    Anyone thinking of going over to the Frankfurt show in September? Last time I checked return flights only €50 for a day trip.

    a trip in september may be an option, it would be good to see it before committing to the non refundable part of the order.

    will there be any chance of a test drive? or is that the trade off with a good price high spec launch edition...

    Thanks for getting this started. Could be interesting to see how dealers may differ going forward.

    I think you get a trade off. Get the 1st edition and pay a "cheap" price for the same kit but you take the car.

    Sorry done more reading, no test drives. If you want test drive wait till car is out

    once you order with VW dealer then you take the car, you sign contract. Anytime up till then you can cancel and get 1k back

    What is impressive is the range of VW dealers signed up for electric cars. Not so long ago it was Liffey Valley and Blackwater Motors. No other dealer. Huge investment by VW Ireland and dealers

    So reserving now, do you get a choice or guarantee on anything, e.g. I'd like a ID.3 1st Max

    Booked flights for Monday 16th September, coming back early 17th. Under €50.
    15 minutes in a taxi to Arena. Will probably have 8 hours there to have a good look what's going on.
    Lots of pictures will be incoming anyway. ðŸ˜ðŸ˜

    Normally they have release days....but maybe VW will do one big release with the Golf and the ID.3....


    Might be worth trying to check with paddy on here to see if he knows. Would be terrible to fly over and miss the VW launch.

    Not sure what you mean? I should post that Ireland will only have one spec based on the Q&A on the website. UK going the same route. We don't know what will be included in that spec till September


    The 1k you pay now is to get the option to buy the car. If in September you dont like the spec or price etc, you get the 1k back after 7 days
