Mate, $39500 drive away! No change over. My11.5 so BT and MDI were optional extra. Just because you can't do an awesome deal doesn't mean other dealers won't. Believe what you want, they were eager to move it on.

So true about 3drs. Has a limited market and hard to move. Lets face it, with the 30% depreciation in the Euro alone in the past few months (and probably a lot more to come), they could have sold it at $35k and still made a tidy profit! So if dealers think they are crying foul, SHOW ME THE MONEY!!!!!!

It probably not worthwhile commiting to a car just yet, purely because I'm not sure on the lenght of time it will take to move the XR5.

The longer it takes to sell the old car, the older the "new" car gets for the same price.

Maybe I am expecting too much for the price I am willing to offer.

Thanks, I had previously been in to Moorabin and spoken with a colleague of yours. He came nowhere near $47500, so I did some shopping around and ended up ordering from Bw Glen Waverley.

Ok back on the hunt.

What is everyones view on leather seats?

[Klink1313]

I love mine. First time I have had leather. Was worried about them being too hot in summer, but I bought a internal windcreen shield and use this and the aftermarket window tint to keep the sun off the seats and all is good. Much easier to clean/keep clean. Looks classy. Also they are heated which my passengers seem to like in winter.

Thanks Klink,.

I am deciding between sunroof and leather.

At the moment looking at Detroits + Candy white. Cant decide on what else I really need.

Not a fan. Wife has had several cars with leather (Captiva, Calais, Outback & a couple of others) & it didn't impress. It really is a personal prefernce thing.

OTOH, my cloth seat look like absolute rubbish because the velcro on my company uniform has fuzzled-up the material.

If I ever get the seats retrimmed i would get something similar to the Mondeo Titanium the wife had last year. Alcantra middle sections with leather bolsters.

There are many threads dedicated to this very question, such as:

http://www.vwwatercooled.org.au/forums/f112/mkvi-gti-cloth-trim-v-leather-38988.html

Suggest you have a good read through that thread, and post your leather vs cloth questions there.

i dont think you can compare the leather used in the Captiva and outnback and calais to that in the VW. I have owned all 4 (apart from the Calais, but my brother has had several as coy cars) and the korean/japanese leather is definitely of a different quality. The VW just seem to fit better over the seat....

I've sat in enough VWs & BMWs to know that leather isn't for me whether it be the carboard like Korean stuff or something a bit less manufactured.

As I said at the outset, it's a personal thing.

Sunroofs induce the same polarity in people - you either love them or meh. Strangely, I don't like sunroofs but would love to get back into a Cabrio again.... go figure.

Corporate Discount - VW Golf GTI

Hey Guys,

I am looking to upgrade my compnay car and am looking at Golf GTI 5 door DSG with Sat Nav and what I am after is a idea of pricing. Also looking a price for the above with detriots

I have contated a dealer on here, yeah I will get back to you, but nothing. I even bought a new GTI $54,000 worth last year and after three emails to that dealership and salesman still can not get a price. I am trying to work out my figures to see if I will be ok with my car allowance.

I know my company is still active on the list, any dealers here that may be able to help would be great.

thanks

Walk into a showroom and sit down and talk to the dealer and get them to price it up

you are right silver fox. I should give up my time, because A dealer who wants to sell cars because that's there job can not respond to messages to do there job and provide information, not hard information, even from a dealer which was happy to take $54 k of my money last year after I walked into there

I am in sales and for me and I think a lot of other woul agree service equals sales.
