i have no experience with the golf but i would say in the current climate you are in a strong position to haggle for all the discount/optional extras that your little heart desires.
get the best deal you can then play one dealer against the other.
remember it's probably easier for them to throw in factory optional extras/full tank of fuel/car mats/roof racks etc etc than to drop the price. so decide before you approach them if there's anything in particular you're after.
