Fr 550

yes, I'm am getting mixed information from the my searching.

I think I'll ring the service department of another dealer in the morning.

Same.. The car I test drove was a Luna Grey FR550!

Edit: Probably the same one as Sean from Liverpool Seat?

Sure was! I went out in it with John

Isn't the only difference between the FR and FR550 the seats and the wheels anyway?

 

[SeanCorky]

Yeah, and the USB port

I preferred the Andromeda alloys compared to the 550 alloys, and i could get a better deal on the normal FR TDi

However the V5 only says FR, is this normal?

The V5 for my 550 just says Leon FR TDI, so I guess that is normal.

£14k seems a little steep considering the mileage.
I paid that for an ex-demonstrator and only had 2500 miles on it. I do love my 550 and the seats, I personally think, are the best part of it. They are really supportive.

I've almost got the dealer down to £13500. But its been hard work.

They wanted £300 to service and valet the car on top of the £14k.

I'm going to ring round my local dealers to see when they are getting a new facelift FR in.

I have a friend with a 10+ year old car who is willing to trade it in for me........

I do 20000 miles a year, so over five years the new one should save me £1000 in fuel, but I want to see one in the flesh first.
