Sounds a little silly, but aren't most ED30 56/07 plate, as the original GTI was launched in mid 1976, so a 04 plate is two years too early? Replica maybe..?

Good shout. It's just I'm a VW nerd, I studied the history for a presentation at work as part of my management development so I'm pretty clued into the history. Re-read my first post and it's proper keyboard warrior like! :signLOL:
