Hi all

Just wanted some advice on what to get next after my Leon Cupra face/lifted model?

At the moment i've had her Revo'd Stage 1, ITG Induction kit fitted, H&R Springs and a tailgate spoiler fitted but this is my 2nd leon in about 3-3 half years and now starting to get bored of her

Looked at Focus RS500's, Evo X, Subaru STi's, M3's, RS4's and now Golf R's but nothing seem's to say yes that's the one any advice on this is most welcome

Cheer's Ryan

Tough choice Ryan. I've always wondered what next. I'd love an rs4 just to have owned a v8, but a bitch to run id imagine. Evo would be nice, not sure on a scooby, not as good as they used to be either. The cupra IMO is a hard one to top without spending a fortune.

The new wrx sti is good but with a bit of modding would be amazing.
Iv had a old scoob just sold it acually and the leon fwd is just weird to me. Wheel spin.... lol fun tho. Will be great fun test driving all those cars lol :) I'm very jealous.

Nearly there then! I'm sure it's worth the wait.

Have there been problems with dp damage on stg2+? I'm soon to have my system changed for a TBE in the next week or so.
 
Out of that list the Evo X eg a 360 seems the best value. You can find 2 year old ones (with warranty left) for around £20k....I would have thought the others (apart from the STI) would cost a fair bit more for a similarly aged car. They are a great drive out of the box and 400bhp is achievable easily and cheaply.

However it depends what your priorities are in choosing a car and the only real way to tell which one of those ticks all the boxes for you is to test drive as many as possible....might be difficult though with some of them.

I have heard if you don't do mounts you can crack the DP due to excessive engine movement. I know a guy who had to replace his DP 3 times because of that till he switched out mounts and never had the issue again.
