Soul destroying driving that slow on the motorway though, and by that logic you might get 45-50mpg @ 50mph lol. I had a 3.6 v6 before the LCR and that was as equally as good/bad on fuel but sounded a lot better . Even on a run at 70mph it would return 31mpg and that was AWD

That LCR Iv just sold at stage 1 wouldn't do any better than 31mpg @ 70mph

I wouldn't waist your money on a respray,save it for your new motor Those miles are likely to set you back £50-£60 a week( which is what the Leon was costing us)

As nice as sporty fast petrols are if you do any sort of mileage they start to be a bug bear with running cost's and depreciation as the mileage stacks up. Did you say you had a child on the way ? Bigger needed etc?

Yeah proper gash!

What's your budget?

Take all your mods off your FR and put them on your new LCR! They should fit (I think ....happy to be corrected) Buy privately! There somes cracking deals to be had on these cars now the newer 280 has come down in price, buying from a dealer will come with at least a £2k premium,a personal loan...

Iv just sold my Cupra R, and bought another car, Adrian flux just charged me an admin fee of £40 ish. Iv changed my car nemerous times mid policy over the last 4yrs with similar results again with Adrian flux Will direct line cover for modifications & remaps etc

Love it,it's stunning (look at it ) interior is lovely,sound system worth Turning up a notch ,comfortable ride,halfed my fuel bills aswell as RFL & insurance , bigger boot oh and eventually got 19" rims . Wanted an Alfa for a while admittedly not a diesel but hey ho, needs must n all It...

Have you considered Dpf removal rather than gutting it, so you can strap it back for the m.o.t,or atleast if it fails the m.o.t you can atleast refit it for the retest.

To be fair no one would look at the cupra brakes and think it was anything special,there terrible . Standard cupra could be mistaken for a FR, there nothing special to look at, probably why most seem to retro fit the rear R diffuser and exhaust, along with the spoiler

And the new ride....... Newly acquired Alfa Romeo 159 Ti in 2.0jtdm guise .

So atleast you know , and your aware of the consaquences if you get caught

Just so your aware this is now an M.O.T failure, so if your gonna do it don't destroy your dpf as apparently there bringing a soot test out so it's not just a visual inspection .

Little black plastic extension guard thing on the rear wheel arches , as the wheels protrude from the body work Cupra R engine cover powered by WTCC ( or summit like that ) R badge on clocks . Iv had to cupra owners drive mine and say it felt different, in a good way Just saying

Apparently there upping the testing at M.o.T with a soot test to catch out the gutted/modified ones . £1000 fine and an unroadworthy car

Just an observation. Are company's still offering this service ? I'd read or heard somewhere that it was now illegal to remove emissions safety devices and will fail an m.o.t, plus there's a fine if you get caught Truth or Internet myth?

Spent the week there in September , check out my RR thread in my sig for more details

Sold! Nice wedge of cash for a house deposit

Summit different ... Alpha 159 ....mondeo... Octavia .... Mazda 6.....Passat that kinda thing
