Cave..

Thanks for that... much appreciated.
Hope to find out what car I am getting this week.

FWIW, I've purchased a MY13 car today, that just happened to be sitting in Auckland unsold. It's an Oryx White 5-door with bi-xenons, built 13 Dec, so I'm guessing it's not been in the country long. It's got the CTHE engine (all cars built since September have this new engine I believe). I'm surprised Volkswagen NZ would be spec buying a car with a $1500 special paint option, but it's a bonus for me, that's for sure. Paid NZ$38,000 drive away with a 3 year service plan included. List for a car of this spec is NZ $43,840, so I'm happy with the 13% discount. I pick up the car in Christchurch in 2 weeks.

Congrats on the purchase! I reckon you made the right choice, but then again I'm biased.

I'm thinkin....Oryx White = Candy White? and I'm biased as well

Oryx white is a premium white that's worth about £950 extra in the UK on a MK7 Golf
