Not limited edition. Just limited by the production time of the Mk7.5.
That’s how I read into the “limited” production too. Similar to the Clubsport and other limited cars (Pirelli, Ed30, Ed35). The limit being the amount of build slots available until production halts. There’s probably a soft limit depending on how many each importer decides they’re bringing in. More noticeable with RHD cars having less production flexibility unlike a LHD car which could be taken up by any number of different countries.
VW UK always seem a bit vague at best and there’s always “lost in translation” aspects to the conversion from the original VW German press releases into UK press releases. The dialogue obviously happens at senior management level between factory and VW UK and by the time it filters down to the press team and advertising execs the info is muddled until spec and numbers are locked in. Even then the dealer info and Configurator are often at odds 🙄
