I know I’m tight but that seems pricey to me. So that’d put the Cup version near £40k and the R well over. Bonkers imo.

In terms of the Cup version the price will surely depend on whether some bright spark at VWUK decides it needs to come standard with Akrapovic exhaust. I’m working on the basis that it won’t otherwise it will be just under £40k. Without, then maybe £36,600

The R was cheaper than TCR (due to exhaust addition) so in monetary terms if there is the same difference between GTI and R then maybe £38,500 but I bet there will be a few more budget busting options you’ll want to add.

I think they decided to add £3k exhaust to TCR as it was a limited edition run and they wanted to make it extra “special” or else we can get another few grand out of buyers :angry:

I agree Fred, I could live without Matrix lights and that saving would go a long way to pay for DCC, HUD and colour

It will be interesting to see how they price the R, given that an Audi S3 is £38,765 including Comfort and Sound Pack, or £35,595 after broker discount.

It does seem quite pricey to me tbh. I'd deselect the matrix lighting if I'd get the cash back lol.

I'm with you on this. I'd happily save £875 and settle for the LED plus lights, which would be more than good enough my needs.

Thanks Evo, just saved me driving around VW dealers on Saturday to see if any GTIs had arrived. I'll watch for your further updates.
