Ye you guys should definitely wait for the reasons given.
It would be ‘nice’ to have 18 plate just to have the current plate for 6 months rather than it be superseded after 4 weeks but not too bothered. Not going to wait a whole month just so others can see my car and think ‘nice that’s brand...
Order status history for mine, currently at the dealer as of Saturday
I’d like some opinions, should I pick up ASAP (could take another week), OR wait 4 weeks for 18 plate.
Ps. I’m leasing for 2 years...
Very. Got lucky I guess. dealer said weeks ago (before it stared prep) that it’s due in for collection week starting 29th. So seem to be sticking to that timeframe. I’m 99% sure it’s on that boat as status 39 and the only other boat from emden to Tyne is City of Barcelona and that hasn’t...
If anyone’s car has been at emden this week and heading to Tyne port, mine got to emden Thursday and is already on the boat arriving to Tyne this evening. Only 2 days at emden! Boat is Viking Constanza.
Just in case anyone’s car got to emden this week and going to Tyne, mine got to Emden on Thursday and is already on Viking Constanza heading for tyne. Only at emden for 2 days!
I too am leasing and due to collect start of feb. No value for us leasers in an 18 plate apart from knowing it’s the latest plate (for 6 months anyway). It would be nice though just for the privilege :)
Not sure I can carry on driving my 09 1.4 Golf another month knowing the S4 is waiting for me.
Mines currently at ‘Assembly’ since Friday. Had original estimated collection date of around 16th Feb which was bought forward to 29th jan once build date was confirmed. Bitter sweet as I want the car ASAP but also had the 18 plate in mind. May miss it by a few weeks so not sure whether to wait...
Just got a quote through carwow on exactly the same car (£650 of extras and 15k miles pa). So the total OTR price was 6k less at £40k through carwow
With same deposit as the lease (£3200), but over 49 months it came to £463 pm!!!
To get to £360pm like the lease you need to put in nearly £8...
That’s not bad then. I might have a look although I’d be surprised if it worked out cheaper than the lease deal I got. So can I get prices back from Carwow then get a PCP quote from the dealer online, as I won’t make it to a dealer in person for a few weeks?
I went to Audi last weekend and got a PCP quote. £5k down and £440pm over 48 months. With dealer contribution of £3250, but no options on the car. And 10k mileage pa. He said we could go halves on the cost of the options.
Personal lease was a no brainer for me.
Personal lease.
I’d love to have all the options on the car but have a monthly budget, and only driving the car for 2yrs it doesn’t make financial sense as there’s no residual value at the end.
Looks like this needs reviving...
