Title: Anyone selling their Edition 30 ?
Post by: subaru26675 on September 15, 2009, 07:36:04 pm
Hi folks,
This is my first post on your forum so go easy on me  :laugh:
I have had a string of quick cars, in the past, mostly Impreza Sti's, however my last car was a saab 9-3 Aero 2.8 V6 turbo chipped up to near 300 horsepower (quick enough !)
The saab is gone and I am now looking for a nice edition 30 in probably any colour apart from black (to hard to keep clean  :grin: )
Is anyone on here thinking of selling theirs ? I have had a look on PH and autotrader but not too much doing just now.

Thanks,
Kevin

Hi there,
Yeah, have seen this one, unfortunately its in black, beautiful when clean but so hard to keep them that way ! :grin:
My favourite colour for the ed 30 is silver but also love it in grey and red.

What do you guys think of this one that is on Pistonheads, seems to be going for a bit of a bargain ?  Not 100% sure about the bluefin ?

^^^Welcome mate, the one on piston heads looks great  :star: Don't worry about the Bluefin remap, a lot of people have them and superchips have been into the chipping and mapping game the longest out of anyone. Maybe 20 years plus now.

I have the stage 1 bluefin on my car and its great. If you dont like it you can take it off, get it reset for a small fee and sell the handset on anyway.

But that red Ed30 looks the part  :drool:

Thanks matey  :happy2:

Can anyone tell me if the car (while chipped) can be run on normal unleaded or will it need the expensive stuff ??

Thanks
Kevin

Yes it can, but to be honest you are better spending the extra on good quality fuel, V-Power or BP Ultimate, Tesco 99 etc. It will be better for your car in the long run and the higher octane will give better power results with the remap.

It will only work out at £2.50-£3.00 extra per tank over standard unleaded.

This has been for sale for quite a few months now, does look good and good price, can't understand why it hasn't sold for that money.
