leon cupra - winter protection

[cupra.al]

cheap mods i would say heated washer jets as it is winter.
or some sort of heating element in the washer fluid bottle to heat the water, thats just a suggestion thats popped to mind.

Have you done anything with the interior Jake? Maybe do the plastic fascia's a different colour?

 

[jake]

I only painted them a factory colour. I did think about doing them a bit darker.

I see this on ebay earlier and looks stunning. If i only i had the cash at min id be seriously tempted

 

[jake]

Yeah I stuck it on last night,

And have been contacted by a forum member who's coming to have a look at weekend, but he's also interested in a new focus st.

On a side note, last time I sold it I was contacted by a guy local, who eventually turned out to be a Messer offering 7k for it, then again he contacted me before Christmas when I stuck it on a forum for a feelers, again giving me abuse.

Well within a hour of it being on eBay, the barrage continued,

The cars over mileage, a rubbish colour, I'm a Messer, it's too dear etc etc

He even threatened a public hate campaign on the forums, just because I wouldn't sell it to him cheap.

I've looked into stage two and its just too much money to justify,

I've now seen a very nice Audi avant Quattro special edition, which I've set my heart on so the cars Deffo ready to go to a newowner .

 

[Crafoo]

Will you take £7K?

Cars got too many miles to be worth any more, not keen on the colour too.....

 

[jake]

Sadly just getting messers

One guy who spent about 40 mins on the phone then days asking for images turned round and offered 6500 for it as it needs a respray in white,

We buy any car offered 7200 ffs

What a complete twat of a guy he is. Do you know who it is??

 

[jake]

no....I have an idea,

one guy who had a different number everytime he called me, but I saved allof them, inc the number from the original time last year, all from burnley...tbh ive blocked his number now as im sick of someone who thinks it's fine to just give people grief for no reason,

he was telling me how £7k is a fair shout, and I should take it,,,,then spits his dummy out when he cant have it, he's bound to be on a forum as he mentioned it,

 

[Crafoo]

I hate selling cars anyway (not that i do it often) but private selling is just a royal pain in the arse. I got really lucky when i sold the LCR because the guy who bought it was a really nice chap but you do get those idiots who pester with silly offers and wonder why you've not ripped their arm off.

[jake]

Well the cars all minted up, Rotas back on ready for a viewing tomorrow,


Tbh I don't think it will sell, purely as he's looking at a 60plate speed blue cupra r and also a 13 plate focus st3 along with mine, tbh how can it compete, it's stupid clean but they have at least 5yrs advantage.

On good thing, I realise how good it looks still

[lc_allan]

I hope it sells Jake and then you banish yourself from this forum.
I don't wanna see another 'bought a leon' thread ever again.

 

[jake]

Haha.

Well he's been and seen it. Sounded like the first car he saw he dint like, so it's between mine and a new focus st3.2.0

 

[jake]

Sold

 

[Daniel M]

It's ok you'll have it back next month haha

Shame though Jake as it is a great car.

Whats replacing it?

 

[jake]

Already got the replacement.

Audi a4 2.0tfsi Quattro special edition avant.

Will get pics up asap

 

[jake]

Here's the replacement

Hell of a thread there mate!

Seriously tempted by an A4 DTM before I bought my LCR.

 

[ashFrtfsi]

Just sat and read this entire thread.....all I can say is WOW! Your Leon is truly a credit to your hard work and efforts truly stunning in every aspect.....and after reading this it has convinced me that I need to start spending on mine

June 2015:

Jake: "The Audi was just too big and lazy, I missed the Leon so I bought it back/bought another one - for the money they're just so good. I'm gonna buy new brakes, new exhaust and spend a few hundred quid on it and just enjoy it.............."

ah the circle continues

baaahahaha
