Not VCDS, but I think you can do most of the same with an ODBEleven.
I've switched on:
mirror fold on lock
beep on lock
rear lights on with DRLs
show fan speed on auto climate control
convenience indicator to 4 (instead of 3)
add oil temperature to dash screen
Maybe a few more...
Verdict may as well have been get a fiesta too, if you're forever stuck behind them and the FR/Cupra is too dangerous around a corner for you? :confused:
I wouldn't really say the FR is alike to an S-Line car or the rest, though I see where you're coming from. You get a lot of kit in an FR compared to the base models, unlike an S-line which is normally just wheels and a body kit.
Having just gone from an FR to a 290 though, the FR as a package...
May be right, a chap on the PistonHeads thread who received the car without being told of the change managed to negotiate upto £500 (not sure whether vouchers or cash discount). I think pretty much all of the people who accepted the £250 in vouchers were told in advance.
A lot of guys had their dynamic grey orders replaced with white as they supposedly ran out of the paint. If you get it confirmed as white, I know a lot of the leasers have been getting £250 in high street vouchers from SEAT so worth asking.
I'd be surprised if it wasn't white, most of the...
From doing it recently via an ODBEleven, after you make the change you actually have to go into the car menu, opening & closing, then tick the new "Audible locking confirmation" box that will have appeared :)
I went for these: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/172272767337
They fit well.
A bit pricey at £35, but I knew they would fit and didn't want the hassle of sending others that didn't back and forth.
Finally took delivery of mine earlier, can anyone beat 6 and a half months of waiting? :p
After a few minutes in it I was wondering about the drive & gearbox modes, I tried it in cupra quickly which put the gearbox into S and it was holding the gears really high.
Will have to get back to...
There are some on amazon that look identical to those that were on eBay, will order some and let you guys know if they fit.
EDIT: They do actually look slightly different, I'll wait till the eBay seller is back too!
Most of them don't have the front bumper, I believe there were two separate options, the "kit" or "pack", with the pack containing the additional front bumper.
Completely disagree on the rear, I'd much rather the spoiler, painted bumper & diffuser that than the wedge of plastic normally there.
They are fairly rare, probably not worthy of the above premium, though you don't know the condition of each of the cars either. It was/is an expensive upgrade though, so it's not too surprising.
I'll be selling mine with the kit and ~20k miles in the next few weeks when the leased cupra arrives.
I rang up Admiral in September to ask how much it would be to change to the cupra for the remaining 3 months, and it was around £300, which oddly was the same as the increase for a new 12 month policy.
Didn't think you could just get a refund either, last time I changed car they were talking...
