Thanks mate im happy with it, got it booked into the Bodyshop in 2 weeks time to have front splitter and bumper scrapes fixed and he has done me a decent deal as its the 3rd car i will have taken to him lol.

ONce car tax and front tyres paid for will start saving for next years service and then its a re-map, Milltek, Twintake and possibly HPFP in one go, hopefully may/june next year, happy to live with it std for now.

Yours sounds like a nice one, i never looked at a silver one as when i was looking there did not appear to be any in my price range lol, except for a heavily modded one.

Just bumped into one of our neighbours in town, nice chap, usual formalities exchanged, he says he better get off as he needs to catch the bus home as his car is in for service, so i said im going home now you can have a lift if you like (He lives in the house opposite). He gets in  and we set off, im pootling along on the A road at 50 in traffic (60 limit area) and he says "is this quick?", i said its pretty nippy and he said lets get past these dawdlers then, so into S on the DSG and nail the throttle, past 3 cars in a flash and he says, i like this, might get the wife one as they do an auto!!, drop him off and his wife comes out and has a look, what do you reckon he says, do you fancy one of these in auto, she says yes i like it, is it quick?, turns out they have been looking for a small auto thats quick to "get past the older folks doddering along the bypass" she then says shall i call VW and see if they have any?.
So maybe my neighbours are the market for a Dealership Ed30 now lol.

Maybe another one converted to Ed30 owners club. He also asked me to take him for a spin when its modified to see how quick it is!?

P.S. my neighbours are 70 and 72, who knew they were still petrol heads LMAO, even funnier as they said "older folks doddering along the bypass" ROLFMSO


Thats brilliant! get them in a stage 2+ one!!!

Quick update for you all as I was coming down the lane tonight I spotted a MK5 GTI on the neighbours drive, from a quick glance it looks like its a 57 plate GTI in either silver or white (hard to tell as dark and no streetlights!), might pop over tomorrow and have a look  :happy2:
