I see there is a white CSS for sale at VW main dealer. Rare car but it must be the first Golf GTI in history to be selling for a premium.

Yes and to be fair with all the trick bits, aluminium sub frame, forged engine with 330 PS when dynod by Sport Auto, alcantara all over the place, special exhaust, trick tyres, and only 150 RHD you could argue VW sold this car at a discount new bit like Porsche does with GT cars. Probably much rarer than good condition Mk1s too. One of the quickest cars I have driven cross country. The confidence it gives you is amazing. Can't wait to try one on track.

There are about 20 for sale at the moment. Lowest is asking £38800. Still further to fall I hope as I am after a black one but can't bring myself to pay overs for a two seat Golf...
You should just go buy the cheapest one. Doubt delivery miles cars will ever be below list. Think list was £35k.

True. In no rush. And new model with DCC and rumoured performance pack is going to be an interesting package too - so I was told today. Albeit no S, more practical for my needs.

Wow this one at VW dealer just knocked £8000 off - very close to list from a maindealer

Far from me advising you how to buy a car but the key thing to look at is depreciation. Even at £37k this CSS is going to depreciate far less than a PP model. So long run even a CSS at
£3k over list is a better bet than a cooking GTI if you can put up with stripped out lw 2 seater
