nit picking...yes, good review though 👍👍

[@AutoSocialUK]

Iain a lot of people do not understand PS so it is just simpler to say BHP, I would like these reviews to be for people that do not know a huge amount about cars. I worked for VW for 18 months so am quite familiar with PS. Thank you, glad you liked it.

[@tlmoller]

Very nice review, professional and usefull. The audi could do with som improvement on the wind noise side though. But all in all a great review. Keep it up!

[@AutoSocialUK]

Thank you very much! This was a little while ago now, so audio has improved!

[@stratocaster539]

just bought one, the colors are restricted to a small palette, but it's a really good drive.

[@AutoSocialUK]

What colour did you go for?

[@rogerjames7315]

Lovely hair dearest

[@zrider1000]

Nice car, but a very beautiful face!

[@The-Salty-Bager]

I do think the interior plastics are a bit cheap looking and not up to a German car

[@AutoSocialUK]

I do agree. VW have given the T-Roc and T-Cross plastically interior and it is most people’s gripe with the car. I think they’d have sold shed loads if it was high quality!

[@carllockpick6179]

Car, what car.

[@virtuososiu]

good video, but you need to stabilise the camera, its too shakey

[@jamesure2445]

Hi Tish, this is my first time watching one of your car reviews, and i must say that i was very impressed with your presentation overall. My question to you, do you think this car would be suitable for my good lady and myself. My reason for asking is that were pensioners with severe back pain, and can't enter or exit an ordinary low set vehicle. At the moment ive got a Moka 1.4.turbo elite, and will be changing it at the end of 2019. So i would be gratefull to you, if you could advise me, as to what you think would be a suitable car to change via my Motability scheme lease contract. Thank you in advance.Ps.You put me in mind of my Grandaughters and there lovely girls like yourself Tish. Long may you continue with the good work and presentation of pre car reviews.👍🇬🇧💞

[@AutoSocialUK]

Hey James, Thank you so much for taking the time to watch my video and leave such a lovely comment! I certainly think this car would be suitable; similar as the Moka it has been designed with people with mobility issues in mind and is much easier to get in and out of that usual hatchbacks. What part of the world do you live in James? Thank you again, Tish :) :)

[@jamesure2445]

Hi Tish thank you very much for your answer to my question in regards to the suitability of the Vaux.Wagon T Cross.car.Thank you for your advice. You were asking me what part of the country i come from.My country and county is Stirlingshire in Scotland. Keep up the good work in your reviews Tish.All the best to you and your future. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿👍

Hello my mum is looking at one of these do you know what spec has the auto fold mirrors :)

[@AutoSocialUK]

Let me see if I can find out for you. I know the T-cross has a similar specification the Polo and the T-Roc to the Golf. It’s quite rare for Polo’s to have folding mirrors.

[@Braydenrobbo23]

@@AutoSocialUK ye we currently own a polo beats 2019 but we need a bigger sub we do own other cars but we need one for my mum also thanks:)

[@AutoSocialUK]

Hi Brayden, as I suspected here in the UK they are all an optional extra on the T-Cross. Where in the UK are you based? I have a trustworthy connection in Stafford with some in stock with folding mirrors.

[@AutoSocialUK]

@@Braydenrobbo23 ok well no pressure but Liam at Stafford is great if you had any more questions or wanted him to run through which he has in stock with power mirrors: [e-mail]

[@GroundhogDK]

Lovely and charming! Very nice and comprehensive review. The new T-Cross is indeed an improvement on the Polo, if one is into SUV's. If I should critique something, it would be the camera and sound work. Maybe you just need better equipment for professional sound and picture quality. A really cheap but beneficial upgrade would a directional external microfone suitable for outdoor use. They can be fitted with a "dead cat" windscreen noise reduction. I believe the "Røde VideoMic Me-L" or "Røde VideoMic Me" come with a dead cat attachment. I can also recommend getting a gimbal like the "DJI Osmo Mobile 2" for steadier camera work. Also, you are very professionaI and precise in this video, but I must admit I prefer a more casual laid back review style, like you did on your mini adventure video with Loren. That was fun as well as informative. Slow it down a bit and don't worry if you don't get every technical tidbit in the video. Keep up the good work! ❤️

[@AutoSocialUK]

Jacob Frostholm thank you Jacob! Always appreciate any feedback that will help me improve! The T-cross is a good little car but for spec included I would pay a little more for the T-Roc! I will work on getting better sound quality as much as I can BUT I am pretty broke atm so I have to work with what I’ve got. Do have a mini dead cat though so I’ll try that and see if it improves! Going to try and have a mix of fun and informative don’t you worry 😊😊

[@fredhicks7483]

@@AutoSocialUK Currently looking at the T-cross and T-roc. I'd probably go with the T-roc.....but I'm waiting to see if they (VW, Skoda, Seat) can fix the issues with the 1.5 engine.
