Leon Cupra ST Carbon Edition Anyone...

[Damo H]

Damo, what BCS exhaust did you had on your previouse cupra ST?

It was their PowerValve Cat back system with Quad 76mmCeramic black coats tips. Currently on @Jamp94’s car...

Sorry to highjack this topic. Some more questions around this exhaust.

Im looking for a solution that I can drive with the family ..in silence just like OEM and during the weekend, when pushing, a nice growl without drinking.

How did you experience this exhaust?

The BCS exhaust effectively does this. It’s louder than stock when you’re driving slowly, but not massively so. Then when you hit boost, the valve opens and it gets much more like it should be, not too loud but significantly louder.

They haven't made it yet The guy who was going to be the development car, hasn't yet got the car. I can't even offer mine as my car is my only car and the rear exit on the diffuser of the Carbon edition is significantly bigger to fit the 4 pipes through.

Thank you. I meant the previous BCS exhaust you had on 280 ST if I understood it right. I have FWD manual gearbox ST not carbon edition. I think that size of 280 ST and 300 ST is the same, isnt it?

Sorry I'm an idiot, I assumed it was a 4drive.

Yes the 280/290/300 FWD should all be the same

Great. And do you remember the price?

Mine was discounted 10%, as I was a forum member. Not sure you get a discount outside the UK. The Black Tips are also £100 extra.

So expect to pay £900-£1000.

Swindon have one in stock for sure I sat in it when I did the 300 test drive just over a week ago

 

[Jamilarov]

Ok. Thank you.

 

[Damo H]

Ok. Thank you.

If you email or call them, Nigel is who you'll speak to. Really nice chap. Tell them you want the same as me with the black tips he'll look after you

DM Keith in York have one sub £30k with 5000 miles. I suspect it’s another 90 day demo car

Seat Blackpool have reduced their Carbon to just under £30k,possibly just delivery miles as well.

But how many are there?....not that many,although the exact number was never stated.
Does not seem that they have sold as well as the R edition...
Probably not gone to plan as far as the dealers are concerned,bet they hoped to sell them all at full price before the end of September!

Looking forward to mine...asked the dealer if it could be released early,they said they would ask SEAT,but not heard back,so I suppose that means "No".

I spoilt their plan about 2 months ago then.

There are 50 Carbon Editions in the UK.

24 R’s, well 23 now as one was written off.

Neither were sold out despite what the press or Seat may of said.

 

[Maypack]

There’s a couple of Carbon ST’s currently in Autotrader at just less than 30k

 

[Damo H]

Clearly they've all now got the memo...
