Not sure if this has been covered but noticed on VW candy white is now a £200 option just leaving salsa Red free.

Also on drive the deal web site there is an option for 90% tinted glass over and above the 65% for £275.

Candy White price increase is already covered here.

90% was annouced in Germany in October but the UK doesn't seem to have added it to the 1st October pricelist.

I think that's shocking.....I was looking at a CC and couldn't believe what they were charging for....such as £200 for black headlining ect....Now they are charging £200 for a non metallic paint....that's just taking the pi55.....That's why my next car wont be a VW.

Have you looked at Audi optional extra price lists of late - with say a base model TT you struggle to figure out whats actually included!

Its now on the configurator - £235 from memory. If its 90% tint is it not going to be like driving a van?

Seems like many manufacturers are cashing in on the popularity of White, Fords and Vauxhalls are also charging an extra £200 for it, glad I bought my candy 18months ago now.
