The Official "I have ordered/received my new MK7 Golf" Thread

Had planned on the sunroof but changed my mind after a lot of consideration.
Chosen the Oryx Hatch.

Hey Dude, did you take delivery? If so l, what's your impression?

Have the inspection booked for this coming Saturday , but will confirm that during the week.
I am sure I'll like it as the white car with black trim has looked great on golfs - even for the last 40 years
The key features for me were the Prets - would have needed aftermarkets if got the R
The Carbon seats - having sat in 7.0 Wolf I knew I liked those seats the most.
Was planning on ordering my car this month for delivery in December but the minute I heard that the Wolfsburgs were coming it was a hurried call to the dealership.

So got delivery booked for 1 September and Detailing booked for 14 September and just got the news from my broker that my money won't be ready for 3 weeks. I can get it for the 1 Sep if used another lender with a slightly higher rate.
What a roller coaster, from expecting dec delivery and now to have it so close and yet so far.

My story...been looking for a Mk7 GTI and had found an MY15 in black that I liked, DSG, low km, private sale. Except it had a few annoying scratches and marks, typical shopping centre dingles. I liked it, but wasn't completely convinced. Plus, I had a preference for the BiX lights with LED DRL, something only the MY16 and beyond had. So I saw 2 at the local dealership, both demos. One was red, fully optioned, leather, sunroof, manual...MY16 and under $40K - it had hail damage which had been repaired. I liked it immediately..but when I arrived at the dealership it had been sold. So then I looked at a Night Blue MY16, no options, 6MT...long story short, I put a deposit on it today. Should have it by Saturday. The Night Blue has grown on me...I don't think I've seen any in that colour.

Night Blue is a rare colour, not too many around, but I like it. You see a few regular Golfs in that colour - Alltracks and MY14 hatches (it was discontinued after that.) Plus GTIs and Performances up to MY17. It is not available in the 7.5 Golfs though.

My MY14 Tiguan is Night Blue and I really like it.

Hey guys,

Just had a look at the Highline Golf fully optioned with all packages. VW Online says roughly 43k after build, do you guys reckon from experience I would be able to neg down to $40k?

I was told it is available in Atlantic Blue, but if I want Pearl Black I would have to wait till the end of the year as it is not in stock.

This is my first new car buy ever, so I am not that experienced...

My ship (the Morning Lucy) is currently unloading at Melbourne, next stop is Wollongong where (hopefully) my wagon will make its way to me. Not too long now

You should be able to but bear in mind that the current Volksfest sale has already knocked a couple of grand of the regular driveaway pricing. My Alltrack had a driveaway price of $49630 on the website but the invoice showed the full price as closer to $53k which is similar to the list price another dealer showed me. I did get it a fair bit lower than the driveaway price
