Golf Mk6 - Prices and Dealer Negotiations

[Ozram]

Finally bit the bullet and decided to trade up and take advantage of the free on-roads promotion. The 118 has been fabulous, but with warranty due to expire in August I wanted to be covered again.

Signed today for bog standard MY12.5 Carbon Steel 5 Door DSG with 18" Detroits. $43,690 drive away. It is currently on the wharf so delivery in the next few weeks.

Plan to add Lakin plate holders, RNS510, Milltek exhaust, tune, tint & opti-coat. Oh, and of course I have to swap my rear LED's don't I?

So I am guessing it is a GTI

Nice work Ozram, could be on the same boat my Gti is on (in at Port Kembla today). Any ideas on the tune? Full turbo back or just cat back? Love the tails! Dealer is fitting my gratis

Dealer said mine had already landed & assured me we had secured it. I've been following Lucas's thread here and without getting into a flame war I quite like what he says the tune does. I definitely won't be getting one particular tune as I'm appalled by the bitchiness and downright rudeness shown by the so called distributor on this site ( won't name names. ) Will put a few km's on it first. Exhaust will probably be a cat back at this stage.

Lucky you that the dealer is doing the install for you. Check out the VCDS tweaks section and get him to code for the needle sweep & other stuff. Good luck with your car. Enjoy!

Agreed, pretty safe to follow Lucas' tune lead

Congratulations Ozram. Nice trade up coming and it's not a loooong wait, like some of us had. And, Yes, you need to do something about the tail end.
