Hi,

Hope you don't mind me asking...

I'm thinking of ordering in the next couple of weeks.
I was going to pay cash – with a dealer negotiated discount – he has already mentioned the extra £1500 for the finance.

So what you did is basically a loop-hole? VW don't ask for the deposit contribution back?

And also, at what point do you sign the finance agreement? As you need to withdraw within 14 days of signing.

I signed the papers when I collected my car it was a bit confusing to start with as I try and change my cars every 2 years and as like you I pay cash, I borrowed about 17650 on paper the car was nearly 27650 i got 20'000 for my golf but on paper I only got 10'000 then the garage Paid me the remaining 10,000 back about a week later plus the 1500 I then paid the finance off I think it cost me £ 30 interest so it cost me 6150 to change and you still keep the 3 years free servicing hope that helps
I def called the finance in the first week to withdraw from the agreement then you have a couple of week to settle it and you have to do it by bank transfer

Thanks for the info. I've found a few forums (including Audi) with people discussing taking the VAG deposit contribution and then withdrawing from the agreement.
It just seems like it's doing something wrong, stupid I know.

the sales guys said that a lot of people settle the agreement like I did but there is more who just pay the payments so its a happy medium with vw

Cheers for the induction kit, I see what you mean about the noise but I actually really like it. It's more responsive like you said and just seems to pick up the turbo faster. For me it's a really good buy.

Here is a quick picture just pulled it out of the garage for a photo and back in again for the adhesive to set
I will post a better pic when it's next out I just didn't want to disturb the adhesive
They recommend to paint the middle lower part black what's your opinion I'm thinking of carbon wrapping the center lower part

i would say black to match the other parts of the bumper but carbon might be decent too
