Hi all just an update to the who is going to pay the extra 2.5% VAT. I have contacted volkswagen customer services , and spoke to a knowledgeable chap . He was more than interested when i informed him my car was ordered 15th September 2009. He gave me a case reference number and asked me to contact my dealer , and ask the dealer when the car was actually ordered with VW UK . The reason behind this is , sometimes when you order your new car it may not be actually ordered the same day ,this can be that if the dealer has already got his allocated cars it may be up to two months before your order is processed. fortunatley my car was ordered the next day 16th September 2009. as far as i,m concerned the extra VAT should be paid by volkswagen uk . i ,m waiting for a phone call back from the dealer when he has spoken to someone higher up who deals with volkswagen HQ i,ll keep you all posted.

Had a phone call from my vw dealer to inform me that the man from VW HQ says yes .
That is yes they will pay the extra 2.5 percent VAT . the deal is if the car arrives 28th Feb then I will take delivery . As the car is being built week 7 (that's next week ) approx 2 weeks to ship over then that takes it to 8th march So all in all good news . Just goes to show a calm approach is always best as     
Jumping up and down will get you knowhere

Well I hope for you it is a march divert and the new 10 plate. However dont bank on it asyou car could be shipped end next week if gets built mon/tues. Odds are in your favour especially with a bit of snow on the way.

to be honest after a six month wait sooner rather than later would be good as only i would know if it was a (59) or a (10) plate as i have a private plate

You may find some of us set a presidence with VW for this outcome with discussions with VWcs for the past 4+ months

I presume that vw uk are painfully aware of the ongoing gti saga , and have put in place this scenario for customers who shall we say make their feeling known . By the way threatening to cancell the order may indeed be what the dealer wants , he will have a car he knows he can sell with no discount and at full 2010 price.

Glad yours has been sorted.
