Yes so I heard, another forum member mentioned on here that they compared their Cupra280 against the S3/R forgot which and found that the ECU files are identical and seeing that their bare the same mechanicals underneath; the 280 therefore is just marketing I believe, something VW are good at.
I read it as there is differences between the 290 and 280 varients, not least to improve on its lap times to recapture the FWD hatch title its lost recently. Awesome spec and car for the money btw.
I was actually looking to order the Cupra280 pretty soon, do you think it would be built as a Cupra290, or would they still build the 280 in around 8 weeks?
Or is it likely that to get a Cupra290, you'd have to wait until they discontinued the 280?
