I would go for the r32 personally maybe biased as I have one and as for the exhaust it's all down to preference as you have non res and res but you could get someone to swap their standard exhaust and cash your way for the one on it and if it has the cloth bucket r seats then these are rare to find so would be worth good money if you wanted to swap them over

Cheers for everyones comments but have test drove the ED30 and now stuck a deposit down to mark it as sold.

I have noticed the left side of front bumper looked loke it was not fastened in so they are sorting that.

Also the drivers side wing mirror indicator plastic section had a slight crack so they are checking that. Does anyone know if this piece can be replaced or would it have to be the while wing mirror.

Managed to get 12 months warranty and a tank of fuel chucked in so that is not bad for my terrible negotiating skills :)

Took some more photos so will upload when get a chance

Cheers

The pics they had on the website didnt do it justice. In the flesh the wheels are not bad but will still probably change and the Interior is immaculate  :happy2:

Probably a stupid question but how do you find out what number your ED30 is and I have heard of these plaques you can get that VW did not supply as standard

congrats on the purchase mate, enjoy. Re the number of the Ed I think it's a case of ringing VW UK and giving them details of the (your) car and VW should provide you with build number and the plate if it has not been issued previously.
I think that's correct.

Nice one, will give them a ring if complete on purchase. If the plate has been issued previously is there anyway of getting a replacement?

I'm not totally sure how you'll get a plate if it's already been issued, I'd suspect you'll have to get one made up

No multi function buttons? You have a highline dash I see with paddle buttons. I may be wrong but I thought the Multi function wheel would be fitted with the other two options? Maybe worth asking? The boot sticker will have all the codes for factory fitted options. Or call a VW dealer, give them the reg and they can tell you if it had one fitted from factory

Not an expert on ED30's but only just noticed there is no function buttons on the wheel.

Is there anything else ED30 standard that I should check for?
