The Official "I have ordered/received my new MK7 Golf" Thread

[petercr]

Finally got my 90TSI yesterday afternoon and it's now sitting in it's new home. Paid for Aspen alloys but also got a full set of floor mats (the premium textile variety), door sill protection (black/silver, front and back) and a full tank of fuel and have done about 100k's already (and the distance-to-empty is still going up !!). Drives nicely and is a big upgrade in comfort and driveability from my old Barina...

and a full tank of fuel and have done about 100k's already (and the distance-to-empty is still going up !!).

That can happen a lot. There is one regular run I do after filling the tank where I start the drive with around 830km showing on the range , I do 224km and the range is then showing around 950km.

Wondering if anyone can help - I'd like to be armed with as much info as possible before approaching the dealership.
I'm considering a new 90tsi DSG golf and have noticed the price is currently $24,990 drive away. I'm wondering if anyone has gotten a better deal on a base golf or if there's room to move in their promo prices. I remember 12 months ago when the press were brutal on the VW DSG issues, some managed to get 90tsi DSGs for $23-24K drive away.

Any input would be appreciated

Thanks for the responses guys, much appreciated. The checklist from "veew" especially.

I hope things don't get awkward next week, the delivery co-coordinator person has said the usual procedure is car will be shown to us for inspection *after* I hand over bank cheque.

Also I wonder if a short test drive with perhaps a demo of the DAP option is out of the question.

Well,it seems that Golf Rs are very thin on the ground.
I was told today it could be April/May 2015.
Feeling disappointed,but it is VW manufacturing Golf Rs in a drip feeding fashion to the Aussie market.
This would be the longest wait for a new car I have ever experienced.

I have ordered a 90tsi DSG and got floor matts, tint, metallic paint, full tank, premium plates for the $24990. Pick it up tomorrow.

When did you order yours? I'm hoping for early March for my R after ordering in late Aug.

I place deposit for golf R lapiz blue in early Aug, was lucky there was a cancellation and the car landed last week should be able to pickup the next 2-3weeks.

Mine must be on the same boat.....I ordered a Pure White R, DSG, Roof & DA on Friday. Said it arrived into Sydney on Wednesday, should have it before the end of the month. Tune, exhaust, springs....& ADV.1 wheels should complete the package.

What is the best price anyone's gotten on a 2014 103tsi with R-line package? Do you think it's possible to get one for under 36k?
