Hi all,

My dealer is offering me around 20K to take back my Edition 30.  Still very low mileage.

Anyone on here stuck on the waiting list want to make me a better offer?

This is a stictly one week offer!  i.e. needs to be sorted by next sunday (8th July)

Im shocked, thats for a "limited edition" GTi, so much for better resisiduals!, your best of going down the private route to get at least £23500 imo

Exactly - selling any car that new is just asking for trouble. They're ripping your eyes out. Try another dealer if you must but a private sale is simply the best option.

Bottom falling out of the Ed30 market - get a standard GTI instead - in black of course  :grin: :grin: :grin:

You know it makes sense :smiley:
