Golf R Specifications and Prices - 2nd Edition

[Candyman]

What were the factory and after settings?

Hi

Alignment was done at pre delivery but it was pulling very slightly left so I got them to do it again, to VW specs

With VW, I plan an alignment regularly but will use VW specs

I didn't take note of settings but rears were out a few mm

Mmmmm, wonder what these VW specs are? I've put up a new thread so hopefull will get some feedback.

Ask a service dept mate. No reason why they wouldn't tell you

wow i got pwnd! guess i paid the price for 1-week delivery compared to your spec I am:

+ rising blue
+ ACC
+ 1 week delivery

- white
- leather + elec seats
- dynaudio
- satnav
- sunroof

and i paid only $2k less than you! that said i got $5k more than i expected on the trade-in since they could sell it now rather than sell it 7 months down the track. still, i paid quite the premium for fast delivery...

Finally the time has come for me to order my R
I am looking at ordering a CW 5 door DSG with black talladegas, Vienna pack and RNS510. At first I was thinking like a tight ass and considered buying a sat nav aftermarket and fitting it myself but if the price is right I shouldnt have to worry.

Spoke to someone at Burwin VW that some of the boys put me onto and he said he can do roughly around $57k for those options (hinting that he can do better) which was around $62 RRP. I am going to push for a bit more... is that reasonable? from what I have read I should be right squeezing a bit more out of him?

Adzy, Am I missing something?

5 Dr DSG = 52,490.00
19" Black = 1,300.00
Vienna = 3,300.00
RNS510 = 2,500.00
So the car only is $59,590.00

Standard Dealer Deliver is 2995.00
LCT on all that is 1,535.70
Stamp duty for VIC on that is 3,210.00

Rego for the 3000 post code (inc Transport Accident Charge and Insurance Duty) is 641.50
and standard VIC plates are 31.20

For a "RRP Drive Away Price" of $68,003.41
So if you've been offered $57k drive away, then that's already a saving of $11,003.41 or 16.18%

As I said, I might be missing something, cause I'm pretty tired and foggy from work... but yeah

Sorry mate I forgot the original quote was without sat nav and yes I know it is already a great deal as it is without the bs dealer delivery charge for example and I will be doing it on a novated lease also. I am being a tight ass trying to squeeze a little more but thought it was worth a shot. If I can get the sat nav thrown in for the same price of $57k Im wrapped!
Incidentally the salesman advised me that the 5dr DSG R with vienna and 19's was $62k retail
