Title: Edition 30 Newbie !
Post by: Daleek9 on April 18, 2012, 08:30:59 pm

Alright guys,

New to these parts. Came from a 400bhp Evo 8 so a little bit of a change :)

Had the odd VW but always been a Jap fella until this golf! Not sure I'll go back now.. Never been so comfortable with a bit of power to keep me happy!

The car is a 2007 ED30 in grey. R32 stoppers. Revo stage 1. Miltek Cat back. Dblias Intake system. Genuine BBS CK's 19x8

30k miles and every optional extra you can think of aswell which is nice.

Ill get a build thread up shortly. Look forward to spending a bit of time in the VAG scene

Dale.

Welcome, i came from JAP scene but i would go back for the pure power ;)...

However the VW are very good cars, subtle and comfortable! 

Get stage2+ and you'll enjoy her more.

Welcome along Dale. Sounds like you've already got a nice car there and an ED30 as well! BBS CK's are a great choice on an Eddy, OEM++.
Pics??

Looks great, BBS CK's really set it off!!! Is it manual/dsg. Looks like the one that was on pistonheads a few weeks ago, old forum members car?

Lovely looking ED30, Dale! Colour is gorgeous and the wheels set it off a treat. Which wheels are you swapping the CK's for? I've had a couple of sets on mine, one of my very fave BBS wheels. Welcome to the forum!  :happy2: Paula xx

Thanks for the comments! :) It's a manual  :happy2:

Going for something with a bit of dish or possible some Aphards

All tyres a spot on around 6-7mm on all problys more on rears
Falken tyres, I'd be willing to ship at your cost and arrangements. Would rather they were picked up really.

They aint cheap! If your seriously interested give me an email @ dale10ellis10@hotmail.com

Got plenty close up pictures I can email you.

Thanks
Dale.

Very good looking Ed30 dude. CK's are the dogs  :happy2:
Very similar touches to mine so big respect  :party:

The shot from the rear - I assume that's edited and not a lacking paint job on the rear bumper?  :laugh:

Thanks man!

CK's are lovely and best wheels for ED30 but going for a slightly different look this season.

Haha yeah, iPhone editing app messes with the colour but sometimes can look good. Paintwork is absolutly amazing. About 5 layers of wax and not a scratch on the car  :grin:
