    Interesting on the German configurator Eclipse Orange which was seen at one of the motor shows is now available on the Cupra 300.

    Rear disc heat shield

    Yes I thought I might be able to remove the loose one simply by taking off the wheel and pull it out, as the original holes are very corroded. As you mention I think on the rear ones there is no break in the "C" shape. Is that correct? Did you get them direct from Seat. I would have ordered...

    Rear disc heat shield

    Okay will just take it off. If I need to replace the discs at any point can always order up some new ones. Thanks

    Rear disc heat shield

    Hi guys, Terrible grinding noise coming from the back of the car at the weekend. Noticed first somehow one of the rear disc heat shields has disappeared! The other has come away from bolt holes and is grinding against the disc. I think the bolts have corroded. Whilst getting work done the...

    Centre Caps

    I had mine refurbished recently. I contacted Dave at Sere's he was able to send me 4 replacement caps for about £16 inc delivery. Simple told him the spec of my car and he found the parts. You may struggle as Dave has now left his position at Sere's and believe he is not monitoring the forum...

    Falken Tyres - opinions

    I have bought a set of Falken Azenis FK510, these replaced the fk453's in Falkens line up. My main reason is it is looking likely I will be selling my car. Currently have my winters on and the original wheels are needing to be refurbished for the sale, didn't see the sense sticking on some...

    MK3 SEAT Leon CUPRA's owner's register

    I see there are 3 Blue 290's on Autotrader, although they are all ST's wasn't sure if you were looking at hatchback or ST http://www.autotrader.co.uk/car-search?sort=price-desc&radius=1500&postcode=ab140wg&onesearchad=Used&onesearchad=Nearly%20New&onesearchad=New&make=SEAT&model=LEON&page=2

    2017 Leon!!!

    UK Configuration for the Cupra ST 300 4Drive is up. Note a lack of performance pack for UK.

    2017 Leon!!!

    Yes quite a high price. Will need to see what sort of deals are being made available through the brokers otherwise imagine performance pack won't be massively popular.

    New Ateca

    Yeah, the wife is wanting something more practical. But I am wanting something that is still somewhat fun to drive. Will be waiting to see what the facelift Leon Cupra ST brings, this might be the right compromise of practicality and sleeper fast estate. Still would be interested to see how or...

    New Ateca

    Okay would have thought you would have been more interested in the other derivatives of the Ateca range considering you are on the list for one. Hopefully the Ateca works for your needs. I am looking at this from the perspective of a Mk2 Cupra owner, looking to change cars soon and needing...

    New Ateca

    No I understand what your saying, I see from your avatar that you are an Audi owner so would possibly have more loyalty to the brand because of this. I would say that Audi are a top brand and the cars they produce are good if a little over priced at times. If we were speaking in an Audi forum...

    New Ateca

    Okay, but it is the performance version of the Ateca so you would have to compare performance levels otherwise stick to the bog standard diesel in either Seat or Audi form and be done with it. You possibly could get a pre reg Audi for similar price. Looking on their website the Q5 S Line is only...

    New Ateca

    I see where you are coming from although, we can all compare what price you can get for other prestige cars. In this case you would be looking at a Diesel Q5 with maybe 150bhp and likely not alot of options. Which seems more dull to me. If your talking about the SQ5 then again money wise they...
