You will wanna keep it , DONT SELL!! ,
trust me, a drive in a vauxhall wont be enough to make you wanna sell. Just close the garage door, and try and forget the seed in your mind
for a few days.

....So if you don't use your Ed30 enough but still love it, what makes you think you'll drive a VX220 or any other car more often?

my car is one of the first of six ed 30 s in the uk , it s one of six cars used by vw for marketing the ed 30 , 2 candy white 2 red 2 black ! i have tried to trace the other 5 but to no avail , so my numbered plaque should be no 1-6 !! if it turns out to be number 1 the price will go up !!!!!!!!!!
the car has every extra apart from cruise control , park sensors and no mfsw
it has loads of other mods as in my sig , only has 1 stone chip on front wheel arch (was on when got car ) which i was going to get pro re done but not got round to it yet !
it still feels and smells as new , but goes like stink , always warmed and cooled , waxed every time its been washed , lives in a carpeted and heated garage need i say more !
dont need the money , not on hp so no offers thanks

original vw press release picture !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
see vw uk regional press release day
-
Candy, why not put a FOR SALE sign with the price in your sig :wink:
-
driven vx 220 turbo :sick: not for me !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
-
Not a VX220 but I just sold my Elise, couldn't get on with it at all.

Not a VX220 but I just sold my Elise, couldn't get on with it at all.
had an idea about having it as a toy , or for summer , vx is an elise really with a better engine made by vauxhall rather than rover !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :grin:
-

Debateable :grin:

have you still got the octavia or have you moved on ?
-
The Octy has gone too. :cool:

Which Elise did you have Stu?

The Rover engine in mine is absolutely stunning. Admittedly, in standard form the 118hp is not really enough and can be quite boring, but if you go for a tuned variant of the K-Series engine i.e. 111S with the close ratio box, or a Sport 160, then you won't be disappointed at all!
-
I had the normal K series too. I did buy a 160 gearbox but didn't get around to fitting it.
-
the vx turbo really flies but used to vw build i suppose !! :grin:

Yeah I understand what you're saying completely. So, now that you've ruled out the VX, is there anything else that you are considering?
-
yes hanging on to the edition 30 , came back on the b roads and it never fails to make me smile :smiley:

....And it's very much more comfortable than an Elise and a far better allrounder.
-
Glad youve made the right choice Candy!!, keep her matie,will be a sort after motor in years to come imo, and potentially with a low build number WILL add to value
-
nice car but to say keep it and it will add value is stupid cars are droping like a stone atm
but if i were you I would keep it because as we have said before its a bad time to sell
unless you want to buy a real sports car as there are many bargins about atm.
but you could get a new Shape Porsche Boxster for 17k
or a Lotus Exige for 17k
if its only a toy you want there are better cars out there for the same money.

so VX TUrbo is even more rattly than Mk5? :shocked:
-
is my car unique ? it dont rattle , does nt sound like a diesel , no crunching , grinding , stearing problems , seem s most others suffer the above !!!!
-
apart from my recent balls up by my dealer, mine is the same as yours Candy.
-
thats not your fault mate , taking your can for a service etc should be easy but thats just not the case nowadays , i was deciding what to do, where to go for weeks leading up to my first service ! eventually went to supplying dealer with own oil and "the ten commandments " !!!! luckly all was ok :shocked:
