My New Motor. Edition 30!

[hufcforpromotion]

Here are some pics of my new motor. I traded in my 6 week old focus st3 for her! Worth every penny and by far the best VW I have owned and I have owned over 20 VW's including a mkV Golf GTI, I tried the ford out cos I got £4000 of it new as I am in the forces. Was a great car just awful on mpg and averaged 17 mpg over the 900 miles I drove. I wanted one of these edition 30's when they first came out but the VW dealerships would give me nothing off for cash so decided against one but picked this up for less than the price of a standard 07 plate GTI and she only has 2400 miles on her and perfect condition. I have owned 4 25th Anniversary Golf GTI's over the years and this car was always the natural progression for me. Anyhow enjoy the pics and let me know what you all think!?

Cheers John!

Looking good mate... I hope your pleased?

I was 'playing' with a new Focus ST last night!  It was pretty close - with the same sort of gap the whole time (they had a head start!).  I could have probably caught up... but I only have 600 miles on the clock - so I can only go to 5000rpm according to my run in 'schedule'

Don't you just hate that ! How long are you meant to "Run it in". TBH 600 isn't alot of miles so I think its probs best you didnt lol.

very niccce

but mudflaps... I know they "serve and protect" but still...

Thanks for all your positive comments! The mudflaps where fitted by previous owner but they are a must on a black car and you don't really notice them much! I must of bought the cheapest edition 30 in the country at less than £20k! My local VW dealership said I could sell it and make £2k profit! Will be keeping this motor for a long time and plan to get the Milltek turbo back as soon as it is developed.

Nice motor John, looks familiar!  As do those quarters in the background!  Bit of advice though mate, change the photos and blank out your VRN, there are some dodgy blokes out there
