Edition 35 is here!

[Belix]

Just noticed the side skirts look different. Not the standard black oval one, nor the ones on the R (and some lower models). Is it a special side sill just for the Edition 35? Does nto look all that special...

Looks similar to the Bluemotion

strange, in that vid, the skirts look the same as the R and bluemotion. But in the earlier pics, it looks more flat without the contour...

Its exactly the same as a GTI except it has 35 logo on wheel arch, And horrible wheels,  Fail

 You'de be crazy not buying an R over one of these my 2 cents

Well it is a GTI after all, was never going to be major differences, just subtle one's which i personaly like.

+2k Pricetag, Which is 2k short of a Golf R

Now when you consider 2k gives you 4wheel drive 40bhp and the extra's that come standard over the GTI, It just doesn't make sense.
 People who got the best deal on the GTI bought one pretty much as the order books opened. Before the VAT rise and VW's price increases.

R is £3895 more than ed35, ed35 is £2220 more than gti and has 18 " alloys standard ( will cost you £470 on gti) xenons (£1160 on gti) also extra power and bodykit, so if you like them extras it aint too bad imo.

Agreed, if you were going to buy a GTI with xenons, leather and 18"s then I'd buy an ED35. BUT, if i were spending that amount of cash it would be on an R everytime.

^^^^Yes thats a personal decision but me personally i can afford a R but going over that nearly £31k barrier is a bit too much for a golf.
P.s looking at your spec i hope you didn't personally buy that new or nearly new else you may has well brought a R if you did spend that kind of money

Lol, very true my spec car costs more than an R.  I bought it as an ex-demo )
