Test worked and the car looks awesome. Give us some more details on it and how you've kept it looking so pristine!

So a little more info about my car as asked.

Had my R from new and garaged it the whole time (hence no fading), it's my pride and joy and used it for the first few yrs, it does just sit in the garage now (criminal l know) but does get moved and started regular though. It is an 03 with 52700k on it.
I machine polished it recently myself (love a bit of detailing) and used quality products also.
It is also in this mths modern classics magazine if you fancy a read and to see some pro pics of it, which I am quite chuffed about. Any more info l will gladly answer. Cheers.

I thought it was your car in modern classics.
Not bought the mag yet but saw the ‘next month’ in last months mag.
Said to one of fellas at the meet in Blackpool today thought it was that car.
Credit to you, looks mint.
I’ve had my Cupra r mk1 for getting on 3 years after 3 mk1’s when they were new.
Love em to bits.
I’ll buy the mag tommorow and have a read.

@deano w welcome and awesome car! I'm the guy who's contacted you on the Facebook group about posting this on the forum Instagram account. I can use these pictures if you want to make it easier?

Awesome! You should get it to one or more of our meets be great to see it. Plenty of detailers to talk to haha

That's great if you would like to use them, I've actually just gone on to instagram if that helps any.
If the weather is good l will get to caffine machine hopefully. Hope there's a few others close also.

Just read the article in modern classics.
Your car looks stunning and the review of the Cupra R pretty much says what us owners already know.
Just one thing i don’t think they really gave it enough praise for...
Just look at it! It’s just stunning, even 20 years on!

Cheers, l must admit I've never liked any of the other Leon's as much as the mk 1, be interesting to see how the mk4 looks, not that I'll be selling mine though
