Before everyone gets to excited, lets just keep posts that are relevant to finding out what is going on here. I think it is fair to say that SLO3 Joe appears to be ignorant of what an Edition 30 properly looks like or he has the largest brass neck in the world, me thinks the former is correct.
Joe needs to first find out if it is even an Edition 30 or a standard GTI. If it is an Edition 30 he either has to adjust his advert and state what bits are not correct or turn the car back to a proper edition 30. I am not saying anyone is, but i dont see any point at having a laugh at his expense or telling him his price is to much, he clearly doesn't realise it has issues.

I have no idea how it cannot be an edition 30, as people have said people like the monzas more over the BBS alloys which is fair enough. It could even be the same with the seats, some people just don't like leather seats.
The fact it has a golf badge on back means nothing.. Anyone could stick a V8 badge on it, doesn't mean it's not an edition 30 because of it.
The front grill just has the edition part under the GTi missing, doesn't mean it's not an edition.
After all the trash talk on this thread I'm surprised I've even had any interest in it at all. But funny enough I have! Even the people interested have said they prefer the monzas to the BBS alloys.
If you dead certain it's not an edition, spend the money to hpi it. You'll soon see that your ignorance has cost you money, just because you think you know best..
