Picked up my Cupra 290 a few weeks ago now, and one thing thats really bugging me. When travelling at speed theres noticeable wind noise that seems to come from the top corner of the drivers door - IE right next to my ear. I noticed it within an hour of collecting the car as one of those...

Just ordered one too [B)] Looking forward to deactivating the :censored: soundaktor!

I know the ST model has a 12v socket in the boot. Does anyone know if there is somewhere in the boot of the 5dr model i can take 12v feed from? switched feed would be preferable, but permanent is also fine if that avoids having to run wires from the 12v in the car. Thanks

Normally id buy on PCP - however my Leon is leased this time round, simply because it was the cheaper option.

Huawei P9 does not work - although apparently the latest phone update (EMUI 4.11, that i dont have yet) does work. Update: after putting the latest update on my P9 (B180) - Android auto works fine.

Sorry cant help - however i am subscribing as i have the same dashcam waiting to be installed when the cupra arrives.

I have to say im not sure id ever get modern diesel. All the development to make them cleaner has definitely blunted their economy, and then hide it with their un-realistic "official" mpg figures. My last diesel i ran for 100k miles was the old 1.9 PD130 in a fabia vRS (remapped)- on...

Just had an email update from CVL (they must be updating everyone) - saying still unconfirmed build week 39. It will be a genuine surprise when the car turns up, as ive been given a different bw every time ive chased it.[:@]

Ive just had confirmed bw 41 - bit annoying considering i ordered mine on Jul 6th. :(

Cheers - dont suppose you know which dealer they are sourcing their cars from?

Still havent heard a peep out of CVL for my build week after ordering 6 weeks ago - definitely not impressed with their services so far and wishing id gone to a dealer.

Preliminary prices ive had for the 290 have been just over £300 - basically £50 more than a 60bhp citigo :wtf::wtf: - Thats with Aviva/Swiftcover. Chris Knott dont cover Manchester postcodes unfortunately.

The reports I've seen are all on the ukpolos forum. 3 people so far.. Although one of them was mapped I think.

I almost bought one at the end of June - DtD and carwow were coming in around 15.5k for a cupra black with every option except the sunroof. which made it cheaper than a Fiesta ST-3 Nav. IMHO the alcantara seats are a must to lift the ambience of the cabin. One thing to be weary of is a...

Same here too - 5dr in Monsoon Grey expected Sept/Oct Was pretty fortuitous that the lease deal came up, as i was about to order an Ibiza Cupra the following week.. The Leon actually works out cheaper!

Looking good!.. :)

Go for it.. you wont regret it! i cant even begin to explain how much better my car looked after Iain had given it a going over.. and thats saying something considering it was only 2 weeks old!! :-o

Looks good.. and good engine choice. Only thing im not too keen on.. the DSG box being standard... and its measly 180lb/ft torque rating, which limits tuning potential :(

Aye.. probably would have been a bit more balanced if it was the cupra without the K1 kit. People buy the K1 to get noticed.. i bought my mazda not to get noticed :D

IIRC they can be adjusted with vagcom... dont ask me how though :)
