Title: New ED30 Driver here...
Post by: courtster on May 23, 2009, 12:54:18 pm
Hi guys - great forum you have here!

I've been looking for somewhere to lay my cap since I inherited a Reflex Silver ED30 last week as my latest company car.  It's a May 07 car and has just celebrated it's 2nd birthday.  We keep our cars for 3 years so I hope to have a very fun 12 months...

First thing I need to do is get hold of my plaque... Not the easiest job as the V5 is at the lease company and is in their name... The car is booked in at VW on Tuesday to sort the aircon so I'll see if they can assist me.

Here's a few pics after I spent ages cleaning it today...

It's got 40k on it, and bear in mind it's not mint as it's been hacked about really, but it's great to have a desirable company car.  My last car was a new shape Civic.  Pretty anonymous once you get past the funky dash...  It's great to get back in a VAG too.  I've had so many Golf's in my time I've lost count  :happy2:

I get the option to buy it at the end of the lease, normally at bottom book prices.  I'll see how it goes...
