Windrush Volkswagen Customer Information

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 you find it useful.

Time-to-time return offer

From time-to-time and by way of a customer incentive we may offer a 5-day full return offer but this will always be detailed on the order. This offer is generally during times when a test-drive is not possible due to Government restrictions. There are a few terms that are applied as follows:

• The vehicle must be returned in the same condition and not be damaged in any way
• There is an absolute limit of 200 miles being covered since taking delivery – the right to return is void beyond 200 miles of usage
• A full refund can only be made once you hand back the registration document for the car to us
• You will be sent any refundable road tax directly from the DVLC
• We will assist in the cancelation of any finance agreements put in place

Delivery options

We sincerely believe that a better quality of handover experience is available when collecting your new car in person from our showrooms. We can take as long as you wish in a great environment for you to understand your new car and aftersales requirements.
 
However, if you require home delivery, it will be our pleasure to arrange this for distances above 20 miles. The current charge is £2.00 (inc VAT) per mile. We can offer delivery Monday to Saturday, normally at a time to fit around you between 10am and 4pm. We use professional handover delivery drivers who work under strict driving limitations to ensure a positive delivery experience. We may also use a car transporter subject to availability. To assist in delivering a comprehensive home delivery experience your customer account manager will send you a personalised video, introducing your new car and the important areas of note.

Payment options

Debit and credit card payments can be accepted up to a maximum of £1,000 for deposit purposes only. Please note transferred funds will need to be received by the preceding Friday for weekend and Monday collections and the day before for weekday collections.

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic we can no longer accept or handle cash. Personal cheques, bankers or building society cheques cannot be taken as part or full payment.

Balance of payments by direct transfer only to:

National Westminster Bank, Milton Keynes
Account: 82218323 for Slough purchases
Account: 82231885 for Maidenhead purchases
Sort Code: 60 14 55 is the same for either branch

Taxing your vehicle

Taxing of your new vehicle will take place at delivery. It is a DVLA requirement to ensure that your new car is registered by you to the address that you require and to ensure that you receive future renewal reminders correctly. Payment on the day can be made with any recognised credit or debit card. A complimentary 5 days’ free insurance cover can be obtained from Volkswagen Insurance by calling 0345 300 6119 and quoting dealer code 349 Slough or 401 Maidenhead. If you hold a road fund licence exemption certificate, please ensure this is given to us.

If you have a part-exchange

If you are part-exchanging your vehicle, we will require the following:

• Vehicle registration document
• Current MOT certificate (if applicable)
• All service history and supporting invoices. Electronic service histories should be printed out and handed over on the day
• Please bring both sets of keys

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' time…

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 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 at 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 email useful service booking reminders.

We will also advise you of any issues discovered during a free Visual Health Inspection of your vehicle to make you aware of any faults or urgent maintenance required.
