i would look closely for stone chips on the front section of the bonnet, and front splitter , shouldnt be excessive for a low mileage car.

May give you ammo to either knock the price down or get them to send you a close up photo via email to get an idea. That and Pics of all the alloys :happy2:

Ta for all the welcomes guys!

Found out the Ed30 has Centre Armrest, rear parking sensors and the heat/sun reflecting glass?? Quite pleased really as I didn't think it had any extras at all!

Hope to be making the trip to get it late this coming week so need to hurry and get a RNS510 sorted now!  :grin:

Looking good.

You're right Tornado Red is a superb colour.

It looks really shiny in the pics - hope it's as nice in the flesh.

Getting excited now - tomorrow's the day.

Just got to deal with the 240 mile drive and then hope that the car is in the condition I hope it is!

With a bit of luck I'll be a Tornado Red Ed30 owner at lunchtime  :happy2:

At the garage now - looks lovely - only 1 stone chip (tiny) - has rear parking sensors, mfsw, centre armrest with iPod connection - very pleased.

Pics tonight when I get home - 250 miles later!

Well the journey home was much more fun  :grin:

Car is fantastic to drive - really nice to get back in a swift petrol motor again.  Golf feels much more responsive than my Focus ST I had a year or so back and the DSG is just as good as I remember it from my 55 plate.

Not had time to take more than one pic - too busy driving - but here is the one I took at the dealers (only on an iphone I'm afraid but you get the idea!)



Got home and my hallway contains a box of cleaning goodies and some of those rear privacy shades to fit - just waiting for delivery of my RNS510 now and then its saving time for a remap and some springs  :happy2:
