...Slight upgrade from her 1.0 Yaris!  :grin:

kin'hell Tom  :grin: :grin: :grin: :grin: :grin: :grin: Has she driven anything as fast before?! :rolleye:

Nope, would let her loose in my TT but that was sold last week. There will be numerous driving lessons taking place when it arrives. That's if she wants to drive it, her least favourite colour is blue. In her words 'I'd rather keep my Yaris if you get it me in blue' so what did I do  :evilgrin: :evilgrin: :evilgrin:

Not strictly a purchase but a new car for the misses, couldn't miss out on these silly offers on them!

What kind of offers are being run on these? Not after your details but what's being published?

Gone but not forgotten :-)

I got this on lease, the base price is £179/month with 6 months deposit over 24 months, 5k per annum, I added a few toys so it went up a little. Still crazy cheap for the kind of car your getting! There going by the ship load apparently.

^ Is there some sort of final payment, or do you simply return these kinds of cars (if you don't renew on another vehicle or buy out the one you've had of course) ?

Yeah went last week, wasn't being used at all, I would have passed it onto her but we need more room. This is a great trade off to be fair. I'm feeling quite abused though, I change from RS to Berlingo van and she changes from Yaris to Golf R  :grin:

No final payment just return the bugger after 2 years. They have to be in perfect condition though, lease companies are known to bum you to high heaven for even the smallest scratch or scrape. That could be interesting with the misses at the helm  :smiley:

Ive seen quite a few of these on the road now, not surprising with lease deals like that :surprised:

Theres no way you could pick up an S3 for those kinds of deals, which should be good for the residuals.

You gonna mod it Tom or are you taking baby steps with the missus.

Bought myself this today...


And put a deposit on this



Just have to wait 4 months til I'm back from afghan now! Something to look forward to  :happy2:

Well I waited 4 1/2 months for this, time spent in the desert of Afghanistan. 5 days after collect her I had to throw myself through a hedge avoiding a car overtaking round a blind bend.
Bike is totalled and I'm now laid up at my mum and dad place with a few bruises and a snapped leg, just need to wait another 8-10 weeks for my leg to fix and I can go looking for another bike......... :rolleye:

It's because they can't shift them for the price VW want for them.

Good news as you say, they're gonna be more common place then normal MK5 GTi's soon  :grin:

It's almost the same as VW did with the R32 and R36 but at the wrong end of their lifecycle while they are still at a premium price.  :confused:

My thoughts exactly. I dont know why they seems to be wanting to virtually give them away...  almost as if they are frightened of them not selling.
