Title: Picked up ED 35 today...
Post by: Murrayedition35 on 28 January 2012, 18:18
Well just picked up my Black ED35 at lunchtime today...We drove into the dealer and was parking the red GTI and we spotted the ED35 in the car park as we walked up to the showroom,I was going to take a couple of photo's however it had gone....so we went into the showroom and  said here to pickup the new car...The woman said the salesman is not here at the moment but would you like a coffee.. :rolleyes:  I'm thinking where's my car gone...after 15mins it rolls back into the dealer and the salesman comes in and said, just away for some petrol for your new car...I'm thinking what's going on here, that should have been done before I arrived....never mind everything went really smooth after that and even the 35 key was there...The sales said there not standard with the car, but he got one away....

Great drive home, apart from the 2 grittier lorries spraying salt all over the road as I passed them.....Had to wash down the car when I got home it was covered in salt  :angry: :angry:

Will post up a few photo's shortly....

Very nice, I like the 35 on the boot too, sits nice against the black paint.

Title: Re: Picked up ED 35 today...

Are you gonna replace the wings badges with red ones? I reckon that would look sweet! Not sure about red against candy white but might think about Chrome one for mine.
Title: Re: Picked up ED 35 today...
Post by: carl1 on 30 January 2012, 07:50
Not to sure about the 35 on the boot mate but i wasn't keen on the 35 on the wings when i first saw press pics but thought they look good when i picked mine up so maybe better in the flesh.

P.s are you as sad as me and checked that the car has soild black wing mirrors and lower lip on front bumper against metalic black  :smiley:
Title: Re: Picked up ED 35 today...
Post by: Murrayedition35 on 30 January 2012, 19:55
No plans to change the chrome wings to red....I thought the red one on the boot just sets it off....

Always thought the ed35 should have unique badging....very nice mate!

Post by: skandar on 01 February 2012, 07:32
Car looks tidy mate...
I noticed in the interior pic, it still comes with a with key start.
I thought newer models were standardised with start/stop button now. Like in the ED35 ad?

Keyless entry and start is still not an option on uk models. We have to struggle with a key.
