Why would they mention Ed30? It's no big change from GTI.. unless you remap it
*faints* :shocked:

Didnt they do the edition30 a while back anyway?

The W12 was a bit of a dog weren't it? It seems as though VW have really just cobbled it together. I know its only a "project" car but even so... they still shouldn't have rushed it through.



W12 was made just to show to GTI crowd at the GTI meeting in Austria. So all kudos to VW

I think Phil was referring to the fact that Jezza said that VW had forgotten to do something for the GTI's 30th, when in actual fact they had done the ED30. :smug:

Oh, I see. Misunderstanding on my part then. I do not watch TV (I do not get Top Gear anyway)

as mentioned ages ago, it looks like a max power Clio V6 gone wong.... :sick:

Great engine, wheels look good and the colour is right for the car....but not much else going for it.

I loved the look of it but hey it dont go round corners! Perhaps they will only make it for the USA! :grin:

Looks far better than a standard Mk5! :smug:
