Excellent choice of car Phil. A versatile car that's a pleasure carrying the family or having a hoon on track.

On the cruise control I had mine retro fitted by AWESOME in Manchester. They did fit it with the APR software which allows you to switch been the stock VW map and the APR Stage 1 variants which should take the car to approx 290-300bhp. It's a superb modification likewise I find the cruise facility brilliant especially on speed restricted sections on the motorway.

APR can also offer other functions which can also be accessed via the cruise stalk....I like their approach to their tuning philosophy using OE hardware to change the maps.

There are many others out there and the ED30 really comes alive on a stage 1 map.

Good luck and one of the best colours.

So all i need now is my numbered plaque. Will VW have already sent this to the one and only previous owner or only if they requested (which i think they wont have)?

Ordered my plaque at the end of July with VW UK, and having just spoken to them now, they say it will be with me in the next couple of weeks.

Welcome aboard the cw bandwagon. I must agree Candy white is awesome, i found mines kinda by accident, long story, and had speant months looking for the right one! Mines is candy white, dsg, lux 2, cruise, sound pack but no mfsw :ashamed: . Im on the hunt for an rcd 510 though :sad1: not having much luck. Enjoy the car, mines is totally standard and surpasses all my needs....maybe i drive like a granny? :sad1:

Hi Truckie - you lucky b*****d finding a DSG CW and with a few extras like cruise and Lux pack. When was yours registered and how many miles? What part of the country are you in?

Thinking of swapping the manual gearbox on mine to a DSG one, adding sat nav, cruise, MFSW, Lux pack and xenons.

Anyone else done this  :signLOL:

haha, nice one. the story of how i came across mines would probably make you very angry...i was drooling over it outside my work and the guy came over and said he was selling it, i had been hunting for one for ages and had actually given up! I had a seat leon fr before and this is outrageous compared :signLOL: Its a 57 plate and was bought from specialist cars in aberdeen...im just outside edinburgh myself, its got 15000 miles on now and is plaque number 1304 :happy2:

Glad you found your candy ED 30 MR Porker, its always better to wait like you did until the colour you are yearning for comes along.

Thanks for all your comments chaps.  :happy2:

I must say, from joining this forum as a non-mk5 owner to now getting my Ed30 has been great. I find the speed, helpfulness and friendliness of replies to be really really top drawer. You all deserve a (VW) medal  :drinking:

This must be the very best (and i've been on a fair few) forum i've come across!

Ok, now who wants to sell me their RNS510 Sat Nav unit for £50!!!!!

Cheers - Phil

There are a couple of reasons why this place works well compared to most. A few members disagree with it and think our inexperience shows but thats just down to it not suiting there personal needs. Mostly this forums works well because all our members are respectful to each other and indeed other makes of cars apart from Vauxhalls and fords which is correct  :laugh:
Long may it continue.  :drinking:

My V5 arrived today from the DVLA so i'm now officially the car's 2nd owner.

I shall now endeavour to ring VW Customer (lack of) Services and try to obtain my number plaque!

His car is Candy White, he's very good with Photoshop and his car isnt an Edition30, but one of the nicest modified Standard GTi's on here  :happy2:
