You been given an indication of when yours is due yet?

Been told 8 weeks, but I get the feeling that might be a little optimistic, but we'll see.


GTI mk6, 3dr Manual (Yes Manual! If I wanted a Taxi I'd hail one, not spend £1500 on one), Candy White, Full Leather, Xenons, ACC, 18", RCD510 + Dynaudio, DAB Radio, Winter Pack, Luxury Pack, Fiscon Bluetooth Plus, Golf R LED's.

Hi all,

I will be getting mine on Friday, 31/07/09... But as I mentioned in a previous thread, when I first saw mine a few weeks ago, there was a scratch on the left rear bumper. Although I am in constant contact with the dealership and they have promised that it will be remedied, I am keeping my options open. So today when I proposed that I see the car on Thursday before Friday to see that I am satisfied with the car and their remedy, I have not received any reply yet. Hmmm, I wonder whether a deep scratch can be removed or they just repaint the entire bumper? Would that reduce the value of the car?

Hmmm wished I didnt see the damage in the first place. It adds unnecessary anxiety and somewhat makes me lose a little of the excitement of getting a new car soon.

Ahh sweet, that looks so cool in white!

I'm seriously seriously tempted the more and more I see of these Mk6 GTi's!

Would that reduce the value of the car?


Only if it was badly done or if your future buyer reads this forum! Lol

But seriously it should be fine as long as repaired properly.

How about asking for some measure of goodwill? Eg FT indicator, DAB?
