Looking for a new Polo GTI..

[dknlm]

Hi All,

Been camping in the forum for a while now and finally decide to get a Polo GTI.
I Was tossing up between the Polo GTI and Peugeot 207 GT.
I am looking at a White 2007 Polo GTI with full leather and glass roof as options.
What price range would I be looking at with that specs?
BTW I'm from Melbourne and do you know any good VW dealers around Melbourne?

Sorry for my English, as an oversea student I'm still working on my grammar.

Thanks in advance,

Welcome! Congrats on the excellent choice you have made. I'm sure everybody here will tell you, that you won't regret it!

The Polo GTI is a fun car to drive. Got lots of grunt, looks good, and has great aftermarket support if you're planning to modify it.

Prices start from $26,990 + ORC for a GTI with no extras. You can add leather ($2490) to that and a sunroof if you want. I've heard a few stories of people pulling salesmans arms and getting $27-28K drive away.

There is a waiting list depending on the colours. White and red seem to be the most popular so I dunno depending on what stock levels are like you could get lucky perhaps???? Otherwise waiting lists could be up to 3 months in some cases.

Sorry can't help you out with your question reqarding Melbourne dealerships because I'm from Sydney. But I'm sure one of the friendly Melb dubbers here will be able to provide some useful info.

Good luck with it!

Burwin VW is where I got mine from. Good service. Avoid barloworld though, they're not very nice people

Hey mate,

Congrats on your choice! I got the exact same spec car as the one you wanted. White/Roof/Leather, cost me $32,000 on the road. Had to wait 5 months though.

You can get a stock polo gti from Werribee VW for $28900 drive away. They aren't too bad to deal with in my experience.

Don't know whether it's the same elsewhere, but the Canberra dealer is offering the choice of (a) additional 2yrs warranty or (b) $1500 in accessories or (c) free servicing to 45,000k on Polos delivered through till end Sept. Could be worth keeping in mind for negotiations

Welcome to VWwA dknlm

If you want a 2007MY I think you can only get whats in stock ???? and you are more liable to get 2007MY discounted than MY08.

MY08 you can order what ever spec you want

Good Luck
