How many came to the UK?  And I thought the supercharged R32 was the rarest Mk5. :surprised:

It was an optional extra approved by VW: http://www.pistonheads.com/classifieds/used-cars/volkswagen/golf-r32-r/vw--abt-volkswagen-golf-r32-2007-370hp/1055228 - So probably not technically made by VW.  Bet it's a belter though.

I remember this from years ago.  If I recall correctly it is a k03 with a stage 1 map on it.

As above, I read (somewhere) that it was K03 GTI with a map on it.

Cheers, not much sense in buying it over the ED30 or Pirelli then  :stupid:

Think it came out before edition 30 was hatched.

I disagree, as the one in the link should be one of the last mk 5's made and is from 08, ED30 being from 07 and 08

Mental.

I thought I kept relatively in touch with the forum and VW world then 9 years after the MK5 was launched, I read these articles  :grin:  :chicken:

Just uping this topic, the engine code for a Edition 240 should be a BWA?

No one knows but likely a BWA if it was a 2008 car.
