GTi - Price Increase
« on: 01 May 2009, 13:28 »
Was £22,400, Now £22,415

Why raise it £15 ? Why would VW do that.

You have to wonder what that £15 diff is going to do for them apart from piss off their customers like its done with me.

Yeah, we know its currency variations, but they are already shafting us up the a-hole, why add the extra. Silly really. When I goto the dealer, if he doesnt take an extra £15 off I wont buy it   :grin:

They have to some how counter balance the Veyron shortfall in terms of it's retail price to it's development cost, so a percentage has to be added to the buyer of the Golf, Polo etc...

I think it is the Road tax that went up today 01May by £15 for the CO2 rating of the car.
