Clubsport Edition 40 and Clubsport S build numbers (and car photos)

[Exonian]

Well i nearly bought an ed40 last year pew reg but he wouldn't take my lotus part ex so went off the idea

Went to see another ed40 yesterday ex demo but couldn't justify the 7k premium over a 16 reg R or GTI PP

Decided either go for the proper one or just get a regular GTI

I'm hoping it's a good compromise between the Elise and a normal car. The R26R is the car I always regret not buying and this is the modern equivalent really

Hope it's worth it cos I bloody love my lotus!

Welcome back to the fold then Ken.

Was it a VW dealer car you bought, or an indie dealer or private buy? (just being nosey as I'm curious about such things)

Thanks

It was the general manager of a lookers franchise personal car which he sold to them. He was able to get it via lookers VW. I'm buying from a dealer (not VW though) but it was the guy I dealt with own car basically

Interesting. Thanks for that.
It'll be quite a special thing to own. Maybe not Lotus special but certainly it'll still be a great car and I find my Clubsport tends to attract a fair bit of attention out and about.

Hello all

Just bought a clubsport S today #207

Had a mk6 GTI a while back and swapped for a lotus which I'm now trading in

Was looking for something practical and ended up with a 310bhp golf with no back seats but never mind!

Its more than practical enough, got a big boot and don't forget if you have kids you can have them adopted.

So I picked my Clubsport up yesterday. No. 274.

And what does sir think of it? 

I love it! Feels really special. It's drives like no other performance gti I've owned. The seats and the colour , along with the spec really make it an occasion. How do I post up pictures?

Hello folks 

I very recently had an extended test drive of a Clubsport and think I've found my next car 

I currently have a 2015 Octavia vRS (mine since new) and had been toying with an R, but as others have said, and after half a dozen or so test drives, there just wasn't a 'wow' factor for me.  However the CS test drive I recently had changed all that.

So I'm now on the hunt.  If there was any chance of finding no.132, and if it was a DSG, that could be my perfect car, but it seems like finding it could be nigh on impossible (and with my luck, the owner would have bought it as a keeper  :roll eyes:), but you never know....

Anyway, this is the one I had for a morning:


And I really didn't want to give it back.  A very addictive car to drive, but my local VW were just a tad too immoveable on price, so the hunt goes on.

So far this is the only place I've found with an indication of Ed 40 car numbers.  VW were their usual helpful selves and offered me details of my local retailers.

Anyway, hello folks.  CS ownerless enthusiast here, hoping to change that soon.

Regards

Welcome Gaz, good luck with the search, you absolutely won't regret it.
