Looks awesome in blue, congratulations.

Still can't get my head around the delivery time though considering I ordered mine in May 21 and I've been driving it for 16 months already.

Hello. sorry to butt in. Can anyone tell me the list price of a base Clubsport when they could be ordered? Was there such a thing as a discount? Thanks.

According to the paperwork the dealer gave me for my Clubsport order I placed at the back end of March 2022.  Vehicle basic price is listed as £31,262.50 ex VAT.

Appreciate there have been a few price increases since then though.

As I'm nearly into month 16, thought I'd see if the dealer had any new updates.  Apparently my order is now "Status 10", build week 34 (still provisional, which I'm guessing is what the status 10 means) and will be a MY24 model.

List UK price at close of ordering in May was:




The list price went up by over £1k in April for the final month before VW pulled the plug.

Discounts were small to zero generally, although there’s always someone who appears out of the woodwork who got a “bargain”

Mine was just over 31k ex VAT before discount as well, madness when you think of the base price now.

Took proud delivery today after an 20 month wait. Done over 200 miles already driving it back home and it’s clearly some car! Even while running it in you can feel the capability shining through, I can’t wait to put more miles on it.

Just two more unusual items to mention/be aware of

1) Has anybody had the stop/start NOT want to disable? e.g I press the button to turn it off and nothing happened (engine stays off at traffic lights). I noticed this happen once - I turned the ignition off and on again, pressed the start/stop button and the engine then remained running as requested. Let me know if you’ve experienced similar. Nothing serious but wasn’t sure if it was pilot error!

2) Check your paint carefully! I’m having my car professionally detailed/ceramic coated and my detailer has spotted 3 areas where the paint has been polished at factory (we know this because the delivery covers were never removed from the car) and in once case, not buffed out - leaving some firm wax residue! This will come off of course but just something to make owners aware of. My car was built 12/05/2023 according to its production line code birth sheet.

Anyway, here’s some pre detail pics. I’ll post some more when it’s fully sorted. Pic at the bottom shows an example of the Wolfsburg wax!

Looks good. Got mine from same place via DTD in same colour and wheel spec! Had slightly more of the packaging removed. Bizarrely I had lhd mats in the car (didn’t notice at pick up as like yours mine were in the boot)

Fortunately I’m close enough to the dealer they dropped me off replacements and took the others away. I have kept them unused though as got a set of the premium vw versions that are slightly thicker and have more prominent piping
