Hi all, a long story but I have just become the owner of my sons Edition 35 and looking forward to getting involved with this forum, last golf I owned was an Edition 30 which I sold about 8yrs ago now.

A little about the car, It has a stage 1 remap, ECS intake, Cobra exhaust and decat and has Eibach lowering springs. I have got all the original parts and I am all for putting it back to stock and getting the alloys back to the original colour. What are anybody’s thoughts are getting this Edition 35 back to original, a good or bad thing to do?

It does look really good as is.
Maybe getting it partly back to stock would be good.
Keep the stage 1 and possibly even the black wheels (unless they need a refurb anyway) and put the exhaust and suspension back to standard. Mind you, if the ride quality is good then I’d keep the springs too.
