Hi guys. Just joined club tonight.
Had a few Seat Cupra's in my youth.
1st was an Ibiza Gti 8V in 1997, later a Leon Cupra R 225 in 2002.
Think I'm going to chuck my current Mountuned Focus RS mk2 in for it. Have thrashed a deal out today with a dealer, just need to nail down final bits and bobs after us driving the car and him seeing my RS.
Really fancy something quick with ALL the toys....like adaptive cruise, satnav, rear-doors for the kids, DSG, parking sensors, auto-everything.....etc etc it's FULLY loaded. A real Q-car.
Am I daft? There really isn't a bad review on the Leon anywhere......and my Focus will be seven years old next year.....
I'm 40 this year. Just had an operation on my back. Due another. Just fancy a complete change of scene now after 5 stints of RS ownership. Feel like I've finally scratched the RS mk2 itch......will perhaps look at a mk3 in the future depending on how they are..........but the Leon is a cracking machine by all accounts.
Not buying a new Cupra....looking at 1 year old examples.
Any advice welcome please guys........anything I need to watch out for? Anyone come across from another performance car to the 280 and has any opinion?
