Terrible, terrible news about Ed30...
« on: 19 September 2007, 20:40 »
Traffic schools are using normal GTIs here for driving lessons.
I thought that would not happen to Ed30, but today, to my surprise, I saw 2 Ed30s (black and silver, both with black rims) belonging to a suburb traffic school!  :shocked: Fairly expensive performance car as a traffic school donkey. That's it! Time to sell it!  :sad:

P.S. GTIs are getting more common here these days, and Ed30s also.  :sad:

you guys understand why they do it though dont you?

They do the same thing here is Aus. I have seen Subaru WRX's and Mitsubishi EVO's are learner cars - they want to attract people to learn how to drive.

Think about it, if you were 16 or 17 and learning to drive, would you pick the company that has GTi's as learner cars or Toyota Yaris's????

I know what I would choose.
