This initally does not put me off the car but makes me wonder how much knowledge the owner has of this car.

I have just missed out on a nice clean looking example being sold at REV IT UP UK

It sounds to me like the owner is wary of giving the impression the car's been driven hard. Make of that what you will.

Revitup.. That name rings a bell. Not sure why.

Don't get in a rush to buy.

I think that's the exact reason he told me, so for me not to think that it's bounced off the rev limiter once or twice.

Is the ed30 worth the extra £2-3k over the gti?????

It depends if you fancy upwards of 350bhp in the future, or if 280bhp is enough...

The big difference between the ed30 and standard GTI is the turbo. K04 and K03 respectively.

The ed30 does come with a few nice touches like the rear lights, interior, and the fact it's a limited edition makes it more desirable.

My advice; if you can stretch to an ed30, do it. In a few years they will be much easier to sell than a normal GTI. And if you get that tuning itch, the bigger turbo gives them loads more potential.
