-
Arrives next friday :evil:

Got fed up waiting for the R20 and in order to beat the price increase decided to place an order before it happens. Since it's circa 3 months to delivery, decided to wait and take delivery Jan 2010, so fingers crossed. It's going to be a long four months.
-
Ordered July, build week 42. Red 5dr DSG, RCD510 dynaudio, sunroof, luxury & winter pack, park assist with rear view camera.

Good choice in my view. There is no reason why VW would launch R20 anytime soon as "standard" GTI sells just great. The only concern I would have is Jan delivery as you could be hit by the VAT increase. Try to get the delivery in Dec if possible or at least the invoice with Dec date.

Ordered end of May.
Carbon grey
18 inch Monzas
Convenience pack
Cruise control
Rear parking sensors (locally fit rather than the VW front and rear ones - £200 as opposed to £400 plus)
Arrived in June and took delivery 18th July.
In love ever since!!!

Thanks, hopefully I’ve covered that one. Had an interesting chat with the dealer when I finally ordered the car. Effectively he asked does it matter whether you pay 15% or 17.5% as long as you get the car for the price I was prepared to pay. So we agreed a price I was happy with, how they do it to meet the price and also ensure it’s registered in 2010 is now up to them. I also sent them a purchase order with these constraints, which they accepted and they then took my deposit of £500. Have to wait and see, but I will be hacked off if they let me down.

They are obviously taking the VAT hit.
At the end of the day a car valued at £24k would only be costing the dealer £600 to take the hit.
Any decent one hoping for a sale would just take it on the chin.
I reckon between now and the next few weeks will be the best time to get them to accept.

Got mine (the carbon grey one with Interlagos wheels) 3 weeks ago now, but I've hardly had chance to drive it, what with holidays and all. Only done 250 miles, but so far I'm lovin' it ;)

Had mine just over 2 months, spec as in my sig. In the process of mulling over a Revo remap!

Can you change the poll to include anyone that has decided not to purchase a Mk6? Or is that to negative?

Seriously considering one at the moment depending on how I can structure a deal.
Looking at Candy White, DSG, xenons, MFS, 510 Dynaudio. In SA the leather is std so not an option also 18" and a few other things that I've noticed are optional in the UK. Still unsure about a sunroof. Had one on my 5 and it's not really functional. Only looks cool :cool: but mine had a slight rattle and wind noise at higher speeds so I've not made up my mind yet :rolleyes: Would rather use that cash for the Dynaudio speakers....
2nd colour choice (more stylish) would be the United Grey :smug: but this is the same colour as my ex Gti.... :grin:

gabrialboy you're nuts getting a Golf in SA(apparently), my sister was going to get one then was looking into all the details and stuff then found out they're one of the most hijacked cars :shocked:
