White edition 30   :drool:  :love:. Looks great, need to wash mine now after my 200 odd mile motorway blast yesterday  :driver: it's covered in dead bugs. :grin:
Is that the standard exhaust ?, looks good.

Car looks good, and sat in some nice scenery. One question have you dressed your honeycomb grill with something to get it gloss black?

Looks great  :smiley: Candy White's the best colour but I'm biased of course!

The alloys you get on the ED30's are some of the best VW have ever produced on the GTI's. They just seem to suit the car better than any other imo.

Get them springs done first mate  :happy2:  H&R's and Eibachs have roughly the same look= which is amazing   :laugh:
