Title: New ED30 owner in Thirk North Yorks....
Post by: editionjgg on August 27, 2012, 08:35:43 pm: Hi People..... :happy2:

Just bought a edition 30 to use for business mileage, fun and towing :surprised:

I like it a lot although struggling to get real comfy at the moment. Want to do a few things lke BBS CH or LM style wheel change, lowered springs & exhaust / intake mods. If anyone can help out here or recommend / stick a couple of pics my way I will be very happy :jumpmove:

Thanks Graham

Only got one or two pics to be honest. Struggling to get comfy in it though, knee's hitting under steering column or to far away in the arms if I adjust it. I get it somewhere near and the Mrs moves he seat to use it :indifferent:

Will need to register with image shack or something to get some pics up :happy2:

I was just wondering what the tow bar might be used for. I have a dislike for caravans myself :wink:

Post by: editionjgg on August 29, 2012, 03:20:02 pm: Ha ha no caravan guys.....

I bought the golf as a tow car for my LHD Lupo 1.8t race car. I am entering into the VAG Trophy next year and wanted a red VAG towcar that I could use for work and was a little bit quirky at the same time. Looking at fitting H&R springs, Miltek no res cat back, ITG open induction, 19" Dare LM wheels and revo stage 1. Then a few graphics to both car and race car ( Not chavvy ones, just a few small ones )
