I think the only thing the Golf R doesn't come with that the Cupra does is the adaptive dampers? The Golf R gets winter pack as standard but I would prefer the adaptive dampers anyway. The performance Golfs and the Cupras are pretty much fully loaded on both sides.

It doesn't have dynamic chassis control either. That's about an extra grand.
I ordered my new Leon ST Cupra 300 in January and am finally picking it up tomorrow!
Estate because I have to pretend to be a family man now. Child and Dog.
Auto because my wife does not like manual and I couldn't easily justify spending so much money on something she couldn't drive
options:
Orange paint
Panoramic sunroof
driver assists (lane control, emergency breaking etc.)

Here's a taster - had lots of positive comments about the Eclipse
The Golf R quote I had was 9x23 £274pcm
8k & 24 months
This was for a 5 door manual with white non metallic paint. This was on an 18 week wait.
It was a decent deal but I get a lot more on my CUPRA order for less money.
Oh wow I got a quote for one from two different places with no options and they were both like £340 a month. I prefer the Cupra though to be honest - maybe when I've had a couple more years in one and if that 400bhp monster is actually affordable...
The quote i received was from select car leasing. They had an offer on.
I like the CUPRA the 280 has been a great car and hopefully the 300 will be better, but I still prefer the S3 and the Golf R. 4x drive, interior and exhaust sound better imho.
I'm guessing that the CUPRA is going to get even more expensive as it becomes more premium under the new branding.
Just had an update on my order.
It was placed on the 23rd of May and has been accepted by the factory this week.
No build date confirmed yet.

What's annoying there is no FIFO or anything like that. I am now get fortnightly calls from SEAT UK, and they can't tell me anything other than no build date yet and they would not even estimate one. It's coming up to 6 months now and no idea when it will be built..
So after 6 months your order has been accepted but with no build date assigned?! That's disturbing.
How long did it take for the factory to accept your order?
Did you order a manual or DSG?
Well I hope SEAT UK look after you.
I got a call yesterday asking me to provide feedback on my recent experience with SEAT UK. I had to tell them about my ordering experience LOL.
They are apparently looking to improve their service....
odd that, mine was placed 8th March and it was built last week, should be here within the next two weeks
There may be others, but Pegasus Ace and Aquarius Ace do the Barcelona-Sheerness-Grimsby-Tyne run.
I'll get me coat.........
What was the spec of yours? Mine should be a DSG 300 ST 4drive, white, no other options!
The date of the builds seem to be at random and I really dislike the lack of transparency in the order process.
Ahh, OK thanks. I didn't know they went via Sheerness. It might be the Sanderling Ace then as that is currently on that route.
Oh yeah. That's odd... I thought it was the manual version they were stopping orders for? I must have misunderstood
Also showing on this site are new models, LUX [ez]? https://www.forcescarsdirect.com/new-cars/seat/leon
