The Golf GTi lease thread.
Discussion
So jealous hearing all you guys playing with all the toys of yours... Dealer has confirmed that mine won't be delivered until the new year...
I had a good test drive a few weeks before ordering mine, though, and I remember it feeling very nimble and fun - I didn't notice/realise it had piped noise (silly). Lots of grip and nice steering feel was what I do remember.

My deal on a standard 5Dr Golf GTi in white:
£755.02 initial rental (after dealer contribution)
£216.59 x 23 (£4981.57)
TOTAL = £5736.59 = £239.02 a month amortised
on 10k a year mileage with a 10.8p per mile excess.
All prices include VAT
Delivery by end of year.
Likewise, wanted to just get into the car as cheap as possible, hence the bog standard spec but really wish it was a darker colour.
Similarly, my first foray into leasing so hope it goes well.
Now need to look into GAP insurance.
Dealer contribution? Was this with a leasing company or a main dealer? £755.02 initial rental (after dealer contribution)

This evening's chance find is that the boot floor has too positions - when mine was delivered it was in the heightest position, I was convinced it had shrunk compared to the mK5. Now in the lower position the boot looks a respectable size.
Good shout. I knew there was a spare wheel underneath but didn't realise you could adjust the floor to increase the boot space. My find today was changing the digital gauges on the media player screen. Have now got oil temp, boost and G meter. Also this is probably me not reading the spec properly again but does the media system come with gesture control?? Whenever I go to touch the touchscreen the screen changes likes it's preparing to change function. I'm assuming the bar under the head unit is some sort of sensor for it?

Had a call from the agent - they are now telling me the delivery driven miles come of my 5000 PA allowance. I was told otherwise on the phone (was told it would be delivered on a transporter) - is this basically tough luck if I have nothing that says this in writing? Or is it worth talking to the dealer/VW Finance?

I think If previous issues are to go by then I'd fight to get this sorted.JTsp33d said:

I am not sure who to fight, there are so many parties involved. The leasing agent, VW finance, the dealer. I wouldn't mind so much but I was very very sure about asking this and confirming it would come in a transporter considering I am hundreds of miles from the dealer!I don't think I have 'arriving on delivery truck' in writing but you have to expect to be able to believe something someone says on the phone.
Annoyed.

I would talk direct to the dealer in which case..it's what I did to find out answers to any questions I had.
Thanks. I will give them until the end of the day to call me back (the agent) else I will call the dealer tomorrow. What was the case with others here from CVL? Did your delivery mileage come off your allowance?diehardbenzfan said:
