[newgolfowner]

Just received an email from my dealer saying that my Wolfsburg is due to be delivered in April 2018. One of the later/last allocations I assume...

that's insane...

Have not heard back ywt will give em 2 days then drop in on thursday if i have not heard
Car is already in Melbourne dealer will have it this week pick up on about the 5th to 7th july
You bet im going to squeal if they don't give me a discount will threaten a big social media hate campaign and was going to get dynamic indicators and a few other items will cancel those and go to another dealer

Lol! Let us know how it go. Will email my dealer too. But not holding my breathe considering it is a gti and is already built and on its way. Hmmm...😑

Have you been given a price on the GTI yet? If so, are you able to share? I'm keen on one and want to gauge how much drive away is for a GTI.

i have been verbally told dec-jan (from Oct).. which I was expecting anyway..
first time buying new car (let alone VW), am I meant to get any order confirmation from VW?

You should get a generic vw welcome email though. Got an email notification once order was put in and another one when it is built.

Thanks mate. So roughly 48,600 without any options drive away. I'm guessing you didn't have much chance of haggling seeing that its early?

Was quoted 49501 dsg (no other options) & 46926 manual (no other options)
Yeah not much room haggling room at all. All I've got is around 700 bucks discount. You might have better luck to get more discount if you finance through them as well.
