£16k for a new R32!! :shocked:

Good offer - but can't tempt me out of my ED30 :wink:

16k + 10k for a turbo = Kicka$$ golf (without traction issues, great sound, and dare I say ED30 killingmurdering speed) :lipsrsealed:

Good to see that there will be a few more R32's out there over the next year or so. Might just be my neck of the woods but I very rarely see others about.

btw you can expect to see 27mpg once warm around city. 31mpg if you drive conservatively on motorways. And as low as 16 if you thrashing the pants off it :evil:

slow aernt they lol :evil:

What happened to the one's you won on Fleabay with the red lip?

BTW, I'd have a MK4 over a MK5 all day long!  :wink:

Thats the BBS CH I was referring to in the post  :wink:  The problem is that I am in a bit of limbo at the moment as I am waiting for a decision on a project in the Middle East.  If it goes ahead, I'll be off for at least 2 years and my Edition 30 will go into storage.  I'll find out on 16th November.  If not, I'm going to get modding very quickly  :evil: :evil: :evil:

I like your style Illyun, that'll be two nice Golf's MkV's to have in the garage.   :wink:

No, didn't buy an Ed30 in the end, although at the start of this year I did come pretty close and I had a deposit down on a brand new Candy White one with Xenon's and DSG.... unfortunately when it arrived at the delaers it had paintwork damage on the bonnet and whilst they offered to fix it I really didn't want to spend £24k on a car which had a re-sprayed bonnet.  After much deliberaton I rejected it and the dealer refunded my deposit which was good of them.

I'd like to get a second hand one now and have been looking around PH.com and Autotrader.... there seem to be plenty around so it's just a matter of picking one with a good spec and good price.

I remember that now  :sick:  But then again, it saved you ££££'s  :smug:

i doubt that I would notice any difference in fuel, my GTi round town rarely gets above 27mpg on average, and even less most tankfuls...Sure I have babied it along the motorway and the computer has read 43.3 mpg but who wants to drive like Andrew Sachs ffs.....

I'd love an R32. DBP, DSG, not worried re sat nav, the mfd2 is crap anyway...keep hoping in vein that some poor frustrated r32 owner who is pissed off with the high road tax or something wants a swap with a GTI....some hope eh tee hee.... :rolleyes:

Let the fun begin........Red Gti, full colour coding, DSG, Xenons, Winter pack, Lux pack, Highline, Sat Nav, Sunroof, Leather, Milltek, ABT rear valance, Goodyear F1 Asymmetrics....pescaras :-)
