VW Prices and specs are beyond me!

Just seen an advert for a Passat Highline Plus starting at £21,345.

So it comes with leather upholstery, heated front seats, a touchscreen sat-nav, bluetooth and cruise as standard.

Why is it these are only available as pricey options on the GTI which in itself is a more expensive car anyway!

I believe that VW takes its customers for a ride and just try to p**s us off.

+1.
BTW, saw only one Mk 6 Golf in Copenhagen: a white 5 door Bluemotion on very small wheels which made it look really top heavy!
Cars very expensive in Denmark due to high taxes. Most expensive cars were Mercedes taxis!
Very expensive city with prices twice+ those in London.
Very friendly, happy and kind people with a great sense of humour. Nicest people I have come across apart from you!
Won't be going back unless it is for work and all paid for.

I also know this post will irritate GTi forum flatearthers!

Supply and demand. People pay for it, they provide it. On the flip side a large chunk of profit goes towards new product development.

For better or worse VW are not a company that stands still, one of the reasons why the British car makers fell on their arse.

The Passat is being replaced soon, that's why.

Oh right so that's them ridding themselves of surplus stock?  Pretty pricey if there's a new model coming along soon.

A friend of mine, who is a sales manager, has one of these.
The leather is really horrible and cheap looking and after 2 weeks of use it looked 10 years old.
The seats don't grip and one keeps slipping forward when braking and sliding around when going round corners.
That was one sick cow they used!
