So far, Not impressed - Doesn't look "very special" as an Edition 35 owner, I would expect it to be set out abit - looks like any other white 8.5 GTi to me.

No exclusive wheels or bumpers or even splitters from what I can see.
Every "edition" that has come out has had at least an exclusive set of wheels made by BBS.

BBS declared themselves insolvent last year (not for the first time). The suspension component manufacturer KW automotive acquired all of BBS’s assets so production of BBS branded alloys could well commence again soon, but probably not in time to produce a set of exclusive wheels for the Edition 50 Golf GTI.

The Belvederes on the CS40 were made by Fuchs not BBS and I’m pretty sure the Scottsdale wheels on the Ed45 weren’t BBS although they were German made.
