Yes, you still get the grant.

DriveTheDeal and CarWow claim the base price for Family Pro is £34,525. VW website states it is £33,995. DTD claim they are correct. Interesting! times. If DTD is correct I cannot see the Pro model lasting for long. Update: VW chat states list is £33,995. Marshall Volkswagen St Albans stated list is...

As suspected DTD have reported incorrect prices. Family Pro is clearly wrong.
The difference between Pro and Pro Performance is dropping as is Life to Family.

Some dealers order stock cars and allocate them to buyers. They often make changes to the original order for the buyer's spec.
May be this way their order numbers are lower.

Try calling your local TPS - https://tps.trade/ Much cheaper than through a dealer, but still Genuine VW parts as they are part of VW. (They are officially trade only but I buy all the time over the counter) Part number is 10a853677 My local TPS refused to let me buy an EGR for a Golf. I ended up d...

It does seem a bit strange that they aren't taken into account. If I were VW I would find a way to make a Family Pro to a Family Pro Performance via an optional add on to allow them to increase the price as they wished and allow a grant to be claimed. Effectively scrap Family Pro Performance and ch...

Have the new prices been released? They do have a decision to make around the two given how close the performance is to the grant cut off. Assume if you get the Family Pro Performance with options then you still currently get the grant. Or does it depend on what the options are? The prices are on D...

What are the odds the Pro version will be discontinued soon given the price difference between Family Pro and Family Pro Performance is just £470 from Dec 1st? This is a big increase for the Pro. List prices from DrivetheDeal as published today for 1st Dec 2021: 107KW Life Pro 58kWh 5dr Auto £31,805...

Thanks for clearing that up for us, not that anyone asked or cares

Do people care you think there there should be a choice?

You passive-aggressive comments are getting more frequent.

Another off the point ramble about a subject nothing to do with id3

The pot calling the kettle black. Your comment is off topic!

Pretty sure my kids would be all stringy. Like I said, it’s a choice thing. Vegans believe there should not be a choice. I cannot understand why some meat eaters believe it is wrong to eat a dog or a horse (or even dead humans). I am a vegetarian and not a vegan and my view has now changed. I think...

I'm also trying to work out which bits of the seat are vegan leather. Vegans have a perfect right to choose non-animal products and I'll go to the wall to defend their choice, but I don't know why we all have to suffer by default 😂 I was scarred - literally - by sunshine on the plastic seats in the...

Well, I wonder why VW have confirmed build dates when they are subject to change. Mine has been pushed back to week 49.
If it gets pushed a few weeks further back may be I will receive a MY22.5 model.
A March 1st collection seems more unlikely now.

I wonder what the last build week for 2021 is.

Yes I wasn’t meaning to suggest that the £1750 would be achieved just that dealers would discount as necessary. There’s clearly no need for VW to discount to sell ID.3’s, so discount will decide dealer or broker selection. Market forces, y’all. I have not seen any additional dealer discounts to com...

They might've just done that- finance calculator states 4.9%, wasn't it about 6.2% previously? It was 4.7% when I ordered. So, the interest rate is now higher and price effectively £1750 higher. DTD have not increased their discount, hence you can assume the car is now £1750 more expensive. DTD eve...

Are people really willing to order now with an effective £1750 price increase due to the withdrawal of the finance deposit contribution? Perhaps, it will return soon.

It may cost them in the long run when those Tesco chargers get busier and you've less chance of nabbing one, the £350 charger grant is likely to be long gone by then. What are the odds when the £350 grant goes the price of an install will not increase by £350? Charger prices may reduce in the long ...

If someone is openly offering free charging with no strings, I do not see how this is sponging. If it is convenient, it would be silly not to take up the offer. Are people spongers for using O2 Priorities for free Cafe Nero drinks or Greggs? What about accepting a discount on an ID.3? How about char...
