Thank you for buying your new Volkswagen from Windrush. We greatly appreciate your custom and we will do as much as possible to ensure everything is straightforward and enjoyable up to the point of delivery and beyond. We will keep you updated with your Volkswagen's servicing requirements and future opportunities for what will hopefully be your next Volkswagen from Windrush.
Our main priority is to deliver the highest levels of customer service and to make your purchase an enjoyable experience. Once you have taken delivery of your car, Volkswagen will contact you to ensure that we have delivered on our promise. However, if at any point you have any questions or concerns, please email us at windrush@windrush.co.uk and our management team will respond promptly.
We have listed some of the information that you will need ahead of delivery below plus a little about what happens after – we hope that you find it useful.
In the event of a 'no-deal Brexit’, vehicles arriving in the UK may be subject to new import duties/tariffs. It is therefore prudent that we clarify the scenarios that may apply for such an event. Volkswagen have the right to amend the pricing of your new Volkswagen for any added import duties or tariffs that might be applied. In the event of this happening it could apply to any order placed on or after 1st February 2019. The aforementioned scenarios could apply to Retail and Motability sales.
Thank you again for choosing Windrush.

We will remind you along the way
Once you have taken delivery of your new Volkswagen from Windrush we will continue to stay in touch to guide you through the ownership experience over the lifetime of your vehicle. We are always here to help you with any questions you may have. Below are some details on how we aim to keep you informed.
In 24 hours…
We will be in touch with you to check that you were extremely satisfied with your experience with Windrush and to answer any initial questions that you may have since you left the showroom.
In 11 months…
Nearly a year has gone past since taking delivery of your car. We will be in touch with you to check that you’re still enjoying it and to answer any questions that may have arisen in the last 11 months. In approximately seven months, there will also be a reminder that we’ll be calling you to do an account review.
In 12-23 months’ time…
Within this period, we’ll be constantly monitoring your agreement and we will contact you regarding your Plan.
You will be invited in for an account review with one of our showroom managers. At this stage we can advise you when you’ll get the best value upgrade on a brand new Volkswagen. That’s because the equity in your car will be at the peak of its value, so you may be surprised what you can get.
Servicing and maintenance
To ensure your car is kept in tip-top condition and, to maintain its value and integrity, we will send you the occasional reminder regarding servicing and maintenance that is due on your vehicle.
Once your car is booked in with us, we also email you useful service booking reminders.
We will also advise you of any issues discovered during a free Visual Health Inspection on your vehicle to make you aware of any faults or urgent maintenance required.
