I've got black R32 and metallic grey is another really nice colour..............5 door is worthwhile and easier to sell I think........leather is nice but I think the seat upgrade is also good..........Sat Nav is good but sometimes a bit confusing

I saw the ED30, VERY tempting but as children will be on the way soon :smiley: it has to be a 5 door :sad:

Was the ED 30 available with a full leather interior?  I did have cloth once but im not the most carefull and it staines easier than leather.

Half leather (on the bolsters but not the cushions). If you're worried about stains, have you thought about a can of scotchguard?

By the way, the seats look better in my opinion in the ED30 than full leather. The GTI fabric is really brilliant - very much worth your while finding out for yourself.

Went to the local dealer yesterday...lots of ED30's!!  Unfortunatly i have been given strict instructions by my wife that (in her words) 'your not buying a car with a kilt for a seat!!'  So looks like i will have to get the GTI std...  Ive booked myself in for a test drive on Thurday with a manual and a DSG :grin:

Once i eventualy get used to the power (i am coming up from a 1.6 Focus) and suggestions on re maps?  Superchips offer one for £600 and gives about 91BHP (on the Ed30 with super)

Any helkp would be usefull!!
