The official I have ordered/received my new MKVI thread

[GTD Dubber]

Hehe, you do love your VWs When you order your car it seems so far away and a long time to wait, but once it's here and you have it, the time seems irrelevant. However, I see I am talking to the very converted. Again, mate, enjoy.

Just purchased my brand new MY13 (August build date) Golf Gti MkVI.

-Candy White
-5 Dr
-DSG
-MDI
-Bluetooth
-18inch Detroits

I was originally planning on purchasing a 2nd hand one, but because VW is currently having a major spring sale on I ended up getting the brand new car for $41,235 drive-away. Should be in my possession in 6 days Pics will follow.

Congrats. Looks like a good price, too. Drive it like you stole it!

Ordered a white MY13 5 door GTI with DSG, bluetooth, MDI, sunroof, detroits and reversing camera. Should get it in a couple of weeks. Paid less than $40k driveway which I was very happy with. Leaves a bit of money for a Viezu tune!

Been on the forum for a while mostly posting in the MK1 section (which I sold today)

Incidentally I picked up my new MK6 today so I'll be posting here a lot more...

That takes my list of VW's to

MK4 Golf
MK6 Golf 118 TSi (first version in manual)
2012 Polo
MK6 Golf 118 TSi DSG (which I had to give back one month old because my new company doesn't use the same leasing partner as my old company)
MK1 Golf 2 door (which I drove around in the mean time and a bit of a project, was waiting for toyota 86 but have now given up due to the waiting time)
MK6 77TSI manual (the one I picked up today)

I was impressed with the minimal perceived difference in power between the 118 and the 77. On the test drive there were 4 in the car (including my 115kg 6"6 brother in law) yet the car didnt feel sluggish at any point. It's obviously not a rocket but has more pep than I want or need from my daily

currently we have the polo (for the missus) and the 77TSi for me to go to work in...
when/if the toyota 86 availability gets to a point where I can buy one and drive it home ill trade in the polo and give the missus the golf... we own both cars outright so not too worried about interest...

depreciation and stamp duty will be a bit annoying me but I prefer this way than to pay for a car and wait 9-12 months to drive it

I mainly post about mods/issues so dont expect too many with the new car but im sure ill be involved in a lot of the conversation nonetheless

Welcome to MkVI ownership, Maris! Have you sold the MkV? Your plates going on the BlueMotion? (I'll have to look out for your new car; your MkV stands out thanks to being immaculate always!)
