    Bargain MY15 Diesels

    I drove past the local Patricks distribution yard today and saw a bunch of MY15(?) TDI Tiguans sitting in the yard growing cobwebs. They've been stuck down the very back corner. There were also a few other diesel Skodas (a Yeti and some older Superbs) in the same place.

    One wonders when this stock is going to go on sale and what they're going to do to shift it (i.e. what sort of discount/incentive would be offered).

    Thinking there may be some bargains to be had as soon as the ACCC allows VW to sell these cars.

    Yep! Especially with new Tiguan here. I've seen a Skoda Yeti Diesel sitting in a local dealership for ages, they even had to replace the battery on it.. Brand new, they can't sell it untill ACCC hurries up, thousands to be saved for a perfect product thats for sure!

    Looks like there's more Tiguans than any other cars. A couple of white R-lines and quite a few standard TDI's.

    Likewise.

    I'd happily take one as is.

    Yes I'd be interested in these when they become available too. As long as timing lines up I'd take one for a work car for a couple of years. But the price would have to be right as there's no point paying top $ for a 2 year old car.

    I have some (potentially) bad news for anyone looking to snag the bargain of the century on a 2 year old 0km car.

    I'm almost certain these vehicles are all still caught up the dieslegate fiasco, no fix yet and everything is dragging on through the courts with ACCC case.

    The vehicles have now also been taken off dealers books so possibly they're going to be sold off to a fleet buyer or run through a government dept. Though first things first there has to be a "fix" agreed to, recalls & compensation for existing owners and then these cars will be sold.

    They may still get offered back to the dealers in case any dealer wants to run one or 2 as demo's. Unless they're giving some reasonable discounts I can't see too many jumping over themselves to take a handful.

    Suggest anyone interested talk to your dealer when the fix is announced and see if they can get their hands on any of this stock. By the sounds of things it may drag on into next year in which case these 2015 plated cars will effectively be 2 years old.

    Hi all, especially Tigger73.

    I think there is some movement at the station, as i have come across a cople of ads today for MY15 & MY16 130TDI Tigs, with "delivery k's" only. I saw one at a whopping 71kms. Another with 420. So it looks like some cars are being released!
