how do i find what build number it is?
-
You wont untill vw contact its regestured keeper, so you need to get onto them once you have the keys. Looks a good find, any spec??
-
Hey very nice !!!
This is Huddersfield Garage right ?? i seem to recognise the building in the background.
I collected my Pirelli from there 2 weeks ago :jumping:

Nice one mate!
Only picked up my Ed30 last week and absolutely love it!
I've already been on to VW and now have a 3 month wait for my confirmation of build no and plaque.
Enjoy the car - looks awesome. :happy2:
-
Well done mate, I bet you're like a kid at Christmas. I'd love a steelgrey car!
-
Nice :happy2:
Re the build number - I had heard nothing in the 16 months I have had my Edition 30 so emailed their customer services. They replied - and said they are ordered from Germany when people ask !!! As a result and as I have only just requested my plaque I am told there is up to a 3 month wait .... not good !
-
a lot of grey ed 30 are motorpoint imports so you may not even get a plaque , imo its worth looking into , i would nt touch an import :scared:
-
i hope its not an import. ill be ringing them 2morro to make sure it isnt.
-
if its from a VW dealer they should inform you if its an import
absolutely lovely car pal, enjoy, brings back memorys, I had 1 just like it :happy2:
-
Stunning. Excellent choice of colour!! :happy2:

depends on the dealers mate , they dont have to tell you , they are good for dealers cause they pay less for them and retail at normal prices but take one back to p/x and they batter you , find out , normally made for cyprus and places like that
-
if i did a hpi check, would that tell me if it was an import

Where did you get the idea it was an import, thats a very unusual post He says he got it from the same dealer as Rich. :chicken:
Lovely looking motor by the way. :happy2:
-
I thought it was a bit of a negative post, it could have been put a bit more tactful, the poor blokes excited bout his new motor :smiley:
-
i m sorry if this sounds negative but i m talking from personal experience here , i brought a renault from a main dealer and never found out it was an import till i came to p/x it and i lost out big time
-
Whats so bad about an import? Differences?
The car in the flesh is very clean indeed! going to be a lovely addition to your car's past and present Cuz. :happy2:
Steel gray is such a nice colour! :drool:
-

totally understand that you were sharing your knowledge and experience and warning that there is a potential pitfall pal :smiley:, could just have been a bit more subtle :laugh:
-

I can understand that but what makes you think this car is a import other than motorpoint sell grey cars. :laugh:
-
looking very nice :happy2:
-
I have a grey one. Damn sure its not an import. :wink:
-
all the cars are imports :signLOL:
-
Looks great - Happy motoring be warned this forum will encourage you to spend money on modding, detailing and watch's :jumpmove: :jumpmove:
Enjoy
On the import side from a main dealer is very unlikely pretty all is good - From carsupermarkets you have to be careful and they are legally bound to tell you if it is once asked
-
Absolutely stunning motor matey, you will love it! :drool: :wink:
-
Looks good :happy2:
I like grey on the ED30 - SteveP's and Gaz's now written off model are two good examples :smiley:

where are the french jokes!!! the renault imports were cheaper to buy new and had few extra bits, they should tell you though, way out of order, didnt realise you could get posh golf from netto :signLOL:
-
motorpoints ed 30 were only £19.999 new about £2.5 k under vw prices but if you go to p/x it most dealers will offer £2.5 k under the crap book price they would offer on a uk car
i know the feeling us guys get when we re waiting to pick up a new car , ive had loads and would nt want to spoil it for any one , i was just making sure people are aware of what can happen in the shark world of used cars
may be i was a little abrupt, but if it had turned out to be an inport im sure he would have thanked me long term :sad1:
-
the cars not an import :happy2:. thanks for the info guys. shud be picking it up fri nite if i can get there.
-

-
:happy2: great news, you wont be disapointed fella
-
thats great news mate , i know youll enjoy the car cause they are a fantastic car , when you ve been on here a while and re mapped and lowered etc etc etc it ll be an animal :happy2:
hope i did nt put any damper on it mate i just wanted to make you aware of what can happen , after hpi i check all my cars now welcome to ed 30 owners , enjoy :driver:
-

-
didnt put a damper on it fella. i didnt no there was ed 30 imports out there. thought it was just a few normal gtis that were imports. the dealer told me that they dont touch imports. got a weekend of geting it clayed and waxed ready for the trip down to ed38 on fri. :jumpmove:
