Just got an e-mail from Drive the deal, to say that you can order the mark 7 through them.
Specced a diesel GT up with metallic paint, uprated nav, xenons and sunroof and other bits and bobs.
List 28K, discounted to 25K, which I didn't think was too bad.
Tornado Red Mark 6 GTI
Carbon Steel Grey Mark 7 GTD

Previous: Mark 3 TDI GL
              Mark 4 GT TDI
              Mark 5 GT TDI

Had the same email and was going to do a similar spec. Not bad 10% discount.

Lee - what would you expect a "standard" dealer discount to be? The same/10% or less/more

Oh discounts already. I'm liking that. I wonder if we'll get discounts on the GTI straight away.

The front end margin will probably be less on the GTI/GTD & R so I suspect the discount will be a lot less?

Not much in the way of options at the moment, the pro nav system is quite reasonably priced compared to the RNS510 at £1650 and the GT gets the "Donkey D!ck" style 18" option wheels that came on the Adidas edition! :grin:

It does seem to get quite a lot of equipment as standard though? (The GT that is)

£785 for Xenons is that std price or will it go up for the GTD/GTI ect ect?

It'd be nice if it stayed the same or even standard on the GTI/GTD considering some of the previously option only kit is now standard? Like nav and parking sensors etc.

I would expect much less discount than 10% at dealers as they will struggle will allocation like the early mk6's so they won't be desperate to take orders for cars they can't even order.

We are not going to be offering much if anything for quite a few months, the day to day customers we have are not comfortable buying anything online let alone a car so in most cases we don't need to compete.

Or if we did take any big discounted orders they would be far down the list on allocation and then a much lower px price. As you can bet your bottom dollar these online brokers will take order after order without actually being able to place it.
