New Volkswagen Pricing!

[Acko1991]

Obviously their has been a reduction in brand new manufacturers pricings because of the Australian dollar being so strong now but it is a bit of a downer that now the second hand market will reduce to....So technically we have all lost money!

Not crap, it's great. Yes the second-hand value drops, but the second-hand value will not be reduced as much as the new price reduction (it's a % thing not a fixed $ thing). So when you eventually trade-in, the price difference for the new car will be less. And I can remember when simple abs and a/c were (expensive) optional extras.

It's inevitable over the life of the car that mid-model facelifts etc. will be better specced than the first release. I wouldn't lose too much sleep over it.

Agreed myself and Molotov via our past posts have enjoyed our rides so have others who bought them pre-facelift.

Plus its was bound to happen sometime
