I’ve just received confirmation the price is £47995 as mentioned in previous posts.
Performance pack is £3675 but it forces you to spec the tyres at £880 so ED50 with PP is £52550.

DCC is standard on the base car, or at least it’s not listed as a separate option, so assume it is standard. Price is £1535 higher than a similar spec Clubsport., assuming DCC is standard on base spec.

Out of interest I calculated the cost of a base ED40 3 door manual no options and it would be £44350 in today’s money - using the BoE inflation calculator.

I think it should have been £299 for each but doing both it was £499 in total.

Slightly off topic - how do people feel about fitting perforated discs on the rear of their GTI's?

Price wise they aren't much more or stick with the OE look?

Is yours just doing it in this cold weather? Mine is and I put it down to ice or mist over the sensors top of the windscreen.

Hi Golfdave,

I just want to let you know that your post on the GolfMK7 forum titled "How to retro-fit a bigger capacity battery to a Mk7 Golf" was great and I went through every page! In retro-fitting my 2017 VW SportWagen S with the bigger battery I finally found a source for the larger thermal case on Amazon of all places. For those who are still looking, the link is https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0DXLG45JN?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_fed_asin_title, the name of the item is "1Pcs 11 * 6.7 * 7.3in Thermal Battery Insulation Frost Cover for Audi Q3 for VW Golf Bettle Eos for Seat Altea Leon Protection Cover 1K0915411A,5Q0 915 411B" and the price is $15.99. It fits perfectly. Lots of folks seemed to have trouble with the tight fit but I figured out how to do it without any stress or strain. Thanks again!
