Well! sold the Cupra today to a lad on the Shetland Islands...

its a really sad day because i loved that car so much but just couldn't afford it.
it was on 142k when i sold it, and still ran nice!

part exchanged it for a 106 quiksilver with a vtr engine. i wanted something a bit cheaper to run. and a bit more fun on twisty roads.
already noticed that its a lot better on petrol, which is a good sign!

i basically just wanted to say thanks to everyone who has helped me since buying the cupra in october 07. always got a quick answer :)

so thanks everyone! and i'll be sticking around here because to be honest, its easily the best forum i'm a member of.

i will be back in a cupra when funds allow. but for now, i'll enjoy the nippy handling of the 106.

take care everyone! :)

it is a super drive to be honest. had it off the clock on the way back from scotland, avoiding the speed cameras lol.
feels very stable at speed, and once you come to a corner, its in a class of its own!
only mods to do are HIDs and aero wipers. then possibly a new induction kit.
its got uprated shafts, gti brakes/interior. back seats are out and already rear wiper has been removed haha!
its definately growing on me.. but its no cupra!

mines gone too finally, unlike you i'm happy to see mine gone for ever!

in the last 8 months i had plenty of issues and it still needed a new cv and wheelbearing, 2 rear tyres and tax at the end of the month. Just drove my new car home and i love it. much better made, alot quicker as standard, better condition inside and out and ofcourse...gotta love vtec ;)
