all GTIs come with leather these days, Ed35 on continent comes with check cloth, the superb looking Ed35 trim or leather, in the UK its leather only, if you spec up a GTI with similar options to the Ed35 you are looking at similar money, in reality car prices have gone u in last 3 years having seen what my rocco would be in GT trim i'd be £4k up on the list three years ago  :happy2:

Lol, it's not a golf forum! I think the ed35 looks nice, and seems well priced with its rivals, would I buy one? No, but I wouldn't spend that sort of money on any fwd hot hatch.

It's more the repeated bollocks about true petrolheadism. The general consensus is if it isn't RWD, has 300bhp/tonne and a manual 'box then it's not worthy. It's a bit tiresome really.

I get you but to be fair that is true, hot hatches are a compromise, quick, handle well and can get kids in etc... Don't get me wrong I obviously love em, but none are amazing to drive, and I'm sure most gti owners have bought there cars as a compromise, all be it a good one :happy2:

I totally agree, but it's not always relevant that you can get an early 996 GT3 for the same money :signLOL:

There seems to be a hang up on a particular set of criteria that a car must meet to even be mentioned on the site, yet alone reviewed, yet this seems to come from the cavemen inhabiting the forum, not the people running the site.

Anyway, we digress.

Some people adopt a persona on forums, to 'fit in'. Thankfully only happens on here to a very small degree, you know the kind of "I'd rather walk than drive a <insert non-VAG car> clowns. Would you really?? or anti-Police threads are another favourite of mine. Big heroics, not.

The tits on PHs are the ones shouting loudest trying to be noticed and gain some sort of acceptance from the elders by spouting what they think they want to hear. Funny things forums, they turn rational people into idiots and give idiots a voice.

Mmm, tempted in white with 19s.  Given that it's not a limited edition, wonder what deals can be had?  Maybe best to wait until Spring to allow the initial must have at any cost orders to have been processed!
