I'm sorry but I don't see peoples point here .... I would like more plaques for my car for a few reasons. One I get sentimental about my cars, I have absolutely no intention what so ever about selling my edition 30 just like the Mk1 GTi I inherited from my grandmother who in turn bought that new. For the same reason I have began buying all the Edition 30 specific things such as an additional steering wheel, gearknob, handbrake gaitor, Pescara's etc etc that will wear out - you may call me sad but in 20 years time - it will be something, all VW lovers - you can't beat those totally stock uber mint original Mk1's with 50k on the clock etc etc. My ED30 for the time being is my daily driver, but there will come a time when that is no longer the case, the PC will come out for paint correction and it'll stay in the garage as solely a dry weather weekend warrior - like my MK1. For that reason I am very analy retentative about it, but accept that it will age and wear as all things do ... That is why I want a duplicate plaque, if this one wears, scratches, falls off etc etc etc where am I going to get another one in 15 years time ? From a guy who has been subcontracted by VW (all be it a badge / livery specialist) - no dis respect to him or anything ... but will his business be there in 15 years to get another one ? It's not so that I can stick them all over the car - sell them on eBay - misrepresent other cars - no ! just for me, because I am a sad, anally retentive Edition 30 owner who intends to keep the car as long as it lasts and as such want a duplicate in case anything happens to it. I bought the ED30 as I have always had VW Golf GTi's since I was 17 - and feel I understand what the "GTi" is ... I bought the ED30 as it was the culmination of many things that the MK4 25th Anniversary was not - it seemed right - I bought it because it was a "special car" - not because it had 30bhp more - just for the history.
Why is the notion that people want a duplicate plaque attracting so much attention ?
