    Splitters Fitting a MK1 Leon CUPRA R splitter to a Mk3 Leon CUPRA (pre-facelift)

    This guide is for MK3 owners who want to fit an MK1 Leon Cupra R splitter. This guide was done on my CUPRA but it should apply to FRs as well. The splitter should fit other MK3 Leons, but I can't confirm you will get exactly the same fit as the bumper is different. Parts list MK1 Leon Cupra R...
  3. LCR FMIC questions

    Hi all, Been looking at fmics for my LCR BAM 225 as I'm planning to go straight to stage 2 once all this lockdown business is over. Being high mileage (150k+) and not wanting to ditch out a fortune, my end goals for this car are in the region of 280-300 bhp. I've seen a couple Airtec FMICs...

    Badge Help

    I've just received these in the post today: I'll be replacing the weathered looking R emblems soon, but my LCR has no Cupra badge at all. I ordered the black lettering as mine is a 210 but I didn't think that the LCR had the little flag part to the right, but instead would butt-up to "R"...

    Climatronic Display/Controls FUBAR?

    Next in my list of things to sort on the LCR is the Climatronic display and controls. Parts of the temp display don't show up (sometimes are faded, sometimes are missing completely). This includes the "Auto" message. Also, the temp control buttons feel stiff, as if someone left a can of Cola...

    Sourcing Carbon Fibre LCR Parts?

    Guys, I'm looking in to replacing parts of my LCR210 with proper carbon-fibre pieces. I say proper, because I don't want any of that carbon-like cheap nasty stuff. I'm not looking for weight saving as such, I just want to give the car a touch of class. As such, I don't want anything chavvy, if...

    Toyo Proxes

    Hi guys, I need to replace all four tyres on my LCR210 as they're all getting low and the grip is just gone. A few guys at work recommended Toyo Proxes, but when I looked I realised that there are loads of different ones, such as: Proxes T1-R Proxes T1-S Proxes 4 Proxes CF1 Proxes R888...

    Mpg

    What sort of mpg are you LCR 210 drivers getting? Looking at getting one but the only thing holding me back is the fuel consumption. I live in Bucks so plenty of hills to climb every time i go out. Anyone have a similar situation, and if so what sort of fuel economy is your car doing atm? i have...

    Leon Quattro (Revisited)

    Guys, I've just been reading up on this old thread to get some answers to some questions about the 4WD Leons, and it's not 100% answered everything for me. There is talk in there of various mods that can/could be done to a FWD Leon to make it 4WD, as well as making a LHD Cupra 4 in to RHD, but...

    Rebadge Debadged LCR

    Guys, When I bought my LCR it had been mostly debadged. There are only R badges anywhere, and I'd quite like to put it back to original. I may miss off the Leon badge itself as I've never been a fan of the positioning on the LCR, but I'd like to put the Seat and Cupra badges back on. I gather...
