Best Price for Golf MK VII (Australia)

[kure69]

Hi Guys,

The best I could do was 24.5k with metallic and no extra's for the base model Golf VII.
I could have pushed for 100-200 more off that price, but got the feeling that it was the lowest that all 3 dealerships would go.
So about 12% of the Recommended Retail Price.

At the end of a long day I decided that it was a reasonable price and placed in an order.
It's lucky that I did because if you get the car delivered before the end of the month (August) you get the 5 year extended warranty on the DSG auto transmission. As of the 1st of september it will revert to the standard 3 years. I hope I don't need it

Yes, VWG are offering 1k off the price of the golf at the moment for cars delivered before the end of the month.

Cheers...

Just exactly how much do you expect to buy the car for? I could put down that it was a Highline with (with a Polo thrown in) at that price and still have someone that question asked of me. I mean, honesty................. No, it's the base manual.............. What did you pay / expect to pay? $18,500??? Let's see your candour, now that I have lead and set the priceline................

Relax... I think you did very well. 3 years service thrown in is very nice. Your post was not clear about your car hence the question. Your deal sounded too good to be true.
I'd be happy to get the base DSG for 24k.

Give Adam Ned at Southern Classic a call then.................... I'm sure 24k for a base DSG would be doable. He was just great to deal with and I like to give someone who provides the service and is genuinely enthusiastic a bit of a leg up.............

They have just updated the Golf's online brochure and removed the 5 year DSG warranty from it.

I was at a dealer yesterday and asked about the 5 yr DSG warranty. The sales consultant told me that had ended in July. I thought it was bs, but maybe they have pulled the plug on that one.

I know the free servicing is only for cars delivered before August 31st, however the do bend this rule. But the DSG warranty was definitely 5 years when I paid my deposit and was the deal sealer so they had better honor that.

If you read past posts, dealerships have been saying that they are only for cars purchased before September.

Has anyone tried these companies that offer to help with purchasing a new car? Can they really get a discount greater than what one might manage at a dealership? I am told they deal with fleet sales and not consumer sales reps.
Would there be a catch if one bought this way (assuming the price was right)?

I have put out a request. Lets see what they come up with.
