Hi guys! Just joined the forum, just wondered if anyone on here has managed to secure a Clubsport S?
-
I've got an email from my sales manager saying I have.
I got in touch about a CS initially and then the CSS images in the old paddock at the 'ring circulated in possibly April which was probably a warm up for the lap record in May.
I put my letter of intent in on 8/6 (the week of the 'ring press launch) and got notification on 1/8 of a slot when the spec and price were confirmed.
I didn't get a colour choice but black was my top choice anyway
I haven't officially had my order processed yet as apparently the car is not on the system at present.
This Pistonheads thread is good and there is another person in there with an order

I am in the same boat waiting on order number atm pretty excited though
-
Congrats guys, I think this truly is the right car to buy out of all the GTi's, reduced weight, limited numbers, special discs hubs, etc, Just don't shut it away in dry storage. :wink:
For me, no pics will be too ordinary, can't wait to see the "ins and outs" of one. (rear strut brace and cargo net, discs, pads and hubs, rear lower valance or diffuser)

i received an email and order number a couple of days ago from Vindis Cambridge confirming that they have secured a ClubSport S for us :)
white with aircon.

Well said.
Unfortunately most of them will be bought as 'personal cars' and sold after a trip or two to the 'ring for a profit to other speculators/collectors.
Hey ho, that's what makes the world go round.

Congrats Andrew, that's now two members on here 'in the trade' both called Andrew that have them on order!
Looking forward to seeing what you do to it.

Very excited atm, thinking of having it clear wrapped to keep it nice as I do plan to use it properly lol, we shall see!
Also wondering if it's worth getting mapped

Need someone to collect it? :whistle: :cool: I can almost see the dealer from here.

You would be mental to get it mapped imo.
Every time you add or subtract from the limited production run car, it tends to devalue it. I would enjoy it how it was designed and as the engineers wanted it to be. I bet the test drivers never came away thinking after lapping the Ring in the fastest FWD hot hatch, d'you know what this car needs... Another 70hp and 95nm with a remap :smiley:

Yes very true there, I have a problem when it comes to cars I'm not good at leaving well alone! Maybe just a few small things that can be easily changed back the standard.

Hi guys! Just joined the forum, just wondered if anyone on here has managed to secure a Clubsport S?
We managed to secure 3 orders and successfully received allocation for all 3 lucky customers.
2 in white
1 in red
All supposed to be built before the end of the year.
2 bought by collectors and one buy an enthusiast

Have to admit I was offered but declined as it did not tug on the heart strings enough

Did you have a choice of colours?
How did you manage to get 3 as other dealers couldn't get one?
Do you know the basis of how they were dished out?

The most solid fact I've read on a forum ever.
-
My order was confirmed and on the system earlier this week.
I can't wait but hopefully my std Clubby will be here sooner to warm me up
-
I have had my Order Confirmed now! Even got my VW Order Number.
I was torn between Red and White, chose White with AC in the end!

Yes our customer had choices of colours, we managed to get 3 because we had 3 customer deposits placed.
Dealers who didn't have customers who had placed an order / deposit didn't get a choice, they were simply dished out to the retailers who had confirmed orders / deposits.

ill probably add a pedal box, and nothing else.. Yes it would be great to add a box and potentially add an extra 55/60ps but the car would then always be "marked" as a modified car and my plans are to keep it for the foreseeable future.. Saying that, i said that about the mint 1M i bought a few months ago and that maybe going this week...

Thanks again (as well as on other thread).
The dealership definitely had a customer (me) but I still haven't given a deposit but I do have an order number so I can sit back and dream about my 'black devil car'!
