Redgo: GOLF35 Spotted

Spotted a red 35 Edition in Eastwood yesterday with the sleeper number plate: GOLF35

Drove my friend's 35 around Albert Park last night. Oh man... what a car.. feels so solid around the corner.. Love the rumble of the engine.. Raspy and deep. (Note: I'm currently driving a corolla, so yes, it's a big big step up - but I did try an MY11 golf a few weeks back and the difference is night and day!)

Great car.. Can't wait to get my Jetta even more now!

Car rated the Ed35 quite highly in the latest sports car under 50k GBP

I read between the lines and I suspect they liked the Cayman R more if not for the price.

ps 50k GBP gets you a Cayman R!!!?? REALLY!!??

Geez, how much is it here?

[Finance_Analyst]

As a tech nerd, I love the Cayman (aka Coxster) but hate the looks (Boxster looks better). They are about $180k here, I'd rather have an Audi RS5 which makes a rumble from its big V8 to die for... Or a 2008 911 Carrera S. Or a 2002 Ferrari 360 Spider. Coxster is still a Coxster.......

I have a feeling that Aussie mags must be bribed by Renault Australia as every comparision (read latest Top Gear) has the Megane RS250 beating the GTI or ED35. In the UK, they don't even rate..... I guess Renault need to bribe as they hardly sell any Meganes but a truck load of GTIs.....

There's a black 35 still available at Brookvale

Second hand Edition 35 for sale? I don't think so.

Unless they removed the wheels and slapped detroits on (I doubt it) I think this seller is confused about the car they've won, and the price they should be getting (49k for a second-hand stock gti and next to no options)

It's definitely not an Edition 35. I reckon seller is a little confused.

I reckon seller is a little confused.

I'd say dodgy.

Still available

There's a white 35 manual for sale on showroom floor at DVG Melville in Perth. Saw it this week. No budging on price as they will 'sell it anyway'. Nice. Wheels fussy.

Maybe it's time to budge

I think you might a little premature in announcing the total rejection of manuals after all the Australian preference for automatics (in whatever form or configuration) has been around for a long time.

[brimway]

For me, I would love to have one of each

yes i suppose we live in traffic jams and very few pol want to shift gears. but i agree, on an open road, cant beat manual....

although who can resist the dsg 'farting'?
