I was told a similar story in that there were no discounts on the new gti, very few slots for the dealers to place an order. My dealer has chosen to order 4 up front, which they were then amending the specs when someone came in and bought one.

I asked for a discount on leather, he refused a number of times. In the end, I agreed to sign there and then if he took £500 off the list price, which he did.

Metallic Black, Monzas, delivery start of september on a 59' plate. No build date as yet. Counting the days...

Are you trading a car in?

Manmath, is there a reason why you're waiting until September? I was offered two black cars from stock last week when I ordered mine, both with 18" Monzas and a few other bits.

I phoned VW UK and they said the only way to get a car was a factory order with 12 week delivery, I just wish you could get a straight answer out of someone!

Anyways, stealer phoned today, car might be ready Friday and did I want Autoglym Lifeshine? No i'm not a lazy bugger that's never going to clean his car!

Nope, trading nothing in. Used to own an A3, but got out of my pcp deal when I bought a house...

The only reason I am waiting for a 59 is that apart from wanting to drive it right now, I don't actually need it so I can wait and save a little bit more of the maximum deposit I agreed to. He did have a look on his system for suitable stock cars, and I think there were a couple but I didn't mind waiting.

I had the audi version of Lifeshine on my A3 - I personally don't think it's worth it. Yeh the car looks great after you have spent 3 hours polishing it but in truth I didn't use the kit they give you to keep it's shine enough to get the value of it.

I ended up buying it from a vw dealer 10 miles away because my closest dealer tried to hard-sell the scirrocco to me even though I kept saying I was only interested in the golf gti. their loss i guess...

Dealers don't do themselves any favours do they? I'm buying 25 miles away as the dealer 1 mile away is an arse!  Like you say, their loss!

That Lifeshine is a commercial con!!! Like you say, you'll clean the car yourself and enjoy every minute of it too!!! Are they still charging £299 for it?

 :smiley:we take delivery of a shiny new MkVI in mid July. Black, 5 door, leathers, sun roof, bluetooth prep, winterpack, and a  couple of other things that escape me just now. We ordered it in April through a dealer site on the net and they quoted us a price which was 3.5k yes £3500 below list. I was sceptical at first and went to 3 local dealers and tried to get close and the most they would offer was £750, we showed them all the quote we had and they all said snap their hand off. So we did!! I test drove one a silver 5 door with dsg and it was nice. :laugh:
Cant wait now 3 week and counting
My advice, there are deals out there :grin:

Hi,
I've just ordered a Mk6 GTI from my local dealer.
3 door dsg in tornado red,black leather,18" wheels,ACC, winter pack and luxury pack.
Should cost £26865 but got it for £24575, I'm happy with that.

Haven't driven one yet but I know it will be good.
Delivery in September some time?
