Price increases?
« on: 10 December 2017, 20:03 »
Into the last three months of my GTD PCH, looking to buy a GTI again and have been checking discounts via DTD, Orange Wheels and Car Wow.

Car Wow have stated there is a VW price increase effective 20th December, I cannot find any further details on the web.

Anybody know?

Cheers

Wouldn’t surprise me, I’ve kept an eye on GTI (new price) since ordering mine in July and they’ve not increased yet.

Usually is around this time of year... probably to try and get you to order before end of the year... certainly they pressurised me about ordering then, which I was adamant I wasn't going to!

I've been contacted by the dealer that my car has been into that last few times wanting to sell me an R because they know I have the choice of buying my sister's Clubsport. He said that the price will be going up in the new year.

If sales are a little slow, don't be surprised to see discounts rise to nullify the price rise.

Also the end of the month is always the best time to buy a car.

DTD confirmed a price increase from Wednesday so i pulled the trigger and ordered the GTI;

3 door manual
Isaac Blue Steel
19" Brescias
Dynaudio
Rear View Camera

Very happy with DTD discount, Orange Wheels got close but Carwow were mostly miles away.
