Friendly, Honest, Easy -- Amazing Tiguan Lease :) I give my Boston Volkswagen 2016 Tiguan leasing experience 5 stars. I had an amazing experience. I was met only with friendliness, honesty, and a tire I give my Boston Volkswagen 2016 Tiguan leasing experience 5 stars. I had an amazing experience. I was met only with friendliness, honesty, and a tireless effort to get me the car of my dreams :) I have very little experience with dealerships and was seeking a Volkswagen after a terrible and sketchy experience looking for RAV4s at Copeland Toyota -- whose dealers were not only pushy, dishonest, and trying to rip me off, they also would not give me any specific numbers at all unless I promised them that I would sign for a car that day! I then tried Paul Clark Volkswagen in Brockton -- avoid! They could not even tell me which Tiguan trims came with LEDs or GPS, they offered to lease me a 2013 (?), and the manager openly yelled at his employee right in front of my face. It was extremely uncomfortable. However, after test driving a Tiguan, I knew I had to have one. My friend and I arrived at the clean and modern Boston Volkswagen late on a weekday night determined to lock down a Tiguan (I had already paid for 2 weeks of a rental car by this point) and was greeted by a friendly Bill Burns. He asked me about my budget and openly and honestly explained the price components of the leasing process, including how monthly payments are calculated and what would due at signing, depending on the down payment I elected to put down. He even included tax in the monthly payment price quotes to give me a better idea of what I would actually be paying -- the other dealerships did not do this and had I proceeded with them I could have easily been tricked into something I could not afford. When it came the time to nail down a price, Bill took the time to describe in detail the differences between each trim level and helped me weigh the trim level options according to my priorities and budget. Erick Martinez and Bill were very patient with us as we talked through the pricing. By the time we had discussed everything and came to an agreement, it was more than an hour past the time the dealership was supposed to close -- Bill and Erick were extremely friendly about this and at no point did I feel rushed through the process. I very much appreciated this :) After my credit was run the next morning (as there was no way to run the paperwork that day since I signed it an hour past closing!), it turned out I needed a cosigner. I spoke over the phone with Bill and Al Whelan about this, who were both very nice and encouraging about the situation and didn't make me feel guilty for having below-average credit, or hopeless that I wouldn't be able to get my dream car. After I arranged for a cosigner, I let Al and Bill know that my cosigner is a very busy man and would have a tough time getting to Watertown to sign the documents. I also let them know that by this point I had exceeded the maximum number of extensions on my rental car contract and did not have a means of getting to Watertown myself. This still did not stop them! An arrangement was made for Bill and his colleague to drive my Tiguan (with dealer plates) to my cosigner's workplace and meet us there so that we could sign the final documents, meanwhile Bill's colleague affixed my plates. After the documents were signed, Bill gave me a tour of my dream car which was now mine!! :) I am extremely appreciative of my whole experience at Boston Volkswagen and for the gracious employees I worked with. They got me a great deal on a cute, fun-to-drive, safe car! I had such a great experience that I felt they deserved this length and extent of a review. I would recommend this dealership to anyone (even if you are an hour south of it like I am) :) More
2012 Tiguan Purchase Even before I purchased this car from Boston VW, I brought my other VW's here for service because they have always been thorough, quick and fair and I Even before I purchased this car from Boston VW, I brought my other VW's here for service because they have always been thorough, quick and fair and I never felt like I was paying for work that I didn't need. Al L., who runs the service department, is fantastic. I recently pruchased a 2012 Tiguan and Antonio, Erick and Al W. made the buying process painless and worked with me on getting exactly what I wanted for the right price. I would highly recommend this dealership. More

Made getting a new car easy! Mike Petersante and Erick Martinez were incredibly helpful, friendly, and attentive. They made leasing a car easy ... even pleasant. I went to 4 dea Mike Petersante and Erick Martinez were incredibly helpful, friendly, and attentive. They made leasing a car easy ... even pleasant. I went to 4 dealers before VW and found the best deal, as well as the best service at Boston VW. There was no wait time while they "ran numbers", they served me coffee, and made sure I knew everything about my car's features before I left. Mike even picked me up from the rental car office. More

I appreciated Mike's dedication to work with me, allowing me to test drive mult Mike Petersante gave me excellent service and unparalleled attention. I appreciated Mike's dedication to work with me, allowing me to test drive multiple vehicles, and working with me closely to complete our transaction. Of particular interest and admiration, I appreciated Mike's willingness to expedite the purchase process to accommodate other plans I had made. To do this, Mike had everything prepared to complete my purchase before my arrival; that preparation and dedication allowed me to make it to my previous engagement. I appreciated his dedication and professionalism during this purchase, and, if given the opportunity, would absolutely return to Volkswagen in Watertown, MA. More
Best Service and Dealer in my Lifetime! I've been taking my 1998 VW New Beetle in for service and developed our first relationship with Mike DaCruz. It is because of him that when it was ti I've been taking my 1998 VW New Beetle in for service and developed our first relationship with Mike DaCruz. It is because of him that when it was time to retire the Beetle, we wanted to stay with VW Boston to find the replacement. Jeff, Brian and Erick are out of this world. They don't just want to make a deal, they want it to be YOUR deal. They made it work FOR US. Because of that, the next day we decided we wanted to trade in our Mazda for a Tiguan, to make our household a VW driving family. We thought it was a long shot since we owed more on it than what it was worth. But, once again, they made it work for us. We are so happy we found a dealer that is trustworthy. What sets them apart is that they care about their customers. They are all so friendly and personable. I feel like I've known these guys for years. I won't go anywhere else as long as I am in the Boston area. I've never trusted the opinions, or built up a relationship with any service or dealer as I have with these guys. Also, stop in and say hi to Al. He's not only knowledgeable with the cars, he's fun to talk with about history! More

Be Like Mike Mike DaCruz over at Boston VW is an excellent person to work with. He and his co-worker Armando are first class all the way. Both are sympathetic a Mike DaCruz over at Boston VW is an excellent person to work with. He and his co-worker Armando are first class all the way. Both are sympathetic and unfailingly patient. Can't say enough good things about these guys. Going through the dealership for repairs is expensive, but to me having the expertise, and many times the parts on site, to do the job right the first time is worth the trade off. It helps that I can walk home after dropping the car off for service, but you can't go wrong dealing with these two guys. They are a credit to their profession and Volkswagen. More
