Welcome and yes great car. I had CW GTI before my ED35 and loved it, after 2.5 years of ownership, probably the best all round car I have had to date.
Current: GTI Edition 35 Candy White 5dr DSG 19" Glendale, RCD510+DAB, Dynaudio, Storage Pack, Parking Sensors

Gone: Edition 35, GTI Mk6, Edition 30, GTI Mk4, GTI Mk3, GTI Mk2 and my favourite the UR quattro
For those that dont know DSG is an electronically controlled dual-clutch multiple-shaft manual gearbox

Thanks guys for welcome and comments :smiley:

Leon is my work derv, just coming up a year old and 25k miles, been great to date although I did prefer my Golf GT Sport 170 had previously.

The GTD was my preferred choice but the waiting list was just a joke last year, 7 months compared to 9 weeks for the Leon and a £5k

Like this bit... :wink:

Just to clarify that was for the work hack, not my wife's car  :tongue: :wink:

Wife's car only does about 6k per year so no need for 2 diesels, plus I need to feed the petrol head in me  :evil:

Bought a new camera yesterday, nothing flash just better than what we had and something which is basically point and shoot as I am certainly no David Bailey with no desire to be one!

Anyhows  some pics...

The white looks  :cool:

Maybe I should have gone for the white, instead of the black... :undecided:
