Hi all
I’ve just come back from taking my 290 down to the Amalfi Coast. Cupra driving mode on the mountain roads was a hell of a lot of fun! I switched to PS4’s before the trip and so glad I did. The car felt so planted in the corners and with the countless u-bends, hearing the exhaust pop and bang on the downshifts against the mountain edge was amazing. The car just seemed to feel at ease at the limit. I mean there were a couple of twitchy/squeaky bum moments but never felt like I wasn’t in control of the car.
Now there’s a few thousand miles on the car the exhaust has definitely got louder. And the Agip 97/98 fuel had some very loud bangs going! I’m sure I’ve read people using other European fuel and noticing the same?
So was just curious as to the best roads you’ve all taken your MK3’s? Would definitely recommend Italy with the twisty mountain roads, lots of tunnels and beautiful scenery!
