 Classic vw oem wheel, i`m a big fan of keeping things nice and simple......... less is more.
 
 i`ve always had the older cars and like the idea of a newer car and better base to concours
- 
				You definitely won't regret it.. I have had three mkv now and edition 30 is much better and makes you more proud to own it  :happy2:
			
- 
				Welcome on board.  :drinking:
 
 The Eddy is a good base from which to build upon, both with aesthetics but especially in the power department.

				Is there a list of optional extras and factory options...? thanks andy

 I think these were additional options
 
 - Bi-Xenon headlamps includes Winter Pack I.e. Headlamp washers + heated washer jets
 - Ipod prep in centre armrest
 - Tinted glass from B-Pillar back
 - Highline multifunction computer
 - Metallic paint
 - Cruise control
 - Multi Function Steering wheel
 - Reverse Parking Sensors
 - Sound Pack  (10 speaker upgrade)
 - Convenience Pack rain sensors coming home lights etc
 - Storage Pack - storage compartment under the seat
 - Luxury Pack - Reverse activated mirrors etc
 
 I think that's it but if I've missed anything someone will be along to add to the list.

				Less is definitely more. Stunning selection of previous VW's.

 Go drive a remapped DSG ed30 and ask yourself the same question  :popcornsoda:

 What was you expecting ?
- 
				Drive a DSG model you will soon change your mind

				Thought the pick up would be better especially at higher speeds... Think a mapped one would do the trick....my old mk2 golf 20v always put a smile on my face and fun to drive,I was hoping for the same with an edition....
 
 Anyone manchester way with a mapped one....??? :driver:
- 
				As above, drive a mapped dsg. Mine is fantastic, before it would struggle to get away from a uk spec dc2 integra now it'll piss all over it, faster than my 300hp 200sx for fun. 
 
 I would never buy a manual one. Gearbox feels like its from a Massey Fergusson.

 I like my tractor.
 
 Once it's mapped, uprated the clutch and added all the bushes/brackets for a short shifter it's awesome car the manual Eddy. Shame your not closer Butler, you'd be more than welcome to try mine.

				So the stage one map does make that much difference...? loved the interior....defo silve my first choice followed by steel grey :rolleye:

				My bro in law has a standard Leon Cupra, there is a very noticeable difference between his standard and mine with stage 1.
