The man maths is properly adding up now! Time to cash in the Legacy chips and go Yeti hunting methinks 🗻

Looks like Drivethedeal has the 8.5 now for ordering with 11-12% discount off list price.

That's a higher percentage discount than I was expecting.

It won't be enough for me to place an order though.  The 8.5 just isn't different enough from the Mk8.  I can't pay more money for what is substantially the same car.

Does anyone know when pricing for the 8.5 GTI will be announced? and when order books will open? Was expecting it to announced by now!

"Volkswagen says the eHybrid, GTI and GTE versions will join the range this summer"

July maybe? I don't expect to see the books open until end of August...
