    What would you sell your cupra for?

    Dam, that looks pretty. I say wait - Gives you enough time to save the £50-70K asking price for one :bleh:

    What would you sell your cupra for?

    The car is fantastic, lets get that clear right away. It goes like :censored: off a shovel, and corners very, very well. The cars SMG paddle-shift gearbox is also so darn responsive... It probaly is (almost) the perfect handling small sports car, and according to EVO mag, when they raced it...

    Thinking about returning to the SEAT camp...

    :) Another update!!!! Subject to P/X price on the BMW (the dealer is stalling a bit on that atm), a Red K1 will be finding a home on my driveway. It's a tenner short of £20K, registered to 09 plates with 8 miles on the clock. It has Sat Nav, Bluetooth and black Alloy Wheels. Forgot to look or...

    What would you sell your cupra for?

    Thinking about returning to the SEAT camp...

    LOL - I don't think it's a "doddle" as you put it! :happy: When I had the Cupra, I had Vagtech price up the conversion. Including parts and labour it was somewhere in the region of £4K. the list of parts needed to achieve it was also just as big. A few eye openers were things like needing a...

    SEAT service or AMD service?

    Lol, I could add my £10's worth to this one, but maybe if you have an hour spare, mull over the 16 pages here for old times sake: http://www.seatcupra.net/forums/showthread.php?t=193416&highlight=rcs2k4 As I found, it all depends on how accomodating your local dealer is. Mine strictly...

    Thinking about returning to the SEAT camp...

    Update!!! But man, am I disappointed... After a visit to my 2nd closest SEAT dealer, I have decided that the facelift Leon is NOT as pretty as the one I used to have. I dunno, but seeing the front end of the new Cupra that they had, it looked a bit squashed up round the fog lamp area, and the...

    Passenger seat sensor

    Basically, they plugged it into a PC to look for a fault code :) Dealers eh? It's probably a loose cable or the sensors a dud and just needs to be replaced. Poke your head under the seat and take a look if any of the cables in the loom that come's up from the floor are detached. If not, go...

    Thinking about returning to the SEAT camp...

    Agreed. the 3.2 engine sounds excellent, but it just can't cut it in the performance stakes against the 2.0 TSI engine. If i bought another SEAT (Or the S3), the modding bug would bite very quickly because I know what can be done to that engine. It's amazing that after almost 12 months, the BMW...

    Thinking about returning to the SEAT camp...

    I did order a Focus RS, but got bored of waiting so went for the BMW. I'm not going to suggest that for one minute that the BMW is a bad car, it's just expensive to keep it moving. The rear tyres don't last for a start. They cost £350 for one, and only manage about 4-5K. I also dread dealer...

    Thinking about returning to the SEAT camp...

    Come on chaps, twist my arm here... I have very fond and happy memories (mostly) of the 3 SEAT cars I have owned over the years. I had a MK4 Ibiza FT TDI, then a MK4 Ibiza Cupra 20VT, and the last one was a MK2 Leon Cupra which was tuned to a rather bonkers 350 BHP! some of you will hopefully...

    Mondeo Titanium X Sport - The Cupra Has Been Sidelined!

    Thanks for all the comments peeps - It's a very nice car to own, and the engine is very smooth... Diesel's power delivery took some getting used to compared to the previosu and current petrol cars I have owned. You simply can't just "floor" a Diesel car in the same way you can a petrol one. It's...

    Wouldn't know. I stop at 6500 (it seams ok there BTW). No point going past there as you have passed the peak power (BHP) output at 6250 RPM?

    Hi, thanks for the comments peeps. I definatly did not break the speed limit while I was filming... ;) As for the sports cat, Milltek definatly do supply 100 Cell variations. It's purchased seperatly, and just bolts between all the other bits of the exhaust system perfectly. It was quite a bit...
