Welcome to the forum

I love a good MK2 Leon! Not that i'm bias or anything lol

To get to all the MK2 stuff you need to head over to this section - https://forums.seatcupra.net/index.php?forums/leon-mk2.136/

You looking to get any mods done on your car or just here to do upkeep etc?

If you would like to see other cars that have been modified you can head over to the Readers rides here - https://forums.seatcupra.net/index.php?forums/readers-rides-seat.229/

Also you can get a conversation going in this thread i'm sure more MK2 Leon owners will be here shortly to welcome you.

Loads of help with doing mods, detailing etc on the forum.

Any issues let me know

Did I hear mention of MK3 Owners, how can I help.

Sorry @Gazzelle we are all a bit over excited after our last club meet - check out https://forums.seatcupra.net/index....h-west-let’s-get-them-arranged.445464/page-35 for pics of our cars.

I saw you asked a question of @Jimbobcook about picture size, if you are using the site system them I am afraid you have to make your picture a smaller size, I think it takes up to 1meg after that it rejects.

Otherwise just host your picture on one of the many hosting sites and use the BB Code to llink it into the thread

It's only 265bhp and completely stock so not quite 500 haha buts it's plenty fast enough for me.

Exhaust will depend on your budget as you can do pretty much whatever you want... You could fit a new rear diffuser and have the twin pipes at the back. I'm not sure bei g a diesel you'll get a great noise but if yours is falling apart there is loads out there...

A few mainstream companies include BCS, Miltek, Cobra to name a few but you can always find a custom place near you to get exactly what you want.

As for models yes it goes FR(+), Cupra and then Cupra R.

Great cars!
