Edition 35?

They look the same to me Snoopy, maybe just cos they're on a light colour? those black wheels are the Glendale ones according to the German configurator. Just specced one up, White, 5door DSG, Glendales, RCD 510, camera and MFSW,
35,000euro thats just over £32,000.
The equivelent GTI is 30,875euro or £28,250 so £3750 difference!

Anyone who feels that the Ed35 is worth that extra amount needs to have a vacation in Libya. 

People will still pay the extra for an Anni

I guessed 4k. Yaaaay. What do I win?

Plus you've got to allow the extra £1100 for the xenons on the normal GTI which are standard on the German ED35.

Theres two sets one silver one smoked of the 18s It lists them on the German configurator as a no cost option.

I reckon a 3 door Ed35 will end up costing around £28K. When you consider that a basic GTI with xenons and 18's is around £26,700 that would be less than 2K extra.

On a separate topic, I noticed that the standard GTI/GTD come with darkened R LED tails in Germany, rather than the red ones fitted in the UK.

I was looking at this photo of the edition 35 and then noticed i had the same look on my face as the guy in red on the left of the photo..

Looks like the car still has the transit blocks in it!!! Surely it must sit a lot lower than that?

[Exonian]

It looks like its glands are swollen from that angle too. I'd like to say I quite like the car but I can't, and then I think of its likely cost and really really really can't.




Okay, I do like it a bit

My copy of Volkwagen Driver mag has plopped through the letterbox and in it is a mention that VW are whizzing an ED35 over specially for GTI International on the Sunday. Sadly the other Worthersee specials are tied up elsewhere racing.
It'll be interesting to hear what people think of it who've seen it in the metal. I've asked my wife if she'd mind moving her birthday this year but so far have been unsuccessful with negotiations......
