Re: Waiting on roc for ages.... getting annoyed with wait no
Mine is actually a lease also...... and I know that the lease company I went to to buy the car had 15 people waiting for a car the same time I ordered in Aug..... most of them cancelled!

Re: Waiting on roc for ages.... getting annoyed with wait no
Yeah it was because VW decided to upgrade all the 2l diesel engines to Bluemotion ones, so they had to stop the build line and start afresh with all the models, think the passat and golf were first in line...... the scriocco was probably one of the last... v annoying tho... think I must have ordered...

Re: is the bluetooth kit already installed if you dont order
Ok yeah that might be good idea, at least at end of lease I can take out unit then....

Re: is the bluetooth kit already installed if you dont order
Someone told me they were and just believed them stupidly...... I did think it made sence tho as thought it was just a mic (which would be buttons) and the bluetooth was built into the CD unit so therefore would just need enabling.... but obviously more to it... I take it its cheaper to pay £250 on ...

I hoped to get satnav also...

Vat and leasing companies?
Hi,
just wondered if anybody knew if the VAT increase will effect personal lease cars? even if the lease company bought the car at 17.5% rate?
ItS a question i didnt ask.... I do expect it to go up but just wanted to check it cant be argued?
cheers
