Patience payed off.. Found ED30!
« on: April 03, 2013, 04:37:37 pm »
Finally found the perfect Edition. The continuous searching and patience payed off.

Was a little bit more than I wanted to spend but we'll worth it I think.

White
3 Door
Manual
57 Plate
Xenons
Sunroof
Heated Seats
Sensors
MFSW
And the best bit.. 17k miles on the clock!

Can't wait to pick it up. Unfortunately I've got to wait until next weekend as it was registered on a private plate from new so all the paperwork has to be sent off etc.

I'll get pics up soon  :smiley:

Thanks guys. I'll try get a pic up this weekend and then some proper ones when I get her next weekend.

Yeah that's the one mate. Went up for sale Tuesday evening and 6 people were interested Wednesday morning but luckily I emailed them first so they gave me first refusal  :P

Wow - that looks great. Can see why you're so pleased - it 's hardly run-in at 17k?!

Decent options too - xenons, sunroof, etc.

It's weird - there seems to be quite a few ED30's from Cardiff - it's where I bought mine from too!

Nice car bro. Never best to go rushing into a purchase, wait and find the one you really want!  :wink:

Thanks guys  :smiley: It was owned by an older guy so defiantly needs the cobwebs blowing off and a god run in! I only use the car at weekends really so it's going to be staying very low mileage.

I think it's got pretty much every extra bar sat nav which can always be added at a later date.
