Hi gang,

It is indeed great news.

The letter from Carron Cusworth at VWUK states the following and I quote:

”I am now in a position to communicate Volkwagen UK’s final decision on customers affected by the Golf GTI Edition 30 over production.

I can confirm that VWUK will be providing owners of the Golf Edition 30 with a plaque as an acknowledgment that the vehicle is a limited edition. Volkswagen is currently sourcing a manufacturer for the plaques and we will again be in touch once they have been produced. However, this could be in up to three or four months’ time. The plaques will be individually numbered to denote your Golf’s number within the limited edition run.

I appreciate this resolution has taken some time to be agreed and apologise for any inconenience caused to you. I would also like to personally apologise again for the Edition 30 overbuild.

I hope this goodwill gesture will go some way to rebuilding the bridge between you and the Brand.”

Yours...... etc


I think you’ll agree that an offical VW apology goes a fair way and the plaques are the icing on the cake.
I’m going to crack open the beers.

Have fun... Hotrod

That's great news! Well done to everyone that wrote in to fight our case 

(p.s. Number 30 would be a good one to have!)

So, who's opening a book to see who gets the lowest number 

Seroiusly though, Good work Hotrod!  Although i dont have an ED30, i would definatly have wanted a plaque.

Well done Hotrod, does anyone know by how much the overrun actually overran ?

Please for you guys.

We didnt have a plaque on our 25th when we got it - wasnt bothered too much, asked the dealer and they didnt seem to bothered either.  I then came across a thread on ukmkivs which gave a contact of a dealer down Cornwall who knew about this and more importantly knew what to do - he checked with VW, agreed one never was issues with the car, a few weeks later a genuine plaque arrived.  It didnt bother me too much as I knew it was a 25th Anni but its nice to have.

Well done Hotrod, does anyone know by how much the overrun actually overran ?

They made 2,300 official UK Edition 30's.

I wonder what will happen to imported ones?
