Press Cars for Sale
On VW site. Including 0Y08 HHC wasn't that the one Autocar had? also the one that was on 5th Gear I think is on there. Sure they have been perfectly run in!

It says the same when I search though so I guess they call them up from VW? Porsche do the same thing.

Re: Press Cars for Sale
Yeh I agree but if someone wants a cheap Scirocco I reckon you could get a good offer accepted on a demo at the moment there are 93 available! Go with cash i reckon you could get my spec for 20 to 21k.

Re: Press Cars for Sale
I popped back to my dealers today to pick up my rear mats and they told me mine is the only one they have delivered so far (had mine 7 weeks). Their demo plus showroom model are still unsold and they have only 2 factory orders. I think the credit crunch is well and truly biting. Lets just hope VW do not flood the market or drop prices too much to shift stock.

That's quite shocking thought there were a lot of factory orders!sir_rocco wrote:I popped back to my dealers today to pick up my rear mats and they told me mine is the only one they have delivered so far (had mine 7 weeks).

Re: Press Cars for Sale
They all seem to registered OY08 and they will have VW as first owner and they seem to have quite low miles which I guess the maangement cars may not?adamj wrote:Daft question time, how do you know if its been a press car?

Re: Press Cars for Sale
Oh, and the sales chap also told me they were still under VW instructions to not offer any discount. !!!
Bet that'll change soon.

Re: Press Cars for Sale
Trade in which I am sure has something to do with it........ playing with figures I guess.
