Volkswagen Polo Model Year (MY) 2011.5 Changes

[William_Foster]

I have been told that if I want to delay my order to get the updated Climate Control unit I need to cancel my order and reorder. They are confirming that, but it looks like I will be stuck with black on blue; which is a little annoying given that the new unit would have matched nicely with the upgraded audio package.

And what does that mean to the price you have already negotiated?

How do you mean? There is no change at the moment given that nothing has changed; I wasn't expecting that delaying the production of my order would have an affect on the price given that it is not modifying the standard features of the comfort pack. Do Volkswagen usually charge for this type of thing?

they might conjure up some cancellation fee even though you're re ordering

I guess it depends on when your ordered car was being made. Changes can usually be made up until manufacturing is started, for no cost (other than the cost of the upgrade). Either your VW dealer is a shonk or the car has already entered the manufacturing process.

Either way; VW & eBay will have the new climate control unit for sale next year (it is a replaceable part afterall).

I would cancel, just say it's because of delay. Go order somewhere else, because the car isn't quite as rare now you could probably get a better deal too.

Is a different colour screen on the climate control that important?

Mine is blue and whilst it would be nice to have the matching one, who cares! If you really want it, just buy it as a spare part or you will probably be able to buy one on Ebay in the not too distant future.

Given that we have been waiting for months, just like everyone else, I think I might be in a tad of hot water with my wife if I cancelled the order and started again. We have ordered all factory options; unfortunately that won't get us the features you got Billecartz [Still annoyed about the underseat drawers, rear sensors and additional power outlet in the boot].

The rear sensors are great, especially how they intergrate with RCD510. The draws and power outlet are over rated, if they werent there I wouldn't care.

The car just keeps getting better, just drove to Melbourne and back and averaged 5.9 litres per 100 km. Fantastic to drive and good for overtaking.
