Just picked up a Mark 7.5 on Saturday and the front fog lights specified in the brochure are missing as VW didn't put them in during build . Seems dealers and other customers have been complaining and I'm not alone. Anyone else in the same boat? The group my dealer is in has now realised that they have stock of cars at other branches in the group that are missing front fogs too. Waiting for VW to come back and tell us what they're going to do.
I have just taken delivery of a new, facelifted GTD, and as you say, it has no front fog lights. I have emailed VW UK, but have had no answer at the moment.
The issue has been commented on the forum many times recently, but I think it is not acceptable, and I'm going to write a formal letter of complaint to VW.
One other interesting note - the
current UK brochure says that fog lights are included, so either VW UK have not corrected their mistake, or models ordered
now will actually get them.
I think they will try and get out of it saying something like "brochure specs can change at any time, blah, blah ...", but where do you draw the line? No heated seats? 150PS engine instead of 184PS ?
It's a ridiculous situation. Please can people post any response they receive from VW.
