Car available early - what do I do???
« on: 07 July 2009, 13:32 »
Hey,

Ordered my gti (metallic blk, 18 wheels and luxury) end of may - told delivery was first week in sept on a 59.

My dealer just rang and offered it early, been built already and available for me by end of the month.

Pros of having it early
• Drive it sooner!

Cons of having it sooner
• The garage I am building isn't finished yet
• I would be better placed financially if I wait till sept as I am saving up my 30% deposit in time for sep
• It would then be a 09 not a 59

So, if you were me, what would you do??

Firstly, congrats on your car !!!

That pro is so bloody tempting !   :grin:

So the dealer will have it at beg of Aug. Personally if it were me I'd tell him to keep it and not register it till 59.

Hi there

If I were you, you've waited all June and it will be all of July why not add another month and get it for 1st September delivery on a nice 59 plate.  You'll probably be one of the first for that month and you'll turn a few heads in the fact that you have yourself a lovely new car add to that, that it's a GTI it's a no brainer!!

Congrats on a nice sounding car and the fact that it's black even better cos mine is gonna be pearl black and I'm going to hold off till September too. :grin:

Get it now.  I wouldn't be able to go without sleep until September  :evil:

At the moment you would be fairly unique on the road.  Come september maybe not...
