Hi chaps

Yep the saleman was going off the system details.  They have just got the car back from wheel refurbishment and I am booked in tomorrow to have a look at 10.30 when they open.

I was driving home this evening and couldn't wait so impatiently head over to the dealer.  I must have looked like a thief on their CCTV cameras!  10pm at night, industrial estate, red Honda ITR with a carbon bonnet and some dude in a beenie hat walking around their private forecourt, lol!

Anyhow, there she was, right on the edge!!  Must have been love at first site!  Reflex silver really really suits these!  Had a quick look around, don't like mismatching tyres; it has Continentals on the rear and Dunlops on the front.  I'll have a good look at the treads tomorrow and if a pair are short (quite likely) I'll want them to replace to match the other two.

It looks MINT!  I know it's dark etc but it is a 1 owner car on low mileage.  And yes, thank God it does have half leather trim in immaculate condition!

I think I'll have it, subject to me searching for bits wrong and trying to get a deal! 

I'll take my licence and go out for a drive to see how different it feels to my Jetta TFSI.  If it's too similar then it might not be worth the extra money.

Didn't want a DSG either so am happy with a manual box.

I'll fill you guys in tomorrow......

I have to ask though if you have an ITR are you swapping or keeping?

ITR stays forever!

I have a chap interested in taking the Jetta TFSI.  I know I love it but if I can get almost my money back (minus mods of course) then it might be worth going for the Edition 30; being a sought after Golf it might hold up residuals better in the next few years against my Jetta.
