Title: Edition 30 - For sale
Post by: athol on 04 December 2007, 10:01
PLEASE DON'T MOVE THIS TO THE FOR SALE SECTION - NO-ONE LOOKS AT IT !


Hi All


I've got to let my beautiful ED30 go. It's an August07 3 door in diamond black pearl. Extras are MFD2 Nav, hi-line computer, multifunction wheel, armrest, 18" BBS CH, Sony Ericsson bluetooth kit, road angel, Harmon Kardon I-pod connector with screen. It's a UK main dealer supplied car and obviously perfect. She's only done 3000 miles so far.

It's a sad day but the wife's not working anymore so money is tight.

Looking for £21K and i'm in Glasgow but can view next weekend in Oxford if that helps anyone.

Have a look through my old posts for pics.

Cheers

Oh no... And that before christmas.  :cry:
Im sure you will miss it and hopefully be able to replace it soon again.

Do you have any idea of what you may get in its place?

Best wishes
Mike

Sorry to hear that mate..... but you're going to struggle like I did this time of year. In the end I did ok with a dealer but best I could get was 18.5K and most other people just don't have 21K laying around, they want finance. Not many of us can afford to lay out that kind of cash.

All the best as they are great cars!

Not getting anything  :cry:

I have a BMW z4M coupe and i'm downsizing to one car while the wife hunts for a new job. I did consider keeping the ED30 and trading her but I think the VW is worth more..... :grin:

Nope sorry it's an old fashioned manual. I tried DSG and didn't like it. Nice to see a fellow Glaswegian though !

it's a damn good car but apparently a bit slippery on the roads and it's extremely bad on petrol!!!! worse than r32...........

unlike the r32  :grin: :grin: :grin: :grin: :grin:

i had the option to buy a 6 month old convertible one but the insurance and the extra cost over the r32 was a step too far

i got bills to pay  :huh:

z4m is great fun. Very slippy but that's the way it's supposed to be. It's designed as a challenging car to drive and that gets misinterpreted as bad handling. It's slidy yet prdictable and progressive.

I've had 19"CSLs, strut brace and Eibach springs put on mine to make it look and go the way it should.

Petrol isn't too bad (about 22mpg in mixed driving) which doesn't bother me too much. I get 40p a mile anyway so who cares !

Anyway, enough on the beemer, who wants an ED30?
