3 car lengths in a leon estate is more than 2 seconds ;)
The main problem wasn't the distance I had to react because of the truck as I was using the ACC to maintain distance at it's stock setting . It's the poor beam pattern from the LED headlights.
Yes they are extremely bright but I...
I did actually fear the worst the impact was so bad . Very impressed with the 19" performance wheels (if only they were easier to clean) hopefully the 19" pretorias on my new car are manufactured to the same standards as the Leon rims , my last car before the cupra (mk6 Golf R with 19"...
Unfortunately it was pitch black and had travelled a few mins before the dreaded tpms warning light had come on so could only narrow it down to a 5 mile stretch . But I can assure you it was a beast of a hole , both myself and my mate in the car cursed when I hit it as I had very little time to...

Been giving the Michelin's a hammering to get release compound off them but very happy with improvement over the PZero rubber I had on
Mine does wheelspin in 3rd quite easily.
Got Pirelli PZero on front at moment . They are MO spec so hopefully that's the issue I have otherwise it's bye bye cupra
Some new front boots. Pilot sport 4 S , hopefully they will sort out the dire traction that's making me hate the car at the moment.
Also excuse the dog photobombing the pic
