Thanks for that.

Spoke to my local dealer, surprised him with the price?!? He wasn't expecting the $500 increase on the Trendline. He said they hadn't been informed of pricing and specs yet, but did receive a DVD for internal use, which gives a general outline. He said he'd driven one, was very impressed with how solid it felt. Plus he mentioned the Trendline will have penny-pinching wheel trims instead of alloys. That's a bloody Toyota trick...

According to Volkswagen's latest price list (27 Jan 09, accessible from the VW website), there hasn't been a price increase at all for the entry level model.

Was 25,490 just last month, even says so here http://www.volkswagen.com.au/vwcms/m...Cars/golf.html

Isn't that weird, they appear to have the same model listed at two different prices, haha.

Doesnt look like it.

Please meet us at our reception counter from 5.30pm, which is located outside Concourse Door 9. Here, you will receive your entry tickets to the motor show.



Refreshments and canapés will be served before we reveal the highlight of the evening, the new Golf, at 6.15pm.



The show is open until 10.00pm so there will be time for you to also enjoy the other highlights of the Volkswagen stand.

Edit: not sure yet, but I maaaay have a spare ticket if anyone would like to put on a short skirt, pair of heels and be my b*tch for the night?
