Bye-bye GTi hello R

[p3asa]

I don't think I could buy a car for £20k off an individual however having said that, the very same car would probably be at least £23k off a garage with the exact same manufacturers warranty so there are savings to be had.

This is the email I have just received from my local dealership.

Good Morning ,

 

I just wanted to get in touch following your email last week regarding the potential upgrade of your VW Golf GTD into a new VW Golf GTI / R.

 

The reason for my email is that we have 19 more cars to sell to be registered this month for us to hit our target with VW UK, and as such we are offering the next 19 customers the opportunity to purchase their next vehicle from us at COST PRICE!!!

 

If you were still interested in upgrading your current car, it will never be cheaper than now to do it!

 

When would be best for you to pop in to come and see me to get something sorted for you?

What dealership is this and what R's do they have?

Salesmen will tell you anything remember 
What you want to do is find out what the Cost price is then hit them with it.
Dealers that sell through Orange Wheels and Drive The Deal are still making a profit plus giving the brokers a fee so the Cost price must be lower than that.

It will be interesting to see what they say to you.

Wow, not bad at all! If I could trek down to Birmingham I would, but some mileage that.

Orangwheels have been sh*te so far. Promises of calling me back etc to find out lads of today

I'm no where near Birmingham either, but if they have pre-registered cars you don't need to see it - you can buy it over the phone and they can deliver it

Its usually just in England they can do this in.
When I bought the GTD from Gillingham they offered to meet me at Carlisle. I asked if it would be on a transporter but was told it would be driven up!!
Eh no thanks.
I made a couple of days out of it and the train journey down made it all the more exciting.

If I go through orangewheels id just drive down to Chester or I could meet them half way and take it off the transporter for them to load my GTD afterword's. If all goes well id never let some chump drive the R up, be ragged to death. Carlisle would be easy enough

Oh yeah totally!  I would never let one of those monkeys drive my new car!  I meant get it delivered on a transport!

Matchboy, he has said that th GTD's GTI and Rs are flying out the window so i need to turn there to ascertain what they have.
