Beautiful looking car there :cool:

That is how to take photos of a car, gorgeous scenery and a gorgeous car.

Excellent choice

Much more distinctive than black :rolleyes:

*Dons armour and waits for the backlash from Black GTI owners* :wink:

I've had two Mk5 black GTIs and another on the way - also black ... white looks fantastic and I prefer it to black in a way but I'm too much of a coward to actually go for it and get white.  :embarassed:  Might not be able to live with it in the long run.

It is VERY easy to live with it in the long run!  :laugh: It looks ZZZUPER in white, I am soooooo glad I changed from black to white in the end! I see white cars more and more - SAAB, BMW, PORSCHE, saw a similar Ed30 the other day. Saw a gray Ed30 with black rims yesterday. Ed30s are very rare here still and all the drivers check each other out.  :laugh: I got a wave and a smile from gray Ed30 driver, it felt great! In Ed30 you feel like you belong to some kind of club.  :smiley:

THe scenery in the mountains here is breath-taking. Norway is even more breath-taking. Drive to Flom and see for yourself.

THANK YOU ALL FOR REPLIES!!!  :smiley: Appreciate it!   :smiley:

Now go for another drive, guys.  :laugh: :laugh:

My new Background and MSN Display picture, i absolutley love the contrast of black on white on this car!!!!!  :kiss: :kiss: :kiss: lol  :grin:

Oh, Vielen Dank!!!  :smiley:

(these images are heavily compressed, I have original 8mp versions if you need, shot with Canon EOS 350D.)

I prefer these ones myself:




Now I have also put the photos as background on the computers at work.  :evil:  :laugh:
My boss brought me a bottle of bubbly last Friday, we celebrate Ed30 on Wednesday.  :smiley:

The Mk5 GTI is totally comfortable and feels solid and stable up to about 135 mph (GPS on German autobahns) and then she begins to feel a bit 'light' and is slow to gain anymore speed. She'll 'cruise' at 120 mph for as long as you want without feeling stressed or stretched. On one day I saw an average of 90 mph :smiley: :cool:.

Ed.30 has a bit more power higher up in the rev range, so at x30 km/h it was pulling nicely, and it would go faster, but I was afraid to push anymore.  :embarassed:
Imagine 330hp Oettinger conversion and a bit longer 6th gear - it would do 300kmh no problem.  :smiley:

....I hope you'll understand that I'm not trying to say my car is faster than yours etc when I say this, but: With the various performance mods on my car its performance is probably similar to a standard Ed30 and might even be faster (also depending on the driver!). But I don't want to start any "my pen!s is bigger than yours" stuff :grin:

didn't know you were talking about your red devil.  :smiley: I can only tell what I felt - I was doing x30kmh by GPS (close to x70 on speedometer) and it was still pulling, but I stepped off the gas pedal.  :embarassed:
