Hi all,

I pick up my first VW on Friday, it's a black GTI ED30 (3 door). I just hope I can fit the kids in the back...forgot to take them with me on the test drive, loved the car and bought it lol. First task when I get the car is to start the ball rolling to get my No. plaque from VW UK.

Does the ED30 come with an AUX input for the stereo as standard?

You have to host you photo's on line somewhere like www.photobucket.com or simular then when you go to that site copy the  link for that photo as an URL and paste it in to the text on your post here you need the IMG  url on here some sites use a different system most use the IMG



click quote my post and you should see the url for the photo and not the photo to see what i mean

step by step details here in forum guide
