  • It's here. Pick up Tuesday :)

    Bayford Epping just emailed...my TSi is in and ready for a new home.

    Picking it up Tuesday, with comfort and audio packs, tinted and matted, and with a rather nice RNS 510 to take me home in style....DSG style....


    Any things to look out for whilst in the presence of the dealer ?

    Cheers

        I remember that feeling; counting down the days. I was due to pick up mine today, but at 10:30 this morning it was delayed; again. I hope you have more luck!

          What reason for the delay?

            Just one of those things; they haven't been able to complete the pre-delivery and fitting of accessories. No big issue; like you after waiting so long it just would have been nice to get it for the weekend. Hopefully you get the new air-conditioning module [If you purchased the comfort pack] and the new antenna, which I didn't know existed until I saw it on mine at the dealer [It is just the shorter stubbier version].

                Not sure if there is one; as the first time I saw it was at the dealer today; its not as short as the ones people were buying from dubaddiction, but it was a lot shorter than the ones that came out in the first batch that had the shrink wraped wire around the top. When I get it [Anybody's guess] I will post a pic, but you will probably have yours before I get mine.

                    I too got my Polo though Bayford Epping (albiet a GTI instead), seems like they have had some sway in getting cars pushed though the crap from VGA!

                      And you were happy with the dealer experience ?

                        I know you and Gav probably may have received a good experience at Bayford, but mine was absolutely atrocious, my experience is described on an earlier thread, it was so bad that I actually cancelled my Polo GTI order and made a complaint about the dealership, the order eventually taken up by Gav, enough said

                        Just maybe, certain salespeople and managers had a huge rocket up their arse which improved customer service. Although I would never go back to that dealership for anything in the future, I wish you both well

                        Just thought I would put some balance in the discussion.

                          Yes, very much so but not enough can be said about GTI Joe's experience, it really was a very very poor mistake and I believe that the balance from that must be brought about.

                          That being said, Barloworld in Glen Waverley wasn't very good to me either in the early days of VW ownership so there was no way I was going there to buy the Polo! If everyone listed a bad experience that they had with a dealership, let alone and retailer, I think we would crash the whole site!

                            yeh I heard about gti Joe and the troubles. I recon said rocket was directed at said salesperson. Glad yours was on the positive side. I'll be posting here either way but obviously expecting a positive experience.

                            Feel like a kid in a candy store. Gimme gimme.

                              ...and indeed it was positive. Picked up at the airport in their polo gti, dns510 installed, 100% presented. Coffee for me, sweat for my little un, an hour later off we drove. Nice. V.Nice. Dealer knocked another fifty off the tint install. Off we set. Perfect. He phoned next day as a follow up. Tops.
