A happy accident?!

CraigW: it will probably add very little to the car, 20% of original option price if you're lucky. Out of interest you should try and get a solutions quote with and without it and see what the final guaranteed value is for each quote. PP has got far more chance of retaining a decent amount of purchase value.

I've never been a massive fan of the PCP route to be honest. My preference has always been to try and own the car outright at the end of the term. I tend to keep my cars for 4 years so im basically looking at a 4 year loan which i was used to paying with my current car.

CraigW: It would still be worth getting the 2 quotes just purely to see what retained value VW put on the presence of your proposed additions (the difference between the 2 quotes) - the figure may surprise you. You can take up VW finance for straight up complete payments over 36/48/60 months, paying the "token" final payment fee (£60?), may be handy if you can't get a proper bank loan with less than 6.4% APR

Thanks. I'll definitely look at it in more detail. Fingers crossed by the end of this weekend i'll have an order in place

Just repeating what I said in the price increase thread, to say that if you decide to change your mind on your spec now, you do not necessarily have to end up with the whole car getting re-priced.  Head office can (at their discretion) override this, so you would only pay extra on any new things you added.  The old car price and remaining extras would be at the old price.
