So went to Lookers VW at middlesbrough today to try and do a deal on a new Golf R, wanted to trade in my 59 plate GTI (12,000 miles, absolutely mint etc) and got offered £15K and £300 extra if i left the BBS CK's on!!

It's hard to gauge a PX value, has anyone any idea's on what price i should be looking for.
Oh he also said he'd knock a grand off the RRP on the Golf R. 
Going to try Pulman VW @ Durham tomorrow and see what they say.
I actually ordered a new R yesterday [Price with my spec added £38,134], traded in my March 10 GTI with 7500 miles on clock [spec as per sig]. After a lengthy discussion and some bartering I ended up with £18,134 for the GTI, this is allowing for 6 months before delivery of the R, so actually I got the equivalent of around £19,500. No discount on the R though, but I was happy with the deal overall. It's not so much what you get for your car but what the deal costs you overall, yours is a bit older than mine and has more mileage, but £15K is taking the p*** 
The new R is a lovely car, Its the best car I've ever had for sure. I'm sure you'll love it regardless of how much you spent.
