To celebrate the launch of the 142 registration plate Volkswagen ambassador Rosanna Davison was on hand to launch Volkswagen’s range of July sales offers.

For the month of July all Volkswagen models will come with celebration bonuses of up to €1,500 from Volkswagen Ireland. The Volkswagen Golf, Beetle and Scirocco will come with a bonus of €1,000 and the Tiguan, Passat, CC and Touran will come with a bonus of €1,500. As the Celebration Bonus is completely separate to any deals/discounts offered by Volkswagen dealers, the money can be used as a contribution towards deposit, a boost to the trade in value offered or as cash back.

Commenting on the offer, Paul O’Sullivan, Head of Marketing, Volkswagen Passenger Cars said: “Volkswagen has had a really strong start to the year and we have a lot to celebrate with the Volkswagen Golf, Ireland’s favourite car, turning 40 this year. We’d like to thank our customers by making it even easier to get into a new Volkswagen by offering even better value in the form of celebration bonuses or very special offers.”

As the 142 plate approaches Volkswagen remains the number one car brand in Ireland year to date and the Golf retains its title as the bestselling car. As of the end of May Volkswagen hold a 12.9% market share with the Golf accounting for almost 5% (4.88%) of all new car sales.

Acquiring a new Volkswagen is easier thanks to hugely competitive finance rates from Volkswagen Bank. Volkswagen bank offers 3.9% APR as well as great offers on PCP with 0% PCP on the new Polo, Golf SV and up! This means motorists can get into an up! for as little as €99 per month and a new Polo for just €142 a month.
