I couldn't agree more dave_r. To me there is absolutely 0 point in getting a brand new car if you aren't ordering EXACTLY WHAT YOU WANT! Otherwise you may as well save thousands by getting a ~six month old <10,000km car which someone else bought new and had to hand back due to changing circumstances (loan defaults, moved overseas, got preggas, whatever).Originally posted by dave_r View PostComment

I know the majority seem to be banging on about options not worth a pinch when you trade your car in/sell it in 3/4/5 years time *BUT*.....
Some things like the 'Comfort pack' will be standard in 3/4/5 years time and might not make a difference in value (apparently) but when there's 20 Polo's for sale for the same amount of $$$$ and one has climate/auto wipers.... I know which one people will want and it isn't poverty-pack air-con.

Except the "standard" A/C in the Polo GTI isn't povo-spec. It's the climatic version. So you set and forget the temp. You just adjust the fan speed and direction. Again, some Golf 6 GTI owners seem to dislike the climatronic in their cars... they seem to think it has a mind of its own (which i suppose it does -lol) adjusting the fan speed radically.Originally posted by Kane-St-Kane View Post
Personally I think the nice satin/chrome finish on the knobs looks better than the climatronic version.
The auto-wipers seem to be a point of complaint on the Golf V/VI forums for whatever reason. I had them on my 1998 Peugeot 306 and they seemed to work ok to me.
The auto dimming mirror is a nice to have. I wonder if you can get that as an aftermarket spare?
The major options that will probably nett you something down the track (for the right buyer) are the suede seats, xenons and touch screen radio.... all are blatantly obvious to someone looking at the car to buy.
Sunroof = like a house with a pool... some will love it..others wouldn't touch it with a barge-pole.
Does anyone have pics of the optional carbon fibre exterior mirror shells? Its listed as an Oz accessoryComment

I was offered it at a reduced rate if I took out VW Finance.Comment

I was offered... and also told that I could purchase it a few days before the 3 years run out if I wanted to.
So I'm going to wait for another 2 years 11 months before deciding.2011 Polo GTI | Flash Red | 5dr | Tinted | Std Bluetooth | Bought, Delivered & Driven since Dec '10Comment

I was hoping it'd be discountable if purchased upfront.
Not much of a negotiating position if your warranty is about to expire...
Does anyone know what RRP is for the extra 2 years?2006 MkV 2.0TDI -> 2005 MkV GTI -> 2008 MkV R32 -> 2013 Polo 77TSI + 2016 Mk7 Golf R WagonComment

Went and took one for a drive last night, not impressed. I joked around before the drive saying I'd probably come back in asking for the changeover figure from the 77TSI.
I would have thought they'd improve the steering for a GTI but its just DEAD. Zero feedback at all, combined with too much power for the front wheels and its just all over the place. Said lots of people would save some money and get a Polo GTI over the Golf GTI but I take that back.
Visually there isn't that much difference (infact the Boavistas look 11ty times better than denver/detroits) and the only interior feature that the 77TSI misses out on is the nicer steering wheel with paddles and MFD controls.
A few people said they wished they'd waited for the GTI after buying a 77TSI, I bet if they went and drove one, they'd reconsider that comment. I don't see the GTI being worth another $5-6k!Comment
