What happened to our free parking sensors / rcd510 update / ACC that was talked about.
Although we're a LOT cheaper than Germany, it seems our 'extras' have gone  :angry:

I'm still unsure about which colour to go for...
I'm at almost £33k - and then retrofit my RNS510 and Fiscon kit... then sell the RCD510 I had to update to so I could have a reverse cam!
Golf R... 3 door, DSG, Leather, Reflex Silver, Black 19" Talladega Wheels, ACC, Parking Sensors, RNS510 with Dynaudio, Reverse Camera, Luxury Pack, Cruise Control & Fiscon Bluetooth.

Agreed i was hoping for some of the goodies included!
 but i guess we'll have to make do with the bigger turbo, xenons, latest version of 4 motion and exclusivity
 :rolleyes:

Makes the GTI with 5k of extras and a revo remap look like a bargain !

As to residuals if few new ones are sold due to the price then the market for used ones will be a very limited one until the prices become sensible - the more you pay the more you lose !!

My dealer phoned me at 8.55am this morning to tell me I can order it now!
I have an appointment with him at 10am tomorrow to order it.
I wonder how long the delivery time is?

Away to VW.co.uk to spec mine up  :cool:

Pistonheads is quoting Delivery's expected to arrive in the UK February

Mmmmmmmmmmmmm.

A 5 door DSG with all the option boxes ticked  = £40,845.

£41K for a Golf!!!!!!! That is madness.

Like the fact they are offering black alloys as a factory option.

Even at the base price, ACC is an option. Am I also right in thinking that the RCD 510 is an option too?

Especially when a basic golf costs 14k. I would rather have a 14k model and spend the £27k on mods :laugh:

If Deliveries aren’t until February is this list price (£28930.00 staring price) including VAT at next years rate (17.5%) or are they going to be even more expensive
