T6 Price Increases

[Davenjo]

I had an email from Danbury earlier today suggesting that VW UK are putting prices up with effect from 1st December and that the impact could be up to £3000 on your "Dream Campervan" - sounds like one heck of an increase if true.

Either way, if anyone is on the verge of ordering a new T6 it might be prudent to have another look this weekend!

I genuinely think our Cali was a bit of bargain.

Does not sound like they do what VW do and let you order before the date and honour it after

Purpose of their email was to get people to order ahead of the 1st and lock the price in.

If its 3% then I would say its acceptable to account for inflation, £ to euro, etc.. I wonder how Danbury got this to, up to, £3000 increase? A fully loaded camper with all conceivable extras would max out at around £55-£60k so, even if applying the uplift to the base vehicle, extras and everything else in the conversion, the increase would be less than £2k ??

I worked out on my high spec kombi it would have been about £900 more with the increase .
I don't knew how danbys have got that figure ,surely they start with a pannel van with a few extras .

Seems like marketing speak, the key words being 'could be up to' ....

It could be vw uping the price so they can offer a bigger discount to match other manufacturers. It always good to get a big discount
