Just been offered a new (MK7) R, 5dr, white, manual, standard spec for £25,995. Good deal?

Is it totally new as in 0 miles and 17 plate? Then yeah I'd say it is. Same price as they sell 16 plate ones with 6k miles on them.

Yep, new 0 miles (or maybe a few delivery miles), and would be a 17 plate.

Then yeah seems like a good deal to me. Just a note though, white is the 2nd most unpopular colour from what I've seen on the used car market and I think DSG is more popular than manual too. Could affect the used price when you get rid of it.

Interesting, where did you get those stats about colour and gearbox? TBH, if I did go ahead and buy it I'd be looking to keep it for around 4-5 years.

A quick look at Autotrader and I can only see 3 white ones on there from 2015 and those are £21k, £23.5k, £25k

Nice find. Just wondering whether they're reducing prices ready for the new MK7.5 and the April 1st new car tax rises? £26k is already £6k more than I was thinking of paying so I'm not sure my bank balance would agree to the Clubsport prices, even though they appear very good  :smiley:

It's just what I've noticed from looking at the prices on Autotrader for the past 7-8 months. There was a lot of standard white or red Golf R's around because that's what most lease cars are specced as, so their value depreciated quite fast.

Picked up my R on Friday  :smiley:

Got it pre-registered (registered by 1 day and 67 delivery miles to my nearest dealer on the clock) for £25k. Standard spec but wow, you get a lot as standard. Absolutely loving it.

Just joined as I picked up on Friday:
66 plate GTI
PP
6800 miles
Ex dealer demo
Oryx (?) white
Pano roof
18's

Was up for £22900 and I signed up for the pcp deal so got £1000 off and 2x free services plus a years road tax.
Paid off the car the next day as I had cash.

Really good deal I thought.
My first VW and I'm very impressed. Such a comfy car with a good bit of poke when needed. Fantastic quality inside too and I've been loving that roof this weekend!
