Mk5 Edition 30 Prices

[George]

Did someone say minty fresh?







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

[George]

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

Nope, bought mine from a VW dealer in Stockport

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

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.

Worlds apart

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  
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

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?  

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
