Good deal for a new T6.1 ?

[Rosscopecotrain]

Does this seem like a good deal ? I know car / van prices are all over the place at the moment and the delivery times on new vans are ridiculous.


T28 150bhp DSG Highline
Ravenna blue
Led headlights / taillights
powered tailgate
heated seats
Glazed tailgate
front and passenger captains chairs

delivery mileage , pre reg.

garage is asking 39k inc Vat

thanks in advance

Run the same spec through autoebid for comparison.. seems a bit high.. i got 4M DSG with diff lock and lots of extras for about that price.

 

[Rosscopecotrain]

Thanks , I’ll take a look.

From where

That’s a good price. Is it available now , if not what is the waiting time ?
I checked vws approved used website , autotrader and ebay and there is nothing similar in spec and price to the one i mentioned above. Even vans with lower spec and 10k miles are more expensive.

Bognor Motors
"Oli" on this forum

TBH Autoebid came close at £34,500

No it's not a stock vehicle
lt's a factory order so estimated March 2022

Some silly prices on VW Approved Used, similar to current prices for the Suzuki Jimny which is being sold at £5-6,000 over list (and people are paying it)

You'll pay a premium for a stock vehicle at the moment, because of the nine month waiting list on factory orders. l was looking at a 2020 Kombi at £36,000 which seemed great until l realised it was +VAT!

 

[Firthster]

is that a kombi?

Panel van.

As above.

Bognor Motors were the best price. Just need to sort out how l am going to pay for it now, and l can get my order in.

Reading this I’m thinking buying second hand isn’t a good move?

Mine too ! I don’t want to have to wait 9 months for a new vehicle but then I don’t like the thought of paying too much a for a used vehicle (although the one I’m looking at is delivery miles pre reg so basically new. )

one good thing is that I’m getting 2k more for my trade in than I paid for it last year.

 

[Firthster]

That is true with px as they have gone up as well,
I really don’t know what to do.
I’ve used my budget upped it again and now I’m looking at blowing the budget.

I would only buy a used T6 right now if I was desperate for a van.

[Firthster]

Not desperate
But I’ve been saying I’m having one for years,
So now I’m being impulsive probably

If you’ve already waited years, I would be tempted to hang on another year or so. Especially so if you’re after a camper, there’s going to be a huge glut of those on the market as soon as foreign holidays become feasible again.

I think you could well be right,
Swb kombi dsg is the only thing I’m after.
I’m now looking at nearly new that don’t seem expensive

Sell you mine £30k

 

[Firthster]

I’ve got a px unfortunately

 

[Scruffy]

Sell you mine £30k

No, you can have mine.......hmmmmmmmm.......25k........121 thousand on the clock though. Only kidding on the price, or am I? I bet I could get not far of that right now, prices are nuts. I just hope they are still nuts when I finally sell mine.
