Title: Finally picked up edition 30
Post by: rmstu on November 19, 2011, 09:32:31 pm
Hi all well, as some of you may have read I was stuck between Audi S3 or edition 30, well as title suggests I had a 450 mile round trip and just arrived home in a tornado red edition 30,
I'm totally impressed and completey overwhelmed by the car, now I have come from a V8 mustang so you could say I had high expectations and the eddie has more than impresses me, the car has 307bhp and wow does it shift but also returning a healthy 33mpg on the 200+ miles on the way home and I was far from driving miss daisy.
Car is 2008
9400 miles
Miltek exhaust
Vw racing springs
Amd remap
Autolights + autowipers
Reverse sensors
6 cd change ipod connector.
Panel filter.
Xenons.
 Really happy with it, need a Cai now and maybe sports cat.

I'll get some pics up when laptop decides to work as I'm on my phone.
Bye for now.
Stu

Ps I'm from warrington.

That's the one mate can't believe it, its in fantastic condition and loads of extras aswell.
All I have been doing since Friday drive drive I no I keep saying but its a awesome car alround car And great with the extra power from remap with Amd.

The build number is 2242 I think ill have a look tomoz.

One question I love the Amd remap just how smooth it is and progressive, but ill live next to awesome gti so when I go for a sports cat and Cai ill use these bit they use revo OS this remap as smooth or can be made to be .
Thanks.
