Clubsport order thread

[MaggotsRus]

So I think the forums views are right and prices are about to change again. The VW configuration I just built for fun (the clubsport for instance). I have just done a quick build on the same specifications and factory extras what I built my 45 with and same colour (with the new performance pack which is essentially the 45 kit without the stickers and some other cosmetic bits). VW won’t give you the price on the configuration at the end and neither monthly cost on the 5.6% finance so you just have to add it up yourself. This comes out £49,570 which is substantially more than I paid for my car. So we are facing some astronomic price increases on top of this quick guesstimates. Order changes may be not be a good proposition!

With the price increase, my car with this would cost over 70k Euro

Happy build week to me. However will it get built, half built, or not at all...

It’s getting crazy. The insurance have agreed a value of £49,000 for my stolen CS45. I’m happy with that result but it’s absurd to think that’s a true price value. I wouldn’t have paid that for it. To be honest, I’m not sure I’d have paid the list price.

I’m not in the market for a new PCP, but, I presume the 4 year GFV is offsetting much of these increases to keep the monthly payments reasonable?

I now have a scheduled build week of 29 so hope this goes ahead and I see the car shortly after 😎

Today I received my second update from the dealership since ordering at the end of March 2022. 

Have gone from no news in update one, to update two stating that my car is scheduled to be built in March 2023.  Have replied asking if a specific build week has been assigned.

Update three is apparently going to be in two months' time.  At which I'm sure little will have changed, if anything I'm expecting it to be pushed further into 2023.

Today the dealership has advised my car is scheduled for build week 12, 2023.  The Mk6 will be up around the 210k mile mark by then.

Well my clubsport is built and on route, currently on status “port of exit” so sitting Emden! 17 months later and I might have it soon

It’s good to see some progress with these builds at long last.
