Very quick question

I am about to order a new Rocco and my question is this...
I have been offered a 10% discount off list price for a GT 170 DSG loaded with some extras - is this good, normal, poor?
Thanks for your views and experiences

Any discount is good in my opinion, you could of course push for more :-)
If its a high spec then I'd be happy.

So, have done the deal...got to a smidge under 12% discount with free mats - they also wore the charge for Candy white paint which has just come in as a cost option!!
GT spec 170 DSG, Nav, Leather, Bi Xenons, Folding Mirrors, Cruise, Parking Sensors, Mats, 3 years servicing - OTR for £25,600
Collection date estimated mid January

Good spec level and the 3 year free service is a good thing to have on top. I assume your happy with the overall deal :-)

Very pleased.
If I include the £1k VW finance contribution, that makes it nigh on a £5k discount off list price -
My plan is to buy on PCP and then after 3 months settle the agreement so as to maximise the dealer contribution and minimise interest

Like your thinking, good saving indeed then. Nice little shopping trip :-)

What's the penalty for settling after 3 months?

No penalty. You can even pay off chunks through the term of an agreement and ask them to reduce the payments etc. PcP Finance is much more flexible these days. :-)

Thanks for that. I'm looking at getting a new Roc soon and the £1000 from VW is tempting but a PCP deal would cost me about £3000 in interest more than a straight cash deal.
