Candy white edition 30 big future spec!
« on: November 02, 2017, 12:50:40 am »
So I've recently bought a candy white edition 30!

121K on the clock, Me and my mum has only put 500 miles since I got her home, my mum doesn't like auto too much and I'm trying to convince her it's ok and better!! Don't have much time to drive it myself as extremely busy with work and time I finish too tired but after crimbo hopefully that will change!!

Current spec:
5DR DSG, sunroof, MFSW, highline clocks, Candy White, xenons, and the usual standard edition 30 bits
Couple pics when I bought the car:

That ed30 is lovely but I nearly threw up at the fact that you spent 5K on seats

You could have bought another gti for that and not have to share with your mother?

Surely the cars not worth much more than 5k? Why not put that 5k onto the price off the car and buy something better?  :thinking:

Yeah was mad doing that, oh well, you only live once..


I bought the valeos off a guy on Facebook he's name is Ric Broadwith profile pic of him smoking, they were £350 delivered, plug and play . He also owns a page called Mk5 golf veyron modded lights so you can contact him on there.

It's worth at least 8+9k at its currrnt condition and spec, you only live once, I want to enjoy it, my aim is to enjoy it for a year and make it one of the best if not the best mk5 in the country.

Mk5's are still popular and will be for a very long time next year I can easily make my money back from the mods if I don't achieve what I want for the car selling it as a whole.

My wife would have loved that my Ed. 30 had 5 doors like yours!  :grin:

Your future plans sound awesome and you've started really strong with those lavish bucket seats. :evilgrin:

I'll be following your work. :drinking:

You don't have to justify your purchases to anyone mate  :happy2:   It's your money, what ever makes you happy  :smiley:   People think I'm mad for spending £2.2K on coilovers  :grin:

Thing is though, I'm surprised VW sold you complete seats.  I was prepared to buy a pair of Edition 30 front seats from them for mine, but they told me they don't sell complete seats.......only bits of them which you have to assemble yourself!
