Hi all,

Long time reader but first time topic starter. Thought it was about time i shared my Tornado Red GTI Edition 30 (no 1411)

Bought it back in April of this year,replacing a standard GTI, and loving every minute of it. Quick enough for now, along with being a great long distance cruiser. The DSG is absolutely fantastic also. Factory spec includes DSG, Sunroof, Electric Folding Heated mirrors. The depo headlights were fitted before i bought the car, along with H and R springs, H and R front and rear ARB and a Whiteline Anti-Lift kit. It goes round corners so much better than my previous GTi.

Ive added a few bits in my ownership, including LED Numberplate bulbs, Red footwell lights, Pioneer App Radio 4 to name a few.

Plans for the car is to get the cambelt, waterpump and the air con sorted and then set about slowing modifying it. First will be R32 or similar front brakes along with new pads/discs for the rear. Then stage 1 and so on.

Look forward to seeing what people think biggrin

Looks good! Don't think I've ever seen a 5 door Ed30 before.

Great car (fellow tornado red ed30 owner) I've had mine for just over 2 years and have loved every second of it. The DSG really makes these special.

Enjoy it!

Lovely looking car. I had a standard golf gti in the same colour with dsg and it was one of the best cars I've owned, unfortunately I had to sell it back in March. frown
