So..How's everyone's ED30 etc

Loving mine, just need more time in it!  Only commute 8 miles to work each day so still running it in but can feel the car begging to be thrashed (and she will be! ).

No gripes yet, no rattles or any build quality issues.  Wasnt happy with the brakes for the first hundred miles or so but them seem to have bedded in now and are fine.

Only pain is keeping it clean but it looks sooooo good when done

Great Car, can't fault it AT ALL.

Just over 2000 miles now, still no dings (always take up two spaces in the car parks, don't care what people say!) and no stone chips either.

Love the colour and cleaning it once a week seems to keep it looking good. Wheels look great, drive is superb and I just love getting in it every day and driving it.

Oh one thing to add to this, put my foot down properly for the first time today whilst 'playing' with an Audi TT and almost drove into the back of him!!  Be careful out there people!!

Just sold mine  :embarassed:  did 8000 miles in 6/7 weeks of driving - it was garaged for the first 3/4 weeks.  Coming from a DSG R32, I didn't like it at first but in the last week after 7k miles it started to show a different character and really moved after 4k rpm.  I've got another - exactly the same but with DSG - coming in October.  I have a VR6 Highline for the summer and I have to day that the speakers in the Highline are far better than the Edition 30/R32/Mk5 GTI ones. And yes, the VR6 speakers are standard.

What do you do for a living Illyun, to cover so many milkes I mean?

I'm an IT Contractor working as a Network Architect/Tester.  I was working at BT for 2 years in Ipswich and decided to buy a house there - moving in next week - and 6 weeks ago I was temporarily seconded to the Orange Triple-Play (TV, Broadband and Voice over your telephone line) project for 3 months initially but now it looks like its going to be a year.  So I commute to Bristol every week from Ipswich and am quite busy during the weekends so get around a bit.

Still loving mine as well.  The car is perfect.

Still toying with not selling it even though moving to US.

So do you drive from Ipswich to Bristol every week day ?

No way... I'm not that mad.  I stay in a hotel in Newport, Wales.

Lovin every second - its now my second home!  Fantastic car, however, had a small stone chip at the front and a hairline scratch near the rear.  There is one thing - wonder if anyone else has the same small problem - there is a shudder from the rear passenger seat whenever i go over a bump, which mysteriously disappears when someone is sitting on the left hand side in the back.  Anyone know what it is/how to fix it?

Undo the chair so that it can split forwards.

Then after making sure that there are no little fingers etc  in the way.
SLAM THE CHAIR BACK INTO POSITION!!! 

Ok dont be so rough but just make certain that the chair is back tightly and that should cure the rattling. If there is a slight rattle while driving check the clips which you push to loosen the chair the plastic sometimes rattles.

Hope that kind of helps
