I wouldn't dare attempt it myself  :grin:

Thanks for all the replies though, seems it's not as expensive as thought!

Anyone know of a VW dealer in the London area who has the special offer price on?

@shail where is your local dealer quoting £350?

Morden (Lookers) VW quoted me £780 yesterday. Unbelievable.
There is a VW offer of £399 at the moment but Lookers said they don't sign up to offers.
Outrageous really.

Outrageous really.

I rang Morden Lookers yesterday too and they also quoted me £780! Outrageous indeed. However, Motorline Coulsdon quoted me £449.

I rang Inchcape Southend on Sea (I work in Southend couple days a month) and they've got a special price on until the end of December for £349, I've booked my car in for Thursday  :smiley:
