Who says the Germans don"t do humour? Or irony. Here"s VW showing up to Geneva with a cutesy electric buggy and talk of the Golf GTD disappearing from the new hatchback"s ranks, and they think Top Gear has forgotten about the new Touareg V8 TDI. Yep, a 4.0-litre, twin-turbocharged, 419bhp, 664lb ft, 2,000kg monster. Brought to you by the company that has hardly got the cleanest hands when it comes to diesel engines in road cars, right? Presented with the ever-affable and enthusiastic chief of VW"s marketing department, Jurgen Stackmann, we had to ask. Why on earth is VW building a super-SUV? Especially one powered by diesel? That makes no sense, eh Jurgen?
