Re: Shell V- Power 5p off promotion on 14/2/2012

Just filled up, not empty but took £60 worth. I said to the girl is that the price with the 5p a litre off? She said "eh? what are you talking about?" and a voice from a back office shouted, "yeah, it's already off!" So hopefully I got it with the reduction. But as I don't know t...

Re: 2.0l TSI things to watch for

Not all readers are writers! Anyhoo, I'm in a similar position and looking to change to a scirocco. My advise to you would be to read up on old posts and get a feel for the little things that do go wrong. That will also give you an idea of spec's and model year changes. In my limited experience the ...

Re: Used Prices unrealistic and nothing selling?

How annoying, but yes - that has been priced well beyond its true worth! Would not surprise me if that is the kind of figure that would have been offered as a PX. Again I'm with you on that. I'll bet the p/x price they paid for it will have been the £11995, so they're only on target for £5k mark up...

Re: Used Prices unrealistic and nothing selling?

@Faigy,Thanks for the info.

They have not got back to me regarding my enquiry, but I just checked the Hadwin website and the £11,995 car is now at £16,995!

Wonder if they will get in touch?

Re: Waiting game

You lucky basts with the company cars. I have to buy with my own hard earned!

Still eight weeks will fly by, any chance of letting me know what the final discounted price was? I'm in the market and if there is not too big a difference from used to new I might go the extra mile and buy new. TIA

Re: Used Prices unrealistic and nothing selling?

Just browsing the used Roc's on the VW website, and saw a Rising Blue 140 TDI at £11,995! :eek: Admittedly fairly basic spec (cloth), but still on 21k miles for an 09 plate! Quite shocked to be honest. Hi, which dealer was that? I'm looking to buy a (preferably rising blue) Scirocco . (Sorry if thi...
