    I hope so. The dealer suggested I go to ebay and buy one to install after I get the car.

    Well I know of a Polo GTI with a Nov 11 build that scrapped in with the upgrades by one week, so yours should definitely have them being a Dec build Think dealership said it was week 45 that the upgrades were incorporated.

    You should have as standard
    RCD 510 incl MDI and standard adaptor ( iPod adaptor is still extra cost)
    Comfort pack
    bluetooth which I have been told is a seperate touch screen that sits in a port attached to the dash. You can answer and end calls from the steering wheel buttons, but not make calls from there, they are done through this small touch screen, it's a shame they couldn't have incorporated it all via the RCD510 touch screen

    As far as a refund, best to ask your dealership.
    Hope the car doesn't increase in price? There is a clause in the terms and conditions about this and we the customer are liable for that, again I guess it's at the dealerships discretion once the new price is confirmed.

    We won't be getting any refund because of the discount we already got, plus a whole lot of stuff that has gone on with our order, so right now we are just relieved to even still have the order (along with a head full of grey hair and a ton of stress to boot) but back on track again now.

    Our order is due to go into production on week 7 (week of 13th Feb) so I wanted to check if we would definitely have these upgrades and yes we definitely will.
    We had already paid for audio upgrade incl MDI + iPod adptor, and comfort pack as additional extras at time of ordering, so our discount doesn't look so rosy now, pleased we didn't include Bluetooth, at least we get this thrown in.
    Not long for your wait, good luck with it all.

    Just got off the phone to my dealer re the updated range. There have been some price movements at the lower end of the range, but the GTI pricing has not changed (even with the inclusion of the upgraded audio & comfort pack). When I asked he said that I should get the price of these features back on my order. I didn't mention the discount I'm getting on the vehicle, so I'm wondering whether I will end up getting the value knocked off my order. Wait & see I guess.

    My missus' 77TSI was built on the 2nd week of 2012 and it should be on the ship by now.

    Had a quick chat with the dealer over email yesterday and he said that bluetooth and MDI is included in the car.

    Not sure how true that is.. He didn't specify any more details. *fingers crossed*

    Yep, the press release was published today:

    AUSmotive.com » Volkswagen updates Polo pricing & specs

    Volkswagen Announces New Pricing for Award Winning Polo Range

    Volkswagen’s revised Polo range is now even better value for money with a starting price for the five-door Polo Trendline of $16,990* and $18,990* for the Polo 77TSI Comfortline.

    The Volkswagen Polo range has redefined its market segment since its introduction to the Australian market and the new price points make it even more attractive.

    Standard equipment levels have also been enhanced for the entire Polo range. With the addition of popular features such as Bluetooth phone connectivity and Media Device Interface (MDI) as well as daytime driving lights, the Polo will continue to outshine its competitors.

    The sporty Polo GTI has also received additional standard comfort and convenience equipment befitting the top model in the range. The RCD510 touchscreen audio system, automatic climate control air conditioning, rain sensing wipers and automatically dimming rear-view mirror are all now included, adding even more value to an already well equipped model.

    Was the 66TDI always a 5 speed manual?

    It will be interesting to see what SKoda will do for the Fabia range. The Fabia RS will have come to market either incredibly cheap (vs Polo GTI) or loaded like the HK market model (sunroof, contrast roof etc as standard)

    hardly a problem. Most dealers have RCD510s laying around from Sat Nav upgrades. I was offered one on a Polo GTI deal for free. Would have been fitted at the dealership.

    So according to the photos of this MY12.5 GTI, the Bluetooth System used for the new Polos will be the Touch Adapter Voice V2. Funny thing is, VW's german online store (below) says it shouldn't be used with the RCD510 or MFD+ both of which are standard with the GTI (Regular polo is another story). It even says not to put it in the Polo GTI...

    Looks like I'll be replacing it with the 9WZ bluetooth system :\
