    Long Term Ownership - your thoughts?

    Well I am nearly 3 months in now (ok.. so not long long term) but I had a thought today about my old Focus. I just don't miss it one bit :D I am now more in tune with the Leon than ever these days. Got the perfect driving seat position I haven't changed for months. Everything just works and...

    How long..

    Have you all managed to go without spending money on your Leon? I've only had mine 6 days and already i've managed to buy a new aerial, wipers, mud guards and a damn sweet keyring. I have a sneaking suspicion this will be the cheapest week ;)

    How long do brakes last ?

    a 54 plate TDi just approaching it's 30K service. A couple of times in the past week I've felt a judder in the brake pedal when heavy braking. Now I think it's just ABS at work, but made me think that apart from the usual oil & filter changes it's had nothing done to it since new. Will my...

    Hey fellas, what is the max lifespan (mileage) of a well looked after Cupra R engine? Can they live 4evere??!! :think:
  10. How long does the engine last?

    Hi all. I was wondering what the lifetime of a Cupra engine is likely to be. I drive an MX5 and people have gone up to 200,000+ miles without any problems to the engine at all. They are just fed their yearly dose of oil and they are happy to carry on. So what is the likely lifetime of a...

    How long have you owned your Mk2??

    Reading the 'you know you've got a Mk2 Ibiza when' thread made me think despite all those characteristics, we still love our Mk2s. So, who has owned a Mk2 for the longest? I bought L930JCF ten years ago from Southern Garages Seat in Camberley, and 73,000 of my miles later and the odometer on...
  12. Ibiza Long Life Servicing

    can anyone tell me if its possible to swap my partners 1.4tdi from a short to a long life service. She currently does 20-25000 mile a year so bigger service intervals would help. However whats the price hike for long life services and will it have any detrimental effects?
  13. FR - Long wait now over

    Took delivery today of a not so shiny Red Tdi, and to be honest I'm gutted re the quality of the car. It's arrived (after 16 Weeks of waiting) with a faulty MFD, and one of the rear alloys having been kerbed somewhere between Sunny Espana and the not-so-sunny East of Scotland. The interior...

  20. is it just me? (very long, sorry!!)

    That has bad luck with garages? Every time my car goes into the garage for some work, either a service or mot, it comes out worse than when it went in. I won't bore you with past problems, but the most recent is winding me up.... Took the car for an mot to Farmers of Leicester, who are...
