    Washing car water drips car wing mirrors

    Washed my car last weekend. I had to dry 3 times the passenger car door (high density microfibre cloth) as there was water drip from the wing mirror. But in all that haste I forgot to notice the driver side door, and now there is a streak! Yes it is annoying but I can live with it.

    Gap Insurance - Any suggestions for a PCH Leased Cupra?

    I also recommend ALA. I got my policy on 28/04. 2 year GAP insurance on a personal contract hire. £10k, no deposit protection, car value £29,900. It covers the outstanding rentals and any shortfall in the vehicle value, in addition to the likely cash offer from the insurance provider in the...

    Just picked up my new Leon...

    Before I had the car I used around 2.2 GB on average a month. Since getting the car and using Android Auto daily (includes Waze and music streaming) my monthly average is around 4.5 GB. 15 GB is plenty!

    Brand new Cupra - peeling paintwork or what?

    So I've had the car for just over a month and done around 1100 miles. Pretty happy so far. However, the other day I've noticed a small area where it looks like the paintwork is peeling off. It is at the driver's side, next to the rear light cluster at the joints of the two body panels. The...

    Post your Virtual Cockpit

    Tried searching but couldn't find a thread like this. For those of us that have the Virtual Cockpit, I thought it would be interesting to share how you have your's set-up? I'll start with mine:

    MK3 SEAT Leon CUPRA's owner's register

    I guess they wait for a number of orders so they can ship a batch. I was lucky too. If I waited longer I might have been affected by the massive delays we are seeing now on all VAG cars. I work with VW engineering and they are all over the place in r&d, so I'm not surprised to be honest.

    Which mode ?

    Y Yes it stays in the mode you had before you turned off your engine. I would be annoyed if it didn't !

    Do you love or hate the soundaktor?

    I love it, but understand why some would want it off or less loud. As mine is a lease, I'm not comfortable with tweaking the factory settings. I think the engine is too refined in terms of NVH and without the speaker it would feel lifeless. So I think VW/Seat made the right choice, but could...

    Which mode ?

    For very short journeys (<1 mile) and bumpy roads → Individual mode with DCC in comfort, Engine in Eco, everything else Cupra. Long motorway journeys → Individual/Comfort mode, with stints in Cupra mode for overtaking and merging. Every other time → Cupra mode. It's no use driving in Eco mode...

    Here are some pictures of my new Cupra 300 when I collected it at IMG Seat in Warrington. It's a manual. Only seen two in 'Ecplise Orange' on this forum yet, so still rare :) And here's compared to my previous, ahem, ride.

    Front Assist not working

    I have it in my mk3 Cupra as standard but haven't yet seen it in action. Only had the car for a month though. Is there a limit from what speed it starts working? So for example, if you are parking and get too close to the car in front, does it break for you?

    Cupra 300 DSG vs Manual?

    Having driven a Golf GTI in DSG and now having a Cupra in Manual, I'd probably choose a DSG in Cupra. People who say there is no involvement with DSG, I disagree. You get involved in the driving as you are paying more attention on the road tbh.

    MK3 SEAT Leon CUPRA's owner's register

    Not sure if anyone's interested but I've placed the order for mine in January and got delivery (or collection rather) from IMG Warington at the end of April. 5dr Manual hatchback. So that was about 12-14 week wait. It was no options and a lease.

    Out with the old, in with the new

    Hi Everyone, I'm new to the whole forum thing, even though I've been lurking all over the internet for years. That didn’t come out right lol. Anyway, I'm not here to creep you out. Time has come to change my first car. There was nothing wrong with it, but I just wanted something nice. Having...
