If you're happy with it, but personally they would have to pay be much more to drive around in a Passat estate. :)

I am pricing up an R at the minute with a RRP of £41,680 and have a few offers of over 15% discount. The best at the moment is £34,232 which is a discount of 17.9% and that price is the same for both cash and finance.

Lookin at those figures I'm thinking they could do better there desperate to get these things out all I did was phone round different dealers get a price your happy with then go back to the original one with it... done forget the £1200 and the £1000 loyalty bonus  :whistle:

One dealer, Jason Hancock at Coulsdon Volkswagen offered no discount and I thought he made a mistake and asked if he had forgotten to include a discount and he replied saying that there are no discounts on these cars. I wonder how many cars he has sold.

My GTi is poverty spec except the DBP.

Like others only concerned on the monthly's, 4 Year PCP £340 a month no deposit.

Half way through now and still not got itchy feet to change yet which is suprising but maybe to do with the wife drives it more than me know!

I drive the wife's scirocco more than she does guess it's gonna be payback when the gti arrives. :whistle:

I can see the benefits of people not planning on keeping the car long term but I know Tesco were offering loans @ 4.3% which is over half the pcp terms without the big lump at the end if your planning on keeping the car :laugh:
