    what did you and your mk3 leon do today

    Went to look at the ST’s replacement and ended up signing on the dotted line. At 54k miles, 5 years old and the impending clean air fees for Birmingham a change was due. Seat’s current range being uninspiring ended up going for an Octavia VRS Estate with 4x4 and DSG [emoji846] Sent from my...

    Maintenance query

    Hi all, There are two types of service reminders on my 14 plate ST one for a service and inspection. Service will depend on age and mileage sure. So what does the inspection relate to and what is involved in an inspection? Thank you Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    I bought some from the item number mentioned. Definitely enough shove in them but they’re too short. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    What MK3 have you got? SC, 5 door or ST? Only I bought some of these for my ST and they are nowhere near long enough. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Used the cavernous boot of my Leon to help with moving into our first house :) Only a couple more trips then the rest is stuff that’s a bit big for the Leon such as our sofa, so that’ll have to be in a van. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Bonnet 'Gas Strut' Stays

    Front end of the cars is the same. So don’t need an ST specific version. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    What did you make of the Atecca? I’m tempted but more likely to wait for Seat’s version of the Kodiaq. I’m a 4x4 driver at heart [emoji5] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    The plastic clips in the boot panels that it patches on to, right and one has broken off each time. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    New bootlight turned up after started having a connection issue with the standard one. It’s massively brighter, but the unit is a bit larger (not the end of the world) however it seems to stay on dimly when the boot is shut. So might be back to the drawing board. Also need to fix my parcel...

    I did it in situ. Was not easy, got took straight off and put in the bin. Want to do it again soon though. Need to redo my door pillars too (wrapped in carbon fibre) but first priority is a new drivers door :( Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Done some wrapping in the past and had an attempt at wrapping the Seat s. It is a complete pain and looks awful except from a distance Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    I bought a bonnet bra for this very reason. Worked brilliantly at protecting my bonnet and windscreen. Just a pain to clean each time I decide to clean the car properly. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    184 diesel FR for short journeys?

    I do an 18mile commute each way, occasional 5 min trips to Tesco etc etc. 36ish k on the clock and can get depending on the weight of my shoes between low 30s to over 65mpg just on my 18mile commute. The 184 is a brilliant engine that suits lots, but not all driving styles. And I can drive...

    what did you and your mk3 leon do today

    Temporarily fixed my boot light (it's decided it needs a tap to do anything, like a dodgy connection) Got annoyed at my parcel shelf- it only latches on one side as the other latch has popped off and fallen down the panel gap. Anyone have any ideas how to get to it? Got a message on my dash to...

    New tyres all round and 4 wheel alignment. 4 continental sport contract 5s to replace a slow puncture, a down to the cord on the inner, a bald and a worn. Feels like a completely different car again :) Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
