My Golf R arrives in UK

[Gio G]

Hi all,

Got confirmation today that my R has arrived @ the dealers, which is nearly 1 month before estimated!

My PCH deal is a 6 + 23 @ £360 a month for 10k per year, fully maintained, in case anyone was wondering.

It is a 5 door, DSG, Vienna Leather, poverty nav. So probably expensive given the new wave of deals.

Some advice please....

I want to be put my cherished plate on the car. Given the car has arrived, what is to stop the dealer letting me do a straight transfer on the V317 form? As opposed to putting on retention, naming the leasing company as the nominee and then having to send it off again to the dealer.

Any experience of anyone doing this in practice? I am a novice at this leasing game..

Thanks G

Hi mate,

From what I've ascertained from the lady dealing with my lease, you have to put them as a nominee for the plate, and then get it sorted, and thus pay them a fee for allowing the plate on the car, towards the end of the lease, I believe roughly a month prior to the car going back you need to swap it off there once again. Hope it helps.
