Afternoon y'all
« on: January 02, 2010, 12:26:16 pm »
Just joined up as I'm on the lookout for an Edition 30 at the moment - feel it's time to move on to something a bit bigger and more comfy than the 182 Trophy but don't want to lose the performance and fun factor etc.

I've been keeping an eye on this one for sale at Leeds Volkswagen which is exactly what I'm after (Candy White 5dr); which has come down by £2000 in the last month:

http://www.sytner.co.uk/volkswagen/leeds/used-cars/volkswagen-golf-hatchback-special-eds--76893.aspx?st=Vehicle&vhl=-76893

Any advice on things to look out for, running costs etc would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers,

Rhodri

Cheers all, looking at other ED30s on PH, Autotrader etc that seems a good price; there's a 3dr in the For Sale section here with almost double the mileage for £400 more....

I'll also be looking to p/x my Trophy as I can't be arsed with the hassle of a Private sale!

Hi and welcome,  :driver:

That ED30 looks fine, MFSW to boot although not many other options fintted to it from what I can see on the picture. Best colour too :happy2:

Don't worry about the RNS510 (Sat Nav) you can always add this later (MORTYGTTDI is selling them....linky

Cruise control can also be retro fitted too.

Good luck.

I have, it's number 399/500 and I've also loved every second of ownership, the handling is unreal and it's capable of embarrassing significantly more expensive cars! Shame to get rid of it really but needs must!

Cheers for that, I noticed that one on Autotrader but for some reason I wasn't sure if it is an ED30 or a standard GTI with BBS alloys - something just doesn't look right with it in the pictures (or maybe it's just me).
