Only £22500 for the edition 30 , i thought the resales values where ment to be way higher then standard GTi's, looks like i was right in saying there would be no difference between whether you have one with nasty red piping or not!.(also Volkswagen.co.uk used search is the same). That means ill have to shell out for an edition 30 just so that i can say , ive had tea with elizabeth on the lawn!!  :wink:

When I first read this post I thought it was a joke... But hey. you lucky sods.
of course you could just stick a body kit and get your car chipped and fit Pescara's and show up without an invitation :rolleyes:

Enjoy guys

The calm before the storm. Soon there will be all out war between GTi and ED30.

By the way to anyone that doesnt know this clearly is a joke !

You make me laugh Phil. One minute you hate the ED30, next minute you'll buy one when the prices drop, next minute the misses says you can't have it despite wanting it, next minute it's crap!

I'm happy with my GTi as the saving over an ED30 enabled me to buy a house, and I've never really gone in for tuning cars so the ability to get 310bhp doesn't matter to me.

It is obvious Phil really really wants Ed30, he is just coming up with different explanations in order to soothe the pain of not having Ed30.  :evil:

What I find incredible is that you are not tempted by the possibility of having 300hp in your command!  :shocked:

More to the point, I'm not interested in trying to insure 300bhp. Or to wipe out my warranty.
