VW contributions now on GTD & R (£750) GTI gets £2000 31st July - 6th August

[Gtiless]

So basically the chances of being able to get a GTi or an R under this offer are nearly zero then?

(Unless I am misunderstanding-its to sell the vanilla stuff they are a bit stuck with?)

[drisser]

Could be tempting if it's a real offer.. But might be just marketing..

Noticed for example even solid red is a £250 option and only one flat black colour is free so VW now charging extra to not get your car in primer ??

Will mail my local  dealer but with the nav, winter and keyless standard, and if I can get 10-12% disc then 2k or so lopped off then a manual 5 door with PP as my only real needed option would come in at under £25k I am guessing ?

For this offer to stand you need to find a suitable stock/pipeline vehicle that can be delivered and registered before the 30th of September. That's where the difficulty will lie with the hard to get hold of stuff like GTI/GTD/R.

If you want a Golf match then there is thousands to choose from.....

Great, they should add that if you buy now and take the discount you might just get delivery in time for the reg change in March next year!!!

Err no, they are charging you extra to not have it in solid black....

[drisser]

exactly - may as well be primer

I have tried to find a petrol Gti to qualify for this offer, but none of the dealers who have cars pre ordered can guarantee they will arrive inside the Sept 30 deadline to qualify for the £2000 contribution.

I'm quite tempted to consider other makes of car after the pointless run around!

Send me a PM and I will try and help......

A main dealer I have been in today tells me the profit margin in a performance Golf is less than a "normal" Golf,as the price is higher and I cant see the price to manufacture can be proportionally higher I find this hard to believe.

I smell BS!

Smell it? I can almost taste it.

In no industry does a more expensive variant of anything have a poorer margin of profit than the cheap one unless there are massive bulk discounts going on for the cheaper one.
