Perhaps they're going for a nice clean £10k profit margin?   :laugh: :laugh: :grin: :grin:       :sick:

Hmmm, because low mileage and that often over used word in the used car market - rare.

I much prefer the look of the Edition 30 over the Pirelli, but that is one super minty fresher than fresh el minto example, so someone will pay it I'm sure!

I thought Pirelli Edition only came with DSG. Wouldn't have believed it had it not been for the photos. Maybe that's why it's called rare.

Had my first look on the Pirelli Edition register:

 :evilgrin:Samb377 - DSG - Black - Essex
TomGTI - Manual - Reflex Silver - Norfolk
Nutey - Manual - Reflex Silver - Northants
Burbs22 - Manual - Black - 3 Door - Surrey/Sussex (Gatwick)
Gixerben - Manual - Black - 3 Door - Norfolk
A1SGP-manual-black-3door- southampton
GtiPirelli - Manual - Black - 5 Door - Leicestershire
Tal001- Manual - Black - Birmingham
Pirelli Paul - Manual - Black - Herts
GTI-Pirelli - Manual - Black - 3 Door -
Pirelli08- manual - Silver - 3 door - Cambs
Chris08pirelli-manual-black-3 door-central scotland

OK, maybe not so rare. :signLOL:

Yep, manual is 'rare' on the Edition 30 and seemingly popular on the Pirelli!

A pink diamond is rare, a VW Golf certainly is not  :smiley:   If we're talking rare MK5 Golfs, then surely the GTI W12-650 is the rarest of them of all, with only 1 ever made!

This car is easily worth £10-£11K in my imo, but £15K is stretching it a bit far.  Same old story of speculative dealers chancing it until they cause the car bubble to burst again.
