Title: New Ed30 owner
Post by: RobSCC on March 26, 2012, 10:36:36 pm

Hi

Just picked up a lovely red ed30 with DSG - very pleased so far
My other car is a heavily modded focus rs mk2 and the golf is to be my daily driver
It's being fully detailed by heavenly on Thursday - but what are the must have mods ???

Cheers
Rob
