Yeh the VIC prices are much higher than that too. the 77TSI is ~22500 in manual or ~25000 in DSG. Also I was told the sunroof may be added later but I don't think it is a current option?

No post code!
Those or the base prices of the car. You can then each deal with the individualised costs yourselves. Everyone will have different onroads because 1) You are talking to different dealers who may have different dealer delviery charges, 2) You live in different locations, 3) You might be male or female, 4) You are all different ages, 5) You all have different driving records.

Even going to the VW site and putting in the post code is not likely to give you the price you will pay because:

This is the manufacturer's recommended driveaway price. Available at participating dealers. Private buyers only. Price is based on a 40 year old male with a good driving record and for private use. The final price may vary according to your circumstances as confirmed by your dealer. Options and metallic paint available for an additional cost. Please see your local dealer to confirm your individual price.

So in summary, the prices I posted are correct. They are the actual price of the car no matter where you go. The onroads will be different for practically every single person on this forum.

There's a detailed local press release and 2000px sized images now available on AUSmotive.

I just went and had a look over the car at one of the local dealers, and I reckon the new Polo looks great. The next GTI should be a cracker!

That's one fine looking little car!

Hi everyone.

I've just signed up as a member (see http://www.vwwatercooled.org.au/f98/...llo-44529.html)

I bought this car for my wife today:



I think she'll love it!

[Allegiance]

Let me be the first to say Welcome! Great little car I am sure your wife will love it. When do you take delivery?

[MK532]

Thanks for welcome Allegiance.

We could have driven the car away today, but we're waiting for the settlement on our new house to finalise first.

The dealer is holding the car for us for this period of time. I would hope that we are able to take delivery within the next six weeks.

[pixl]

Welcome to the forums! -- Very nice car. Never been a fan of red cars, but this new red is beginning to turn me around. Very keen to hear your thoughts on it once you've taken delivery.

[MK532]

Thanks for the welcome pixl. I will be sure to post our experiences once we've taken delivery. My wife can't wait! (Neither can I actually).

It's funny, now that I've driven the Polo 1.2TSI I am finding I really enjoy the turbo 'rush' that you get with the turbo cars (even though it's quite sedate in the 1.2TSI) - I don't get that with my R32. I think I may have to buy a new Golf R sooner than I was planning to....

I bought this car for my wife today:

LOL that was quick, I only test drove that car on Saturday. What price did you pick it up for?

[MK532]

Hi dave- o.

We have placed a holding deposit on the car at the moment with the balance due when we pick up the car (in about six weeks). The cost ended up being about $24K drive-away though this will hopefully be reduced, as we are still waiting to hear whether VWA allows the Corporate Plus discount.

My wife needed to get a new car ASAP (as she has been hanging for one for almost a year now (previously she wanted the MK4 Polo GTi)) so we went ahead and purchased brand-new floor stock, rather than waiting months and months for a new 'spec' model to arrive.

It sounds like you'll have some fun with the .:R coming, hey?

very ncie is that from barloworld in glen waverley? looks like the salesmen are looking for customers?

Hi OilBurna. No - it's not Barloworld in Glen Waverley, it's actually Camberwell Volkswagen. I did visit at midday, so that may explain the lack of customers....
