I had no intention to change my 9 month old CG ED35 but my dealer offered me a deal I would be stupid to turn down. The car was in stock but it had a spec which suited me so I am very pleased with it.
Here are a couple of pics of when I picked it up. I will post a few more when the weather improves.

Looks the business :wink:
-
Really nice that :cool:
-
what was the cost to change if you dont mind me asking?
the dealer phoned me asking if i wanted to trade in my GTI for an ed35 (in stock with 2k off list price). i decided not to pursue it as the mk7 is too near launch.
-
Looking good that :cool:
My dealer has a new manual 3 door in white at the moment with the Glendales, no other extras.
If it had been DSG I might have been tempted.

Very nice indeed.
As much as I love my new bimmer I do really miss my gti. I thinks its more the look of the car.

Cost to change was zero.
I lease my cars (as i get a monthly car allowance) and due to the current offers e.g 2k dealer contribution and a reduced interest rate my monthly payments have gone down.
Good point ref Mk7 but as I had decided that I would probably keep my ED35 for at least another 2 years it made sense for me. I had done 13k miles in my CG ED35 which would have needed new tyres in 4-6 months time so this has also delayed that cost too.
For my circumstances it just suited me.

Wise decision there - new car for less money - I had a very similar opportunity recently and nearly jumped into it but couldn't quite get the spec I wanted

Very nice but too many doors :evil:

i assumed it must have been a lease deal
makes alot of sense to change in your case. especially as your old car had a few miles on etc.
i pay my cars off early so to change at that sort of time would be eye watering in depreciation.
2 years time your new car will be due a change and ready for a mk7 just in time for all the teething problems to be ironed out! good timing :cool:

Looks great, sounds like a sweet deal! :cool:

Thanks for the positive comments about the car and deal. Ginge if I could have a three door I would, but having two teenage boys in the back every day it is not an option. When I had the MK4 I had a three door when my boys were young but they nearly wrecked the folding seats getting in and out :angry:
Any way I am really loving the car and already feel happier in this than my CG ED35 as its a better deal. :smiley:

always good to see a 35 slapped on the rear

New pic taken today in the sun. Next time I will use my camera not my iPhone :smiley:
