New Edition 30 Owner

Hello all
Been on here a while but never got round to posting up.
Recently got my hands on Edition 30 number 127, in black 5 door
Absolutely love it, makes me smile every time I jump in!
Looking forward to looking through posts for some valuable advice and ideas.
Got my eyes on revo stage 1 to get to 300!!

Welcome along!  :drinking:

She looks a beauty, Pescara's look really good, not usually a fan of black on black cars but look great on your Eddy!  :notworthy:

IIRC REVO "usually" do a 20% off discount in December (they have done the last couple of years) so if you can wait a couple of weeks, you can save £100 or so.

 :happy2:

Cheers.
Wheels actually a dark shade of anthracite just look black from a distance, bit darker than I expected but love them now.

Calipers need repainting next. And also thinking of the eibach sport lines for a nice little drop.

Cheers for the info on revo! Have to wait and see.

Cheers. Got her from Norwich just up the road from me.

That's her with 2 coats of AG Ultra Deep shine and topped up with AG HD Wax, love the finish with these products.

Very nice and welcome from another Edition30 owner near Norwich  :happy2:

Was thinking of getting my wheels powder coated, did you get them done locally, looks like a good finish.

Cannot recommend BA wheels in Norwich enough!!

Had the missus's rims on her scirocco powder coated there and now mine on the Edition 30.

Absolutely perfect and very reasonable price.

You have any mods?

Had mine booked in with these guys a few weeks ago but had to cancel, thanks for the recommendation, will certainly re-book when ready.

No performance mods as prefer to keep standard but have retro-fitted RNS, MDI, Cruise and MFSW buttons this year, all great additions  :smiley:

Is yours manual or DSG?  Mines DSG and have to say would be hard pushed to go back to manual now!

Yes make sure to rebook.

They sound great additions too making the car complete.

Mine is manual, how do you find the DSG?

I just love the involvement if a manual.

welcome, nice looking car..

just out of interest, did you stick the extra edition 30 badge on the front grill yourself?
i bought myself an extra one to do the same but haven't got round to it yet, did you just stick it straight onto the grill below the gti badge? did it stick ok?

Love the powder coated wheels! If you don't mind me asking, in what region did they cost?
