Cupra R gone Mk2 Hello

[Carr20vt]

Hi Just a quick hello been a memeber for yrs but don't get on here much, Kids! Well after two yrs of the Ibiza Cupra and three from the Cupra R thought i'd buy the Mk2 (30th Pressie). Picked her up today 57 plate 2.5k on the clock and with REVO both other cars also had REVO. Woow so happy. Stunning car with power and grip unlike the R (loved her tho). Was going to but an Edition 30 but after the test drive the Cupra was so much better IMO. More for less so to speak. Will try and get some pics up soon. Cheers.

Nice one mate. Any more mods planned?

 

[Carr20vt]

No not yet, some rear spacers maybe, anyone recommend some? Still had big smile on my face today, little ones quote of the day "Daddy's car is fast", telling everyone

Very nice mate. Really like the front bumper but I'm still not too sure about the rear bumper.

See your into the detailing too.

Nice car mate..................and very tempted myself!!

Did you buy it from a dealer,and if so,did they Revo it?

Which dealer was it,as i'm not too far from you (South Wales aren't you?)

What sort of power is it now?

Also,being cheeky,how much was it as is?

 

[DOLBY]

lovely couple of cars mate..
is the new cupra really as fast and grippy as everyone is saying?...if they are i may have to book meself a test drive and see....either a cupra or im holding out for the focus RS...

only reason i asked was because seat sport didnt make this car did they?..or so i was lead to believe...

 

[Carr20vt]

Cheers guys the kit does grown on you.
Hey my garage is Aladdins cage got everything can find nothing
Yes love my PC, could spend days on the R and not get 100% the results i wanted but spend half day on the 307 and perfect Frustrating.

This Cupra was not made by SEAT Sport, grip and handling is great compared to the R but neither as much fun as an old Revo'd Ibiza i owned yrs ago

aladdin had a cave didnt he? no cage to speak of!! lol

On VAG paint you need 4inch cutting pads, Menz powergloss or Megs #83 and patience to stand a chance of doing it right.

Peugeot paints pretty soft so easier to work on.

Best thing for VAG paints a rotary.

Yes use 4" with SFX 1&2. RMG & CMW.
As you say VAG paint is hard compared to the Pug.
Would love a rotary but guess no need for it now and not sure i got the skill for it ATM.

congrats, looks like a really nice motor.

Nice car mate, that kit is interesting as it looks like the K1 kit but the rear pipes are not the same as the K1. I like that alot!
