Welcome to the new look VWWatercooled

After much work and little sleep there is a new version of the forums running on more powerful and recent hardware as well as an upgraded software platform.

Things are mostly the same, but some things are a little different. We will be learning together, so please post questions (and answers if you've worked things out) in the help thread.

The new forum software is an upgraded version of what came before, it's mostly the same but also a little different. Hopefully easier to use and more stable than before. We are learning together here, so please be patient. If you have questions, please post them here. If you have worked something out and can provide an answer,

    If it's built in November 17 it should be 18.5.. will be able to tell when you pick it up as the tsi badge is removed and there are 2 X USB ports in the front

    Not a bad price overall too.. but I believe the price doesn't matter as long as you are happy with what you paid and getting what you want.. and can assure you when you take it for its first drive you will be happy with what you spent..

      I can never be happy with the price.

      I just wanted to get the deal done. I had no clue about the Highline pricing as originally I wanted Comfortline with DAP. Then added the Luxury pack. Negotiated the price and went to the dealer.

      Then I realised Luxury pack didn't add LED headlights which I was told by one dealer it did. Then wasn't sure if I should go sportline or highline. This has been the most complicated experience of all the cars I have bought in my life. Packs make life hard. This thread was very useful but perhaps I should have come home and started over.

      • Hi FirstVWbuyer, had to laugh as I went through exactly the same thing and also ended up paying almost exactly what you did. Still, couldn't be happier and those 2 USB ports on the 18.5 are great as I have an iphone while my wife has a samsung (so different cables).

          Originally negotiated MY18 132TSi Comfortline + DAP + LUX + Metalic + Cargo Tray + Tank of Fuel = $49000. But changed my mind when I could get the Highline by end of next week.

          I think I paid $750 too much but will get the car in 5-8 days. Its either Dec 17 built or Jan 18 built dealer cannot check as it's VW Australia stock and not their stock (still in customs). I was told there are no MY18.5. Is this true?
          I think that's an excellent price. Well done. Can't believe you're getting it next week! Mine's still not coming til April (ordered earlier this month).

          Does Highline have LEDs or Halogen? I should know! But like you went through so many variations that I forget which has them. You'd think the Highline would!

              • Yep clearly my negotiating skills suck haha...

                Interesting that I never negotiated a full tank of Gas but both cars brought recently (both VW) came with a full tank of gas

                    I called a few dealers and I was told Highlines were 3-6 months wait. This dealer said I could have it now if I was willing to pay a bit more. I asked how much more and he said what will you be willing to pay? I think this is where I went wrong and said $100 a month.

                    I was told the cars ordered by dealers are cheaper than the "VW Australia stock" so dealers would rather sell you what they ordered or order for you than what they have to buy locally to fulfil your order. Unless the customer is willing to cover the added cost. Who knows what the truth is. I needed a car now (old one was an economical write-off in an accident) so should be happy.

                    • Still negotiating. Got it down to $45,000 for 132TSI Comfortline with DAP.

                      Any better deals out there? I wouldnt mind adding a luxury package but $50,000 is a bit over the budget.

                          Service alone is worth $2k. Awesome deal. How are you finding the massaging seats? I was very tempted but read online they are not very comfortable and lack padding?

                          • My dealer called. Said the car they were getting in for me already had a deal pending from another dealership, therefore, they can't get it for me. Now I have been advised to wait until the end of March as they will be getting it from NSW then. I told them that it only takes a day to come from NSW and they said they must have at least 6-8 cars to get a truck to bring them here otherwise the cost would mean they would lose big money. I could have gotten the car from anywhere with that timeline but went with them because they promised sooner delivery. How do I ask for something as they have conveniently ignored that they promised me 5-8 days? I asked them to put this on the contract but was advised I would get it 90+% but there was a chance they can't get the car and I will be advised later as the stock controller was not in that day. I was given a higher price by NLC with greater waiting time but I still feel cheated. How do I ask for compensation? 3 day cooling period is now over.

                              Tried to buy from Canberra but they laughed and were reluctant for even a $100 discount. Oh well, to Sydney I went!
                              Is that 55,200 with Rego?
