I guess 9% is too bad, was kinda hoping for more like 11% but lets see what VW offer as a deposit contribution, that might take it to somewhere better.

Now offering 11% discount, but no news on finance contributions  :whistle:

Apparently today VWFS have it on their system.... but you can't get quotes yet.... I have been asking ;-)

Ahhh on the UK configurator it has a Mk8 Golf offer:

5.4% APR representative.

£1,250 towards your deposit.


Guessing the GTI will be the same (at the moment thats only R-Line, Life and Style).... wonder if the shift to 11% discount is just including that on top of the ~9% before

My dealer says that VWFS had guessed it was going to be live today, but its not. VWUK apparently not decided what the offer for deposit contribution (and presumably interest rates etc) is, which we can conclude means its different to the other Mk8 offer.

Maybe next week...

It's almost like they were caught unaware that a new car was being released....  :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

I don’t believe you. These things normally run like clockwork at VW. Wait a minute.... :grin:

That is Moonstone Grey (non metallic). Dolphin Grey is a bit like the old Carbon Grey from the Mk6 & Mk7. I seem to remember Audi also used to have Dolphin Grey many years ago.

Noted/thanks - got excited (sort of) seeing a pic of a new one - will leave it on post though as may be of interest to others
