Did someone say minty fresh?







I should really sell it, but it's such a good car I can't bring myself to it

Oh, and I'd price mine the same as this one: http://www.pistonheads.com/classifieds/used-cars/volkswagen/golf-gti-mk5-mk6/volkswagen-golf-mk5-gti-edition30-t-230-2008/1136587

It took me over a year to find a Candy White Editon 30, with Xenons, Rear Tints, Manual and that had been properly looked after, serviced correctly etc

IIRC your car is on Eibachs, I had them fitted for a week but couldn't stand the ride nor the stance. Although your car looks good   :smiley:

Correct. I love the rude height and didn't think it affected the ride at all. Everyone's different though.

Put it this way, you won't want SMG after you've tried DSG. :grin:

Worlds apart :happy2:



Yeah SMG was awful in auto mode, only ever used it in manual and it was great fun and made the car feel more special. The only downside I felt was that I was tempted to play with the gears for the sake of it just because it was fun   :grin:
Probably would have got used to it but the car wasn't mine so only had it for a couple of months.

I realise DSG is meant to be really good in auto mode as well as quicker and smoother than SMG in manual so I'm keen to have a shot of one to decide if its worth the premium.

Too true you don't see many on the road.

However I remember my last time at inters, pretty much every ed30 on display was candy white :signLOL:

Ok, all the Candy White (Domestic appliance white) boys have had there say, but what about prices in general for the non 'victims of fashion', ED30 owners?  :evilgrin:

Wasn't so long ago you couldn't give a white car away, lol.




**Edited to add my son had a new MK6 GTI in white. I have to say it looked ok, but other colours are available!

Absolutely, white cars used to be a big no no, for resale value didn't they... I reckon it's a lot to do with Apple products making white shiny things fashionable.

I do esp. like white GTI's with black rims and black wingmirrors
