Our Polo comfort line was bought 75km form where I live and we have a dealer 3km away. They didn't budge on price. But I'll still service it there (but no free servicing for me).

To get the free 3 years of serving they are offering, i was told that i have to use their dealer for the 3 year period.

Like Brad said though, nothing is "free" i guess it has been pretty much incorporated into the price....hence why they wouldn't budge on the $30 945!!

The problem with anything tied to a specific dealer is that they might go belly-up (eg: Bryan Byrt in QLD) before you've used the incentive. I'd rather a discount right now than a promise of something further down the road.

Just paid $30k on road for a demo in white with driver assist with 1 free service.

Yea Im happy with the price but i think nowadays the driver assist pack should be on as standard. Cant wait to pick it up its a hoot to drive. Glad i never went with the Fiesta ST.

Dealer wasn't too happy with the price and almost let me walk out at $30500 but before i got up they agreed to $30k, seems like the margins on these are not that great for the dealers. I was trying to push for $28k on road at the start lol.

Fiesta ST is still a better drivers car and its actually made in Germany unlike the Polo GTi.

They have the margins they just rather make more profit these days.

In any case you did well for a fairly newly launched car.. =) Enjoy

I ended up paying 29,900 for a new white manual no options....could probably of got them done a bit closer to 29k but was sick of arguing over a few hundred bucks. They did throw in some floor mats with it though too. Pick it up sometime this week, can't wait!!!

That's what they like to tell you. It's all part of the theatre.

I bought a new TV on the weekend. The guy reckoned he made $5 profit but it only took him 5 minutes of to come down from $2199 to $1937. He knew what his bottom line was & still make money.
