Ive done the cambelt & water pump at Jkm during my ownership..
I'm not 100% sure but I think I'm the 3rd or 4th owner
It was standard when I brought the ed30,I modified it to stg2+ with dsg remap
By rtech in lecister...should still have the dsg map on the car,& WALK too
The ed30 came with the rns310,eddie NL supplied & fitted the rns510

Hi mate...I brought it from a non Vw dealer in Wales,I Px from a Bmw m3Nice one mate I really appreciate your help! Did it still have the hpfp or intercooler on it aswel or did you sell them? I'm in two minds whether to buy it as its coming up on a hpi check at 105k miles in march this year but it was on 62k last year he said it was on kph and not mph and they changed it back I can't imagine that anyone would have done 50k in a year

thought I might try to track previous owners starting with you, any chance you can tell me the garage you PX it too? Might ring them to see if they have the next owner on system!Sent from my Letv X500 using Tapatalk

Hi mate...I remember when I Px against a bmw 335d at a Citroen garage it had 57-59k..that's back in 2013
I remember the Citroen sales guy said they gonna put it up on in a auction
...62k does sound a bit cheesy
Post by: Martin_jk on April 02, 2016, 10:16:19 pm
Ah ok mate no problem thanks again you have been a massive help! Going to give dvla a ring next week to check the history on the mileage and previous MOTs then I'll go from there :)Hi mate...I brought it from a non Vw dealer in Wales,I Px from a Bmw m3Nice one mate I really appreciate your help!

If you want more info call Citroen dealer in Weston super mare
& ask for kevin Macintosh(the sales guy I was dealing with)
Post by: Martin_jk on April 03, 2016, 08:41:00 am
If I where you,I would think twice on buying it as I don't believe it's done less then 3-4K after I sold it...Yeah ino it does seem strange doesn't it! Although Previous MOTs are saying it was on 53k in July 2013 then 59k in 2014 and then 62k in 2015 & now on 65k! The garage seems to have very good reviews too, I'll definitely give Citroen a call though thanks for the info mate!

Always good to check, however since i have had my Golf i have only covered 7k since nov 2011. Due to being deployed 6 months of the year, every year and how far i live from work. Also for longer journeys we use the wifes smax. :happy2:Yeah definitely mate, these are the kind of car people like to keep the mileage off aren't they! I'm sure they will soon become more of a collectors car especially the edition 30! That's why I want one :)

24/10/14 - 41392 miles
21/10/15 - 42985 miles
As of today 3/4/16 - just ticked over 44000 miles today
So 2600 Miles in the last 18 Months or 144 Miles per Month on average, Totally genuine. Prior to that it was doing 10K per Year.
Post by: Martin_jk on April 03, 2016, 10:36:11 pm
The mileage or lack of could be genuine, My Golf R has covered literally a few thousand miles since 2014. The previous owner hardly used it other than at weekends...Yeah it looks pretty genuine on the MOT history if not then someone has done 45k in a year which i don't think is possible!Wow that really is low! Will be a nice low mileage example in the future if you ever come to selling it!

My milage could look suspect with the amounts of time I spend away with work and little mileage I've being doing, then SORN for 6-8 months at a time if deployed, usually effecting MOT dates. All above board though! 2008 - 76k

Hi mate,have you seen the car yet?Hi mate, I'm going to go and have a look on Friday this week :) spoke to him today and he's going to ring dvla to clear up the mileage issue that's coming up on the hpi check, he said its due to the auctions messing up and not noticing the mileage was on km not miles! I also rang dvla myself and the mileage all adds up perfect with the Mot history so seems legit. Can't wait to hopefully seal the deal, the car looks awesome! Was there any other mods you left on the car Btw mate? Or was it just the suspension mods & dsg remap?

There where quite a few stone chips on the bonnet & parking dents to both sides of the doors when I sold it...is it sorted out?Yes mate looks like the bonnet must have had a respray as its not got any stone chips on it now, and there is only one small dent in the rear arch looks like its from a door opening on it! Thats all I've noticed so far :) splitters scuffed underneath due to being lowered but not too noticeable luckily!

Haha, nice one. Yeah I was going to wave to you but had to keep explaining to the missus why I was so chuffed I saw your car and then you had zoomed off :happy2:
Looked a very clean motor and see it is stage 2+ so must go like a rocket. See it is lowered, is it 30mm lowered as I have some H&R springs coming tomorrow for a 30mm drop and getting fitted in the next week with my new wheels :laugh:.
Just have a map on mine but came with the car so not sure what it is or who did it. I think I have only seen one other ED30 around that are and was a silver one.
I have not got a full exhaust, just a backbox delete for now but love the sound and look but it was a hard choice changing the ED30 that much but went for it.

Yeah you did but had your reg by then and was pretty sure I saw that reg on a post on here and bingo :wink:. Get it on a rolling road or check boost and bhp with VCDS, that is what I did as have a clone cable. Gives you a rough idea but not accurate. Your car sat very nice with those springs. Not getting mine on until next week as getting done with my DSG service. Yeah I love the ED30 over the R32 for everything apart from the rear R32 looks awesome. Eventually I am going to get a full system but happy with this for now. Cheers, got some rainsport 3's coming Wednesday so will see about getting the wheels on if that F1 place at riverside can stick the tyres on alloys cheap enough.
The silver one I saw was up by the train station at the lights so could have come from Boots. I may sour the car parks as seem there may be a loads at Boots haha. I work at Boots in D90, where you based?

Your new wheels are really smart btw I love the colour!@Martin_jk (http://www.mk5golfgti.co.uk/forum/index.php?action=profile;u=10193) - Hi mate, saw you coming out of Boots Head Office Nottingham today and I followed behind you for a a bit until you went left at one of the roundabout.Hi mate, how's it going? Yeah that was me :) I saw you too was going to give you a wave but was a bit awkward being in front! Thanks mate appreciate it, yours looks really nice too! Reds definitely the best colour isn't it! I saw you before I bought the car a few weeks ago, noticed you have the r32 exhaust looks amazing! Which exhaust system you got mate?
I was in the red ED30 behind you, car looked nice :happy2:

Haha, nice one. Yeah I was going to wave to you but had to keep explaining to the missus why I was so chuffed I saw your car and then you had zoomed off :happy2:
Looked a very clean motor and see it is stage 2+ so must go like a rocket. See it is lowered, is it 30mm lowered as I have some H&R springs coming tomorrow for a 30mm drop and getting fitted in the next week with my new wheels :laugh:.
Just have a map on mine but came with the car so not sure what it is or who did it. I think I have only seen one other ED30 around that are and was a silver one.
I have not got a full exhaust, just a backbox delete for now but love the sound and look but it was a hard choice changing the ED30 that much but went for it.
Yeah you did but had your reg by then and was pretty sure I saw that reg on a post on here and bingo :wink:. Get it on a rolling road or check boost and bhp with VCDS, that is what I did as have a clone cable. Gives you a rough idea but not accurate. Your car sat very nice with those springs. Not getting mine on until next week as getting done with my DSG service. Yeah I love the ED30 over the R32 for everything apart from the rear R32 looks awesome. Eventually I am going to get a full system but happy with this for now. Cheers, got some rainsport 3's coming Wednesday so will see about getting the wheels on if that F1 place at riverside can stick the tyres on alloys cheap enough.
The silver one I saw was up by the train station at the lights so could have come from Boots. I may sour the car parks as seem there may be a loads at Boots haha. I work at Boots in D90, where you based?

Haha I'm impressed, you have a good memory! :) yeah I definitely need to do that, need to get VCDS I think! Where did you get your clone cable from mate? It does sit nicely and is still practical too, I have dan930 to thank for the suspension set up! Not long till you get them on now thn mate, where you going for your dsg service if you don't mind me asking? I want to get mine done too! Yeah ed30 over r32 all day! Yeah I've heard good things about that f1 auto centre never used them myself but a friend of mine has. Let me know how you get on with the rain sport 3s too! Haha yeah boots is a big place isn't it! My girlfriend works in D90 so normally pick her up, I was just using to cut through today though as I work on lilac grove which is at the back entrance at boots!Haha sorry mate I just snook through those traffic lights before they went to red! Yeah its rapid pulls so hard! Not actually sure wether it's still got stage 2+ running on it or not I know it has the dsg remap though, it does feel like it's been remapped tho! Yeah it's lowered 30mm and has front and rear arbs too! Perfect height in my opinion, bet you can't wait to get them fitted can you?

haha, was my missus really as made here remember it. got my clone cable off ebay, search for VCDS 12.12 cable. works perfectly for me but only runs on 12.12 version of software so cannot up date it. But still does everything and has saved me money. Shark Perfomance VAG specialist in Mansfield, I am booked in for the 25th to do DSG, spring fitting and rear wheel bearing broke. Yeah people rave about the Rainsports 3's so had to get them. Yeah it is massive mate, ah know lilac grove, used to come out that beeston exit and have uses the garage up there a few times.
