    Bocanegra Rolling Road Results + Video + Graph

    My Megane was around 210bhp ATW & 230bhp at the fly when I had it on the rollers there last summer. Again, close to book. A note of caution though - you'd be lucky to see a 182 make anything close to book if the RS forum is to be believed.

    Bocanegra Rolling Road Results + Video + Graph

    I remember when I put my Mk IV Cupra TDI on the Awesome RR back in 2006....the dyno suggested over 170bhp ATW with 185bhp at the fly (book says 160bhp). Cue howls of derision from the then-owner of the SCC forum whose p*ss-poor Mk III Cupra was comprehensively beaten. How I laughed.

    Autocar FR TDi Test

    So they should easily be able to shoehorn the 170-horse engine in there....

    Autocar FR TDi Test

    Looks nice although a bit too expensive IMHO, my Ibiza Cupra TDI cost me £14K when I bought it. Like the fact it's manual as well, wonder how well it'd remap....:D

    Bocanegra vs Cooper S vs Clio 200

    Looks like remapping will be a tad expensive for you boys....enjoy!

    Bocanegra vs Cooper S vs Clio 200

    Ever tried a Renault yourself? Only 1 was 'stripped out' (R26R) , the 'Cup' just denotes slight chassis modifications over the standard Renault Sport model. The RS200 Cup & RS250 Cup are perfectly driveable everyday cars.

    Just been offered a ibiza fr demo

    Too right - I would have said a 10-15% discount off've list would be a starting point.

    New Ibiza FR TDi SC and 5 Door Next year

    I'd hang on for the oil-burning Cupra if I was in the market for one of these.

    Just been offered a ibiza fr demo

    You should be paying a LOT less than £500 off list for an ex-demo mate, no matter what motor it is!

    New SEAT León CUPRA R - Details

    Agree 110%, it's the same with bikes at the minute too - prices are plain crazy.

    New SEAT León CUPRA R - Details

    It's everywhere this overpricing nonsense. New Meg 250 is around £25K base and with extras you're knocking on £29K. The Cup at around £22K looks a better bet - you should be able to haggle 15-20% discount quite easily with a dealer.

    New SEAT León CUPRA R - Details

    Look forward to the link then! Believe price will be about £23K from what I've read/heard, around what you'd expect but slightly overpriced IMHO.

    Not a fan of the K1 kit either I must admit.

    New SEAT León CUPRA R - Details

    Quite like the look of that! Have read elsewhere that it will have a price of less than £20K - if true that's a proper bargain although I'd be more tempted to believe around £23K to be more accurate.

    Venting Questions

    I used to vent when filling my Cupra TDI all the time, usually got an extra 7-8 litres in & thereby extended the range by another 80-100 miles.
