Regardless, those Michelin decals are purely horrible. I'd take a stock car/look any day over that specific car in the vid.

Each to their own I guess, that's what makes the world wonderful.

Also...I will be putting new rims and tyres on my clubsport when it arrives.

I was wondering if there are people that are interested in buying "almost new" Pirelli P-zero tyres off the stock rims? 225 35 19?

I am thinking of selling the "new-ish" stock tyres and putting the stock rims into storage? Any thoughts or ideas?

Hi guys, I'm going to look at the ED40 this weekend. Is 52K drive away for the DSG with roof reasonable? Has anyone been able to get a good deal on finance? I'm hoping to get a 12 month loan with no balloon with a 10-15K deposit.

That's an awesome deal, best I got was $55k with roof. The finance with VW can probably be beaten tho. Just make sure you read all the dets, fees etc.

On another note... anyone know German...lol

Where are all the 40yrs? I drive from one side of Sydney to the other almost every day and have been on the lookout since I put my order in but haven't spotted a single one, I've become quite the golf trainspotter but still no 40yrs. Must be quite a few still to be delivered, like mine. I've gotta say it does make me feel like it will be a little special when I finally pick it up.

Pure thought hypothesis but say

500 across Australia
-100 manuals
-100 to 200 or so maybe that haven't been delivered / still at dealerships .
- Maybe 2/3 of remaining delivered outside of Syd Metro ?
- Maybe 1/3 are probably secondary cars for enthusiasts sitting mostly in garages

So maybe 50 out of ~3 million cars in Sydney

Keep looking

How many Wolfsburgs were there? I see plenty of these. Seems these were snatched up quicker. Most people will go for an R before even considering an ED40. It's for pure enthusiasts.
