That's what I thought Dermot. If I managed to get 12% corporate discount on that then it makes the decision between this and a mazda 3 a no brainer.

Edit: I believe those prices I was quoted were for the DSG option (hence the extra 2.5K).

What is your RRP for the 118TSI (no options), Candy White?

i tt DD was fixed at 1995?

A quick question regarding the "Corporate Discount".

Is this discount something that the dealer wears... or do they have to verify all corp particulars because WGA then offers the dealer a rebate??

How does it actually work, and who actual "gives" this discount?

Amazing how quiet all the dealers staff have become??

I believe VWA passes the discount on to the dealer in full. As a result, it's no skin off the dealer's nose if you're eligible for corporate plus - better for you, and therefore better for the dealer too. The only caveat I can think of is that the dealer may have a quota for the discount, but I doubt it.

Thx for the reply Adam - I thought that was the case.

Which means that most dealers will climb into their shell after the Corp discount ceiling has been reached (on standard car - no options) - and the person buying the car thinks "gee what a good deal the dealership gave me".. when in reality they should be pushing for another 5% on top. The dealer needs to give a bit also.

So 15% discount should be a standard discount on stock car (10% corp + 5% dealer).. Any extras would need at an absolute minimum another 25% off.

Hi all,

My wife and I were in at the dealer today trying (in vain) to test drive a 90TSI Manual. The salesman mentioned that as of March 1st, VWA will be enforcing a cap to the dealer delivery charges. I believe it will be $1995 (or there abouts)

When you buy ANY mass produced make of car, your crazy if you pay more than $500 for Dealer Fees..

Hi guys

I am looking at buying a 118TSI Comfortline
DSG
Metallic Paint (Black)
Sunroof
RCD510 Dynaudio
MDI
Cloth Sport Package

On road from Solitaire Hawthorn (Adelaide) have quoted me around $43,125. I'm thinking of making an offer of around $37,500-38,000. Is that realistic/acheivable?

Also, I have been considering waiting until the end of June to purchase since it is now almost May. Are VW dealers generally good with end of financial year sales or is it not worth the wait?

Cheers
