Dealer has just called again today to say my ED30 is in the UK and he can have it to me by the weekend   :shocked: 

Annoying thing is I am away to Glasgow this weeekend to watch the Scotland game so I have told him early next week will be fine - so with any luck I will have pics up by this time next week  :cool: :grin: :laugh:

So what are the recommendations for run in?  My dealer has said he doesn't believe in run-ins but again it is not his car!!!  What do you guys think?



Running in instructions are in the manual. Go time/distance for servicing and avoid the longlife option  - dealer will programme this for you.

tell dealer you want car for Friday lunchtime - then you can give it a gentle run :evil: north of the border.
And don't forget your passport  :laugh:

soooo many black ed 30's being born!!, getting too many!!  :shocked:
Can there be to many????

Seriously though I have changed my mind on the colour soooo many times

Red lovely , highlights black bits nicely
Dark Silver , as above , always look clean , but had a few cars in dark silver
Black , awesome when clean , GTI features somewhat hidden.
even white , which is the current 'in' colour

every time I see a colour , Im nearly on my way to get the dealer to change my colour choice!

in the end , all look great , and I'll stick with black as Ive never had a black car  :smiley:
