Here's mine number 2101 - guess I'm glad they did over run the production of ED30's !

That means you would have had the last official one if they'd stopped at 1500 like they initially said.

Also means your car would have been worth more in the long run as it would have been (to quote the famous words)

"This is the last Edition 30 to roll off the production line and as such is a true collectors item" :lipsrsealed:

Damn those VW bods.

Awesome!! You lucky git! Out of interest, when did you order your car so I can get a rough idea of what number mine is going to be if/when I get the letter and/or plaque!  That goes for anyone else actually that wants to post up their order date and plaque no. because I'm curious!

don't think that will happen - you need to phone them up and confirm the chassis number or something - guess they then confirm the address for it to be sent to as well

Not correct  :evil: :evil: :evil: :evil:  I got my plaque today and didn't bother calling VW when I got my letter - just been too busy.   Sort of regret selling my 07 (which was pre-ordered in Oct 06 and arrived Jan 07) as I'm sure it would have been a low number - double figures if not single.  Anyway, my 57 plate Edition 30 ordered in June 07 has plaque number 1085... pics to come soon.

I was but still haven't received a letter or plaque.  Have phoned them anyway as it seems to be a bit hit & miss who is receiving what, just like the differing information everyone was told!

I think I put my name against it yes...  but to be honest, although the plaque is nice, I think VW have got off too lightly.  Its sheer misrepresentation to do what they did and I am surprised they can get away with it.  I'ill accept a cheap R32 as compensation though  :grin: :grin: :grin: :grin: :grin: :grin: :grin:  Serves them right.

Hmmm... thats interesting.  I wonder where those cars are then.   I feel  bit better now as my old Ed30 delivered in Feb 07 would have been in the hundreds then.  I was thinking it might have been double or even single figures :shocked: as I pre-ordered mine a week before it was officially announced in late 2006 and it was delivered in Feb 2007 - or maybe it could have been Jan - but I can't remember.

I have to say vw dont seem to have a clue.It seems to vary on who you are lucky enough(or unlucky)to speak to at customer services!
I did'nt do any of the above, plaque just turned up in the post.I know i was one of a few to contact vw on the over-run in jan/feb and made my views known..

I phoned vw customer services in the beginning of november without receiving a letter.  They confirmed my details and told me to expect the plaque in 2 weeks.  Still haven't received a letter or plaque, so i rang them again and apparently i have to wait for the letter before i get a plaque.  Also, apparently, "there are only 500 plaques being made" :undecided:

Thats exactly when I ordered mine... the first one that is, which I sold back to a dealer.  Interested to see what number you get.  Also I don't see VW can only produce 500 plaques - maybe the guy meant 1500 but even then there are people here with plaques above that number.  My 57 plate Ed 30 is 1085 so I can see how they've only got 500 plaques.

Yes, i'm interested to see what i get as well.  I was told by my dealer that my car would be one of the first in the country, as i placed a deposit on the car back in July/August 2006 as soon as the first details came to the dealership.  That may have been a sales gimmic though.

Any updates for the rest of you guys ? Strange that I got mine so fast since it was only registere in June 08 and that it's such a late number 2101.  However I did pester VW UK with the plaque for a while and my details were submitted in the forum letter to VWCS. Even stranger though after thinking about it is ... when I ordered the car on 1st June 2008, I ordered it from existing VAG stock in the UK.  I really wanted a candy white one - but there was only one left which was a car with every single extra which was a bit out of my acceptable price range.  I was also told that by this time wolfsburg had stopped taking factory orders - but ... since mine is 2101 that means there must have been 199 cars made after mine - I find it hard to believe as showing on the VW database when I bought my car were only another 9 ED30's in the UK, no grey, no white.

Hope you get them soon,

Gareth

Give vw customer services a ring to chase them up direct. Number was posted i think early in this thread toast.

here we go 08000833914


Well unfortunately as far as I can see they aren't really that bothered at VW!!  I rang again this morning; (3rd time since beginning of Nov) 'Kelly' informed me that I had been mis-informed and until we receive a letter to then make contact again with VW to start a 'Case' no plaque will appear. As far as the length of time to receive a letter? She couldn't say as they have so many cars and customers to get through!!!!.............wonder just how many Ed 30's there are then!  She couldn't even tell me what number it is although it is firmly on their system. Another department is dealing with it :sad:

Typical - VW Customer & Financial Services are one of the most abismal organistations I have ever had dealings with - truly pathetic.  I've had so many run ins with them over the last 6 months its incredible. My last complaint was dealt with only after I wrote to a VW UK Board Member, who then got the issue sorted within 24hrs ??? Shockingly bad in every respect - I'll never buy a new VW ever again because of it.  Had truly excellent service off my dealer - before and after the sale of my ED30.

Regards,

Gareth

Frank

The plaque is for UK-registered cars only. There was supposed to be a limited production of 1500 edition 30 cars. VW made around 2300 edition-30 cars for the UK market.

VW as far as I can tell, didn't limit production of ed-30 cars to other countries. You cannot get an original plaque. Contact VW.

Post by: g60forever on 08 January 2009, 23:47
Ohh thanks Mr stealthwolf

Thanks for your help, 2300 cars a penalty.
If anyone can sell a plate for me, I like it, in Spain there is no ed30, and Germany no for sale plaque, only U.K
Please, Please, Please........... Plaque for my ed30

I've got a case number from phoning them up but haven't received a letter.  I've not received the plaque yet and was told it would be 1-2 months. As soon as the 2 months is up (which should be soon) I'll be on the blower again with my case number in my hand   :evil:

Dear All,

As you may or may not know I'm starting to build an Edition 30 register.  All of you who've had plaques could you please have a look at this thread:-

http://www.mk5golfgti.co.uk/forum/index.php?topic=1582.0

"Dear All,

Right then guys, since the plaques seem to be arriving (and I am a total ED30 geek) am thinking about starting an Edition 30 register. I saw this on the net when looking to buy mine http://uk-mkivs.net/forums/p/121120/819301.aspx and  http://uk-mkivs.net/content/GTIEdition30LandingPage.aspx .  I think we can now expand on this and improve it to include:-

Build Number (ordered to run from 1 - 2300)
Registration Date
Build Date (if available)
Number Plate Age Indicator (e.g. 56, 07, 57, 08 etc)
Colour
Number Of Doors
Transmission (Manual or DSG)
Optional Extras
Link to pics

I will collate if you guys supply me with information into an excel sheet, and we can begin to publish possibly by me forwarding to a moderator here ?  It cpuld serve as an additional database to the already busy and growing forum - attracting new members - am very happy to collate myself.  Of course - it goes without saying that all information submitted will be kept secure and not divulged, trust me - I am in a job where I am trusted with extremely sensitive material.

If everybody is happy I'll start with mine:-

Build Number :- 2101
Registration Date :- 30/05/2008
Build Date (if available) :- TBC
Number Plate Age Indicator (e.g. 56, 07, 57, 08 etc) :- 08
Colour :- Tornado Red
Number Of Doors :- 3 DR
Transmission (Manual or DSG) :- Manual
Optional Extras :- Centre Arm Rest, Rear Tints, RCD500 & Soundpack

If you'd like to add to the topic, and perhaps if it is successful we could sticky it - I'll update as we go along and liaise with a mod here.

Hope you all think it's a good idea - seems a natural place for it to be - on a mk5golfgti forum !  It can also add prestige (possibly even value in the long run) to the cars further on in their respective lives.

Regards,

Gareth"

Just called customer services and they said that mine is still in the system and they are getting sent out in batches of 200 and they are compling a list of who has recieved and who hasn't.  She also said that they had plenty folk call and say the didn't want a plaque!!

All in all I once again felt fobbed off with a long winded story that is probably half true.  By the time I get this plaque I think I will driving a different car and to be honest the way that VW have dealt with the whole VW Edition 30 shambles means I will never buy another car from them again.  Not only did they lie in their literature they have botched up the plaques issue and from the two times I have had to visit the dealer they have show nothing but complete stupidity and damn right rudeness on one occasion.

Hello chaps, been some time since I've been on here, but I've got my palque now. It's number 607.  Is everyone sticking them to the passenger door as it states in the instructions, or are you sticking them elsewhere?  I don't know if anyone else has noticed, but the diagram showing where to stick it is showing the drivers door.  :huh: I guess the picture is of a left hand drive car.  I thought about putting it on the space just below the gearlever, then it's displayed for everyone to see.  Anyone else stuck theirs there?

Thanks for that.  Not bad thank you, just needs a good clean and polish at the min!  No mods, like to keep the car in its original spec and unmolested.

Still not heard anything at all. Not particularly bothered tbh (sorry to all those who put time and effort in) but a little concerned about it if I don't have one when I come to sell (sorry day that will be).

Haven't read through the discussion threads - what should I do?

Cheers

You've got a low number for a late car then!  And yes, you need to host pics on the web (eg. Photobucket) to post them on here.

Whiteshirts must have been built aot earlier than when it was registered judging on the build number and the date of registration. Mine was registered on 07/08 I still not even a letter, seems odd to give someone a plaque that was registered after mine  :huh:

Maybe so, not really bothered as when I come to sell it, it will be the date registered!!!
On reflection I hope the reason I have got squeeky brakes, is that it has not been stood in a field for a few months !

We rang a dozen times until eventually a bloke, (forgot his name) set up a case id number for our car. We then received plaque and instructions 3 weeks later. Because the car is registered in my other halfs name they wouldn't even discuss with me !  :smiley:

Just rang VW customer services.

They say I need to pop in to a VW dealer when I receive my log book and they need to add me to the system as the new owner of the vehicle. I then need to wait for a letter from VW (I guess its some welcome letter?) before my plaque is sent to me.

Is that normal?

I rang VW Customer Services, after checking their computer, they said they would pass my details on, and not bother sending a letter out. A week later it came through!!

The woman i spoke to opened a case or somet, and gave me a reference number. She said I should receive a welcome letter as well, which I havent! Its been a few weeks now.

Got my letter last week, phoned yesterday. Lady on the other end didn't have a clue what I was talking about at first, but then said it would be 2 -3 months. She indicated they're made and sent out in batches. Presumably this means the plaque number we all get is dependent on when we phone, as opposed to anything to do with the car.  :huh:

Woohoo finally got my plague today!!!!  Number 1341.

I had my letter about 5 months ago and had called chasing them up but what seems to have pushed it through is that one of those independant survey companies called me a couple of months ago asking what my experience with VW had been and I let them know I was not happy with the way I was being treated in relation to the plague.  Then a week and a half ago a woman from VW called to say that they had recieved my negative feedback and that she was going to to get it sorted for me and that I should get it within a week.

Quite pleased to get the number for the car but I am away to trade it in now anyway!!!

Been waiting 5 months for mine, at least 1 or 2 calls a month. Phoned yesterday and the person dealing with plaques is "Jane Richardson" she was supposed to call me back with an update in 24 hrs. Guess what it didn't happen.

Can you request the customer feedback survey from somewhere seems like that may help??

Post by: Makaveli on 10 February 2010, 10:41
Only reason I think I was on the feedback survey was cos I had just put the car in for a service and may have just been one of the 'lucky' one's that was selected for a random feedback survey. 

The wifie was a bit shocked when I let loose with my rant about the plaques as she was wanting to ask me about the service!!!

I am STILL waiting for my Plaque.
Its almost a year now.
Apparently my Plaque had been ordered, but has now [conveniently] become 1 of 6 plaques lost in dispatch?!!
I mean seriously, WTF??
I have been told they will be contacting Milton Keynes to find out when and if the plaque has been dispatched. If it has been lost, it will take another 6-8 weeks to re-order another??

Seriously? Is this some kind of fcuking joke??? Its been almost a year now, and I'm fed more and more bulls**t.

Ive even spoken to the manager, who doesnt even bother ringing me back, after numerous messages being left for her to ring back.

This is the worst customer service I have received from any car company. Its a metal plaque for God sake, why does it take a year??

To me now, its not even the plaque. Its a matter of principle to me!! I WILL GET IT!

I rang back again today since the person dealing with my case didnt ring me back again yesterday - typical!
However, I left a message for the call centre overall manager to ring me back.

This manager rang me back, and I must say she was very polite.
She seemed shocked that this case had been going on for a year already. She apologised for the staff not ringing me back and said she would look into the matter. She also apologised for the service I had received so far.

In the meantime she said she would chase up the issue herself. She is off on leave tomorrow, but would get back to me on Tuesday afternoon.

The reason why I feel Im getting somewhere now, is because she assured me she would chase it up herself personally from now on. She said I should not speak to anyone else except her. She also said not to ring the call centre any more, but to ring her directly - and she gave me her direct mobile number as well, so no more waiting to get through to staff who are useless!!

Hopefully I will hear something positive early next week!

Haven't got a badge to show what build number my car is.

Do they still send them out if you ask?

Otherwise how do you get the build number........presume VW tell you but is there any link to the chassis number

I need a build plaque with number. If VW don't do them anymore is there somewhere that makes replicas?

Pick the car up on Thursday....... 4 days to go.

Bit like Xmas in my youger days  :drool:

Once you have the V5 in your name, you will need to fax it to Customer Services who will then start the process (assuming that they are still doing the plaques). Time to receive varies, but typically about 3 - 6 months. No point in chasing, as the just tell you it will be on its way very shortly, or is waiting to be released etc....

The plaques are made by Creative FX after instruction from VW:

020 8313 1146 - info@fxuk.net
Creative FX
145 Masons Hill
Bromley
Kent
BR2 9HW

I hope this helps, good luck and enjoy your car!

Well e mailed customer service and got a phonecall (3 days later) asking to send copy of V5 which i did same day. Got phonecall 2 days later saying that they were sending me the plaque via Recorded Delivery. Ny number is 0851. They must have them all at VW and just waiting to be asked to send them. So any of you who have been hesitating there does not seem to be any wait now.

So we believe that 2300 were imported to the UK

How many are there worldwide? Never seen the number anywhere.

Got the plaque No.0851 with its instructions how to fit!

Put the Plaque where i wanted it pressedd really hard all over to ensure good adhesion and it fell off  :grin:

The sticky back is about as sticky as water!

So how many ED30's are there worldwide then?

Well spoke to VW & finally managed to get sorted (last owner was on a private plate),took my details & VW said they would be in touch/post plaque out. Got a phone call last friday & they have already issued my car with a plaque no 1919 but it didn't come with it & VW won't send me another one  :cry:  :angry:. Will have to send a letter to last owner & see if he still has it.  :undecided:
