thats the spec im after (same as my current one) but £28995!!!!!, having a giraffe! :angry:
-
nice car,shame about the wheels, :tongue:
-
the rear looks high...
-
talk about devalueing a car from the outset !
Ok we may not all like the pescaras but I reckon you would need them at resale time,as the ed3 is a package.
unless of course its 19inch CHs lol :cool:
I reckon a quick cash deal and you could knock £Â£Ã‚£Ã‚£Ã‚£ off that
-
Yeah, let me just get £27,000 out the bank in CASH !

:grin:

Ive always fancied a set of monza IIs on my ED30 but seeing thise pictures has out me right off!!!
-
Like it a lot, so much in fact that I'm going to buy the steel grey version with monzas, looks so much better imho :smiley:
Anyway, each to their own, not sure how monzas would de value a car like the ed30 :wink:
-
Black and 18" Monza II's - you know it makes sense :wink:
Quality.

Exactly what I thought... I loved the Monza II's on my 06 GTI but they just don't look right on the Ed30.

Its all in the mind :wink:

Nope - you all need some nice 18" BBS CH like me. Monzas are the easiest ever wheels to kerb and the Pescaras lack that cute motorsport script and BBS centres. :drool:
-
BBS CH are nice but not different enought to the Pescaras to justify the £300 per wheel price in my opinion!
(Price based on 19's btw :grin:)

definately won't be changing my pescaras just for 'cute motorsport script & centres' whats the point?! 19's maybe, but 18's?? just madness! :laugh: imo of course! Them monzas don't look as great as I imagined on that black ED30, I had toyed with the idea myself...
-
those monzas look gash!! anybody got some prescaras for sale?? :drool:
-
I like the look of the rims on your gti joe, suit the black - got side on pic? they 18's?
-
ill upload some after dinner or maybe on monday after i give her the sunday clean, abit dirt at the moment, yea there 18's, want some bbs lm's or some of an ed30, :drool:
-
these cars are imports so not worth the cash get a uk one and haggle a bit :smiley:
-
the ed30 alloys are much nicer on the ed30 but the monza alloys suit the gti.......
he should have fitted them gangsta bling alloys. would have added £3k to that price.

:shocked:

Why would anyone want to put Monza II's on an ED30 for goodness sake.
Like putting clogs on a Thierry Henri :rolleyes:

Bit confused as you're all slating the monzas and yet imho they look better on the gti ed30! So much so in fact in germany etc the monza black wheel is the preferred fit for the ed30? :wink:
Each to their own, also, comments re imports quite frankly show that most people are not up to speed re block exemption, all vw's gti ed30's are built on same line and if imported to the uk same spec, I personally would rather buy an import from a german supplier to uk spec and save myself 2 grand!
Lastly, because of eu rulings the build quality and standards on the parallel import cars are exactly that of a uk dealer car. I have a friend who imports amg's and audi rs's for dealers so they can't be that bad?
I will post some pics of my new ed30 (steel grey with full kit) with monza's (silver) when I get the car end of the month. :grin:

tooo late....

i did initially consider getting the E30 but the alloys put me off. I would have if it came with either monza 2's or r32 alloys. Im not a big fan of those E30 alloys
-
We only just ordered an E30, but when we saw one in the showroom the pescaras looked far better than we expected.
I guess it depends on what statement you're looking for. The Monzas are great but very much in your face. The Pescaras are classy but a bit more er refined I guess. I'd feel more comfortable stepping out of the standard E30 if going to a business meeting (must be my age - 40!).
Mind you, I did order a white E30, so it'll still be a bit of a statement :-)
