A Bunch Of Merged "My New Car / Order" Threads

[wdong]

thank you everyone for your kind response, i am not worry about the european car resale rate, but just among GTi and Jetta, but looks they are pretty same if i go for Highline model of Jetta, why no one rec. the TDi one? does diesel engine not good?

i been watch this fourm for few days, i read the spread sheet of golf's final price collection, it is helpful, gave me some hints, however, how do i know if i have a corp. discount?

my target is shifting to GTi... as my GF thinks it is cool for young ppl, Jetta not stylish enough, whatever, both for me is fine.

I am doing my homework by doing some research now, and try to get 15% off as start point, my target is
with

5 Door DSG
Metalic Paint
Sunroof
Park Assist
RNS510
Bi-Xenon light
ACC
MDI

Around 47000 drive away, not sure for this price, i may have a try.
or i may try to get a Jetta for a similar optional fitting, because i think the Jetta highline starts rrp is lower than a GTi.

Yes carbon steel is amazinggg. I got it for 46g with rear parking sensors as the only option I'm pretty sure. Got the cloth interior and it's got the DSG. Oh and it has the acc and mdi

Buy the Jetta only if you're going to use the boot. Honestly (and obviously), that's the only benefit of the sedan.

For some strange reason, I bought a Jetta thinking I'd be using the boot a lot more. Now that I've had it for almost a year, I've come to realise I should've bought a GT TDI instead

Ps. A tuned 125TDI is a good alternative to the 147TSI.

thank you for your advise~~i have not test drive the Jetta yet, i just consider that the TDi is more fuel eff., and 125kw power not too bad

No but I knew the manager through my uncle so he cut us a fairly good deal I think. He also gave us a free tank of fuel.

I am biased,but I would buy the Jetta.I think its the best value for money on the market.
However you should drive them both,and deceide for yourself which one you will be happier with.
But you will probably love them both.
According to Wheels magazine November 2009,Jetta 147 TSI has best in class resale value,retaining 70 percent of its origional valus after 3 years.

I'd say go the diesel option and get it tuned.

and unless you absolutely want it brand new, most novated lease programs will allow you to acquire a used vehicle so long as when the lease ends, the vehicle is not more than 5 years old. And they typically have a pool of cars from previous leases so you don't even have to F-around w/dealers.
