    Getting a Sportrider.

    Right as I thought not many in at dealers. Have managed to get a decent deal on a white 1.2 tsi with dsg. It's a bit more per month than what I want to pay but going to see the dealer tomorrow again to see if I can get any more off. I have purchased 4 SEAT's from them in the past. I drove a...

    Getting a Sportrider.

    It's only averaging about 22 mpg. Also do short trips to pick son up from nursery so uses alot of fuel on a weekly basis. Plus tax, insurance and servicing adds up in a year.

    Getting a Sportrider.

    Today I'm hopefully going to get a sportrider. I've had cupras and FR's and currently drive a Lexus IS250, so I'm sure it will feel alot slower. Anyhow I have my bike for speed thrills. Reason for change is to cut down on running costs as I only work two miles from home and the Lexus is...

    Buying an FR Tdi

    They were on my Leon. Convenience was auto lights, wipers, auto dimming mirror. Winter was heated seats, washer jets, headlight wash from what I remember. I think it's similar on the Ibiza apart from maybe heated seats.

    Buying an FR Tdi

    Good to know as the wife's Lexus does 25mpg around town. Glad it's going in June and hopefully replaced with a diesel too. All ready looking at the mods. This site is bad for my wallet.

    Buying an FR Tdi

    Well after a couple of years of being without a car due to not needing one and using my motorbike. I am going to look at an FR Tdi as a second car due to having a 15 month old boy so that I can get out and about. It's zenith grey 56 plate with 46k miles. Looks clean in the photos so hopefully...

    New Leon FR - Chuffed To Bits

    Its ok. Narrowish tracks and there are lots of jumps to keep the boys busy while you go off for a ride through the woods. From Ilkeston probably take two hours ish. Its pretty sandy and gritty so can be loose under tyres.

    New Leon FR - Chuffed To Bits

    Very nice. I really miss my FR. Wish I had kept it. My wife keeps telling me it was her favourite of all the Leons we had. I have seen you around Ilkeston thought it was a Cupra at a glance until now.

    Finally took some pics of me Gixer

    I have seen an 89 cbr 400 locally which tempted me for £1600. I have already bought my helmet a caberg trip with flip front as I wear glasses this was the only one I could get my glasses on with apart from a £400 shoei, and have some decent frank thomas leather gloves and boots. Just deciding...

    Might have to sell my '07 FR TDi

    I was hoping for more too but as I have come to realise the extras dont realy add value but just make the car more desirable. You could probably get 14k but would have to wait for a buyer. Like I said there are loads on the trader with less miles. I was happy with my price as was only offered...

    I'm changing mine and it has 18's,bluetooth,convenience,winter,skirts,rear spoiler,i-pod, same mileage as yours and have been offered £13500 by dealer to buy it off me. Looked around on autotrader and glasses and this seems a fair price for them to buy and I dont have the hassle of...
