Title: Hello; new GTI Edition 30 owner
Post by: oHUTCHYo on July 13, 2014, 08:51:51 am
Hi all,

Thought I would introduce myself.  I've just placed a deposit on a silver, 2007 GTI Edition 30.

I was attracted to the GTI Edition 30 after having a whole selection of performance cars and now, as I get older, wanting to find that perfect balance of comfort and performance.  My last Impreza STI was running 380BHP and without a doubt the pinnacle of any performance car I'll ever own, sadly though it was the 90/10 split - the 10% driving it how it was meant to be driving was pure heaven, the other 90% was the daily grind of driving to work and down the shops.  Decided it just wasn't something I could sustain.

Looking forward to engaging with everyone on the forums  :happy2:
