  1. A £4000 mod for my LCR!

    It's funny how some people 'get' number plates and others don't. The number plate I wanted is £64k (A1ANS) and I couldn't afford that so the one I got cost £250 with a bit more imagination. Still didn't stop the 'wozit mean' questions. Some of my earthy colleagues thought it spelt Anus...
  2. Ipod connection for seat HU

    http://www.seatcupra.net/forums/showthread.php?t=57607&highlight=ipod+aura :) I've changed mine since when I got a video so I made a dock for the ashtray http://www.seatcupra.net/forums/showthread.php?t=88014&highlight=ashtray Works a treat but I'm going to have to put it back to...
  3. Got XENON HID ? See this ...

    I think you have him confused :) What he means is if the car is manufactured with them on then it is a requirement of the manufacturer to have a self levelling device and washers. Aftermarket as you have done does not have such a ruling.
  4. Got XENON HID ? See this ...

    So what exactly is the video telling us? That HID bulbs are illegal or just illegal when they are misaligned and will fail an MOT? If so whoopee what's new? I've got HID on my Hayabusa and the beams are clear and focused and passed an MOT. I don't get flashed but I do get seen which has to...
  5. difference between cupra and fr tdi

    :D Would you like to see a note from my mum?
  6. difference between cupra and fr tdi

    I'm just shy of 70K in mine, brakes were changed at 60k service (dealer's suggestion) MPG is around 40-45 but I don't hang about. It's a company car fully looked after and will be looking to change later this year when it reaches 90k-ish. It'll be a bargain by then ;) Oh and FR is better...
  7. Brake Calipers

    I painted mine 3 weeks into ownership with Hammerite red smooth and they still look good :)
  8. Leon TDi FR or Cupra (You Decide)

    But the FR looks nicer with better alloys :duck:
  9. Cleaning The tailpipes

    I use the green abrasive side of a washing up sponge pad on mine. Gets rid of the black stuff ok.
  10. Dissapointed - Leon FR

    FR is top at the moment but would like to try a vRS Saloon but I went to the local dealer and they said no where had a demonstrator! I might try and push for an A3 but it would be down to my Director to approve so I may need to do some more sweet talking!
  11. Dissapointed - Leon FR

    Question for mklock - how on earth do you get a 3 day test ride? :D I'm also in the period for choosing the next one and will need to test drive one soon.
  12. Exhaust shine

    Another vote for wonderwheels! Can be brilliant stuff on burnt on residues. Howeverm I normally just use a kitchen sponge with a brillo top.
  13. Stylance TDI DSG Vs FR TDI

    It works well with VAG tech's V6 Turbo Audi TT :)
  14. Stylance TDI DSG Vs FR TDI

    Thanks guys. Did you look at the FR aswell? I will of course be organising some test drives for myself but I wanted to hear some real world opinions / tips before I go in. Does anyone know if there any plans for the FR to have DSG?
  15. Stylance TDI DSG Vs FR TDI

    I am on target to change my car later this year and with ordering times as they are it maybe sooner than I think. Top choice for me so far is to just upgrade from my current FR but I notice that for similar money you can get the 140bhp Stylance with a DSG box. Has anyone got an opinion on...
  16. Leon Cupra FR Diesel Advice at 50k

    Mines just gone over 62k now with no hiccups. Only minor complaint are some annoying rattles.
  17. Back pain

    This is a bit worrying. I am looking to change mine later this year and the new FR is top choice so far (Octavia Vrs close second:duck:) I know exactly how you feel as the A4 I had previously did exactly the same. You could almost time it to the minute. I've got leather seats in my FR which...
  18. Leon ashtray iPod dock

    Just thought I'd drag this old thread out as I have now done the same-ish! I didn't want to have the front changed so decided to mess around with the back. The Ipod's upside down but I set the thing on shuffle mostly and let it play so it's not as important to me. Some pics.. Using a...
  19. iPod cable into glovebox

    I put my Ipod in the ash tray:funk:
  20. Revo Trial - A cautionary tale!

    I had Revo on my previous car (A4) and forgot to turn it off with the SP1 at one service. I paniced all day incase they blew my waranty but I didn't here a peep!
