Basically:
- bigger turbo, slightly different engine internals, so the car produces 230bhp instead of 200bhp.
- body-coloured trim (front spoiler, side skirts, rear valance)
- 18" pescara alloys (std gti had 17" as standard)
- half-leather seats with heated seats.
- Edition 30 logos on the back and inside the car

Anyone want to add anything else?

Cost you around £2K more for same year/mileage. I was going to swap my GTI for an ED30, but the cost to swap put me off. A decent remap will give the GTI more BHP for around £300+. Don't get me wrong, given the choice I'd have an ED30, but it depends on your circumstances and what you want! Also, to add, the one I drove had electric seats and a CD dash mounted multichanger, not sure if these are standard.

From brochure:

Darkened rear light cluster

Door sill strip with 'Edition 30' logo

Red stitching on steering wheel.

As said, undoubtably a better car, but when it was new was certainly not worth the £3k extra (every magazine agreed). Second hand is different and probably worth paying £1.5-2k more.
