X 8 GAJ Steel Grey Edition 30

[Gaj0801]

Hi there Ladies and Gents,

Im not new to the forum as ive owned a MK5 Golf GTI for the last 4 years but never had a chance to make a build thread and by the time i had done a hell of a lot of things it just seemed long to start one.

When i first got my LC9Z Black GTI Manual back in Oct 2011:



And a few more pics of her in the years ive owned her:













In short she was completely standard when i bought her from a lady who owned this car from brand new and i pretty much did a hell of alot of oem+ cosmetic touches,handling and performance mods including major mods such as Quaife Lsd and ko4 conversion running AMD Stage 2+ software.

And now....i have just taken ownership of my new lovely Steel Grey Edition 30 Manual once again which is completely stock for now  in place of my lovely GTI which is gone now :( but not forgotten :



Will get some more pics up and update my plans for the new lady soon :p

Very nice ED30 there - did you go for manual or DSG? Your old GTI sounds as though it was very well sorted indeed!

Cheers bud  ...i have updated the thread now :)..my old GTI was manual and due to me having only recently have had a 5,000 miles TT Spec manual box built up with a Quaife LSD By Alex at AKS Tuning i kept the box and decided to go for a Manual ED30 so i can chuck it on the ED30 once i get the chance.

Although DSG was very tempting  i do love my manual boxes and stuck to manual...

Great buy in a lovely colour.

You know what to do with it, so I'm expecting to see it "grow" strong and steadily soon.
