Look forward to seeing this Trev
I'll have a blast down to see you once I've got it.  Yours is looking good, especially now it's been lowered. :evilgrin:

Went to the golf anniversary thing in milton keynes a while ago.

Got to sit in either the clubsport S or the ed40 - whatever it was it was very nice. Seats are amazing!

Same here, that's where I first saw it and got to sit in it.

Absolutely stunning piece of kit.

Hehe, yeah it was all wrapped up, fresh off the truck, with protectors and allsorts stuck allover it.
Might ask if I can keep the steering wheel cover for mine, in case I have to drive with dirty hands, keep the suede steering wheel nice!
The Clubsport S, were really nice, but if you tap the doors, or bonnet or roof its like a drum as there is absolutely no isnulation or sound deadening on the pannels. didn;t sound like a VW, more a 1980s Yugo!
But I guess the weight savign helps with the laptimes!
Also wouldn;t fancy the semi-slick tyres and 130PS FWD in this weather!!  :driver:

Nice!!! I do like them in White, shows of the black Clubsport highlights and reg GTI highlights the best, but I went for red, 3 door like you but manual and Brescia wheels, TechPack, rear camera, heated seats and carnet thingy (but I'm not 100% sure what that is\does).
Wow you're a reall collector! I've got a ED30, wish I could keep it to have both at the same time!

Cheers guys!

Use Nitrile/Latex gloves instead of a cover on the steering wheel. Probably safer.

Gone but not forgotten :-)
