Similarish to Mk2 LCR was to LC then?

That run out model thought had crossed my mind. I'm really tempted to wait for it as I don't see the 290 and subsequent 300 as a must have - nice upgrades but nothing worth me racing down to the dealer with a pen in my hand :)

There's still a good 3 ish years in the MK3 yet I'd expect.

Not sure why the rear window fins have gone. I'm sure they were STD on the 290 and not just with the performance pack.

Yes they are from https://www.seat-leon.de and I posted without anyone's permission as I don't speak German :D

Germany is SEATs biggest market and clearly they have shipped the facelift their first. I'm sure their press day was also one of the first ones too.

I do think white looks the best, but would just get too much attention for me.

Most seem to be on Pirelli's too, but the Grey ST is on Conti's.

Noticed, with the blue car, that the front Seat Logo does seem to have grown ?

As to be expected I guess, the VW circle as been blown-up like 4times in the years.
Looks good on the darker car, I must state.

I could have had the blue for early March, it looks good but was too much of a risk having not seen it.

Looking forward to seeing a grey 5 door.. can't be long now!

I took the plunge and ordered the Blue without seeing an example... It looks very similar to the Golf R Blue in that light, I hope it looks even better in the metal!

Mid March delivery so not long to go.

It's a shame that the rear window spoilers won't be standard or even an option just yet

Both are great looking !

Only winners here, I have one from the last 290's-batch in Holland and in bright Red (Emo).
Looked at grey also but all those company lease cars here are in grey(ish) or white(ish), meaning
my red is more of an exlusive one. Also I like it a lot, apart from fact there is a saving in it -being Dutch, after all..... LOL -) aswell !


As for the fins, also in my opinion a pity we have lost those !
Know there are mixed feeling about those, but not by me - as I do believe they do add to the car.

Did not realise this was on 13 and 14th.
So what a Valentine's Day present it is (must be one of the best in years, am I right) !!

Just seen the photos of the Orange line on the 300 on Instagram. Ouch my eyes.

Scott - did you ask about the side rear fins? Seems the press cars had them but as far as I can tell it was the cars with the performance pack - been grouped into this as part of the pack you think?

I have been toying with buying a Golf R estate in the next year, now the 300 ST has 4wd I am sorely tempted to save some cash, give up the virtual cockpit and stick with SEAT.
Those new standard wheels look great, the redesigned front bumper looks much better in the flesh and the blue paint looks really smart too.
Only thing I don't like is the tacky faux carbon effect black vinyl on the door cards and seats, looks very Halfords to my eyes.

Looking forward to seeing photos from the event today.

Seems as though they had PP vehicles with added gills on the side skirts plus which must be the optional PP wheels.

I thought I would just say hello to you all.

I have a Nevada White ST with 4-drive DSG on order, but no build date yet.

A question to those others who have a 300 on order, as far as I can see on here that's philmots, spongeym and sukz, how soon after order did you get build date/ eta?
