Please tell me which dealer you had your last VW from and I will contact them and ask if they still can offer a discount, I am willing to travel quite far to collect a new car if it saves money. None of the five VW dealers I contracted today would give a discount off optional extras or the upfront payment. I know that you can get discounts as I did with my last Volvo a few years ago but really struggling to find a VW dealer to offer any discount now.
