Just sold my Leon Cupra so we're now going to have 2 Alteas on the driveway. The family car is a 2014 Altea XL 1.6 CR TDi Copa SE DSG, and my one is a late 2008 2.0 TSi Freetrack 4. I pick it up tomorrow and it's being remapped on Saturday.

250bhp 4WD Altea should be pretty entertaining. Looking forward to modding this one :)

Should hopefully put just as much of a smile on your face as the LC! I saw your for sale just recently, the car looked fantastic and someone has had a bargain!

Thanks Brett, the Leon was a great car and her new owner is very happy. There was no way I was handing a £1k+ profit to a trader for doing nothing so I'm glad I didn't trade the car in.

The Freetrack is great and definitely a good bit taller than our Altea XL. It's a fair bit quicker too! She's off to Big Fish tuning for a remap tomorrow so should be sitting around 250bhp. It feels really planted with the four wheel drive doing a brilliant job. I never had a great deal of choice with the colour but I'm pretty pleased with it, the contrast between the paint and the bumpers is much less pronounced.

I might catch you out and about in North Yorkshire then Ross; I'll be the one in the rather mucky, if technically white, FreeTrack!

It'd be good to see you out and about Ritch, I don't think I've ever seen another Freetrack on the road. Do you ever go to any of the local car meetings?

Had the car remapped by John at Big Fish Tuning in Stokesley today, and WOW!!! She has gone from being fairly quick to being a torque spewing raging monster on full throttle. The 4 wheel drive is doing a great job of putting the power to the road and the car is seriously quick now. Very happy indeed. :)
