Anyone worried BTCC09 is going to be a bit...boring?? Hey All I've been dying all winter for the return of BTCC, but now after reading the news from the media day its put a bit of a downer on it I feel. No JP (although that was expected) No Mat Jackson No DT. No TOC 4 Exciting race...

Totally agree, if i could look back over all the races I could come up with a load of instances where VXR used their offensively oversized elbow-shaped bumpers to get past. OCs move on Plato at knockhill was so blatent and he knew exactly what he was doing. And its not just moves on Seats...

absolutely gutted. I was heartbroken at Silverstone watching Plato drop back the pack after storming to 1st place. If his bloody tyres held out I knew we would be in for a treat of a clincher at Brands. Instead I've got to watch a cheating italian scumbag cheat his way to the title whilst his...

Its probably just that I'm pushing it pretty hard because I'm still stoked by it! General handling is excellent, round sharp corners and windy roads, its just when you're taking a long corner that you can take at 70+ you notice it. Its not a problem, but could be if I really needed to stop...

Afternoon all! Have had my LCR a few weeks now, absolutely love it! I love the grunt and the noise it makes, awesome! Its mauled an Astra Coupe Turbo, slaughtered several BMWs, and made a complete mess of countless idiot boy racers! My only concern is the lift off oversteer I get on long...

Well I last got done by Tek in Plymouth, but noticed they've kind of disappeared of the face of the earth, so I guess Taunton would be my next best bet, or Newquay considering I'm usually down there for the surf. Just a quick q, whats the buzzing noise the LCR makes for a bit when the car is...

Good luck? Why whats wrong with it!! Seems ok to me, just come back from a quick drive; quite suprised at the number of Kevs in their astras and escorts that try to have a go! Gave them all a bit of a headstart and dispatched of them before I even had to change to 2nd!! Awesome! Can't wait...

Sanderson Motorhouse in Plymouth. They're part of the Pendragon group so they've got loads of cars available. It's kind of a car supermarket but unlike most who buy ex company cars, tart them up a bit and flog them, they mainly sell Part-exs, but the best ones they get. Any ropey looking...

Well I pick it up in a few hours time. I rang them yesterday and they've fitted new brakepads all round (I'm guessing the big boys on the front are costly, so thats a relief!). I've never known a dealership to sell a good looking car that cheap, then lick your a*se with service. When I...

Finance all approved! Pick it up next wednesday! Wooo!!

I had eagle F1's on my Passat up until a couple months back. They lasted longer than any other tyre I have had. I have to ring them today to confirm its all going through, so I'll mention it to them. I guess even if you don't have the tracker activated, just a sticker in the window is enough...

Yeah drove really nice, quite suprised at the amount of tyre noise you get though considering I roll on 18s on my passat, perhaps the passat just insulates it a bit better. But i wont be using it so much on motorways, just as an evening and weekend toy! Does anyone know what models were...

I checked out that yellow LCR and its pukka! Not a mark on it! Even the engine bay is spotless, and the dealership haven't done their proper valet on it yet. The only thing I saw wrong was that the tyres were on their limits, but they said straight away that they will replace them like for...

I know its already a great looking car. I love the wheels, the bodykit etc, but has anyone done anything to theirs to give it that little extra personnal touch? I'm not talking about fitting 20" chromes or respraying it in a mad multiflip paint job, but just little things like grills, badges...

Seen a couple more LCRs knocking around with low mileage on, but older cars. Would a seat dealer be willing to chuck in a 3 year warranty if pushed?

Um yeah, time to stop it now I think!! Sorry! I'm getting the impression that a Revo'd Ibiza Cupra would out accelerate a stock Leon Cupra R. But I'm not going drag racing at santa pod or anything like that, so 0.00002 seconds quicker doesn't really interest me! I just needed to know...

No I only ask because I'm looking at getting a Leon LCR, but seem some really good deals on the Ibiza Cupra. Just wondering if the Ibiza could keep up!

Off the line which would get the better? I think the ibiza would have about 207bhp and its lighter, but the leon has bigger tyres and a bit more grunt.

If only Autotrader thought of putting their adverts like that! Go on then, give me the details!

Was that through a SEAT dealership? Which one?
