Like I say, the Cupra isn't a million miles away from the concept anyway. So i'll be interested to see what else they do to make the Bocanegra that bit different other than the black mush.

Most of the concept should be achievable the only aspect i do not see happening is the headlights, they would not be deemed legally acceptable for road use.

The rest would come down to costings, and what they think they can sell it for.

I do believe I'm starting to like that colour :ban: lol. Would be nice if they could follow through on the light design etc, if not, how have BMW been doing it so long? Oooh... good reason not to there....

We'll have to wait and see, maybe as Audi-esque LED running lights alongside the normal headlights, but the headlights would still have to legally project the required light.

Concept cars have no real legal requirements placed upon them, most of the time they are nothing more than rolling models that look good and capture the imagination.

New lights = new tooling

Reckon different wheels (maybe) and a black front bumper bit.

And then realise you're a few weeks too late

Not forgetting the lush interior, will it make the accountant's cut!!

They went some way to emulating it with the Cupra but will the Bocanegra take it a step further.

I fear the most threatening thing to the Bocanegra will be the bean counters, but I'm still expecting something quite nice.

cool, some SEAT content to put up on www.Speedhunters.com if its exciting as its VW Group Month. Hopefully showcasing a couple of SCN cars


there's me thinking SEAT might follow the Exeo/A4 with a SEAT version of the R8 :cartman:

:cartman:

Twittering with SEAT as we speak, it's 25 years of the Ibiza so that maybe a good story to tell. Apparently there is a rally Ibiza outside the show halls too. Hoping SEAT or someone has the good sense to take some pics. ;)
