Since you say you're not mechanically inclined, my main concern is
repairs.  The TiiCo is a hybrid, unlike any vehicle VW sold from the
factory, and some mechanics are going to be reluctant to touch it.  Make
sure you have a mechanic who is willing to work on it for you if you're
not going to be doing your own wrenching.
