Golf GTI Edition 30
Diamond Black
3-Door
Manual
Sat Nav
Front Centre Arm Rest
I-Pod connection
Multifunction Steering Wheel
Nasty Pescara Alloys
Cruise Control
Xenon Headlights
Luxury Pack 1
Winter Pack
Rear tinted windows
Highline MFA
Front and Rear Speaker Upgrade – still wondering about this as I have read comments on this forum about the GTI door cards not being able to cope with the sound…


I am beginning to sort of regret getting the Edition 30 but I'm a mug so have to have it.  The only thing I am looking forward to is the extra 27hp   I will sorely miss the 18” Monzas and would have bought some to go on the car - not the black ones -  had it not been for the fact that I am buying some BBS 19" alloys. 

I just cannot understand why VW always do this - deliver a class leading vehicle but then also disappoint on many fronts until you wonder whether you are being ripped off?  Their 'conservatism' is really beginning to p155 me off.

Well I am planning on keeping the Edition 30 for good.  I was planning to sell the R32 but then it arrived later than planned so I decided to keep it - together with the Edition 30 - until August this year.  Now I am seriously thinking whether I should get on the property ladder instead of having 2 cars on the driveway worth £58k+ on the driveway.  I love the R32 and it has almost 9000 miles on the clock after only 2 1/2 months  :laugh: :laugh:.  I don't want to sell the R32, but the money could come in use towards a deposit  - I can always buy another R32 after all. I will decide this week what I shall be doing.  Brilliant car - bit heavy on fuel though.

Have a house you can't afford and a car you can afford to loose.

A new shape BMW 5 series Touring for the wife and for my self I am putting my self down for an Audi R8 taxfree, whilst I can still get tax free. Selling my Gti and Rx8.  I am glad I got on teh hosue market earlier, as the profits from the houses, when I sell allow me to buy my new toys.  End result is going to be a big ass house and my aston and bently on the drive.  Dream, that is.
