I spoke to my local dealer about an Exeo only last weekend and he said that they were told on a recent demo week in Spain "Categorically, if there was going to be a Cupra model of the Exeo, it wouldn't be for at least 3 years and probably not until it gets its first facelift and the price has come down a bit"

Which is a shame as I'm currently looking for a motorway cruiser and really wanted to stick with SEAT, purely for sentiments sake, but it looks like its going to have to be an Audi or Merc.

Will it be called a Cupra R? I thought they had now pulled the R bit?

There will be a new leon cupra r at the end of the year/begining of next. It remains to be seen whether it will come to the uk or not!

If SEAT release a new Leon Cupra R, and then snub the UK (probably their best hot hatch market in Europe), I think it may be an insult too far for UK buyers who also never got a shot at the Cupra 4 Mk1 Leon.

In a time when car companies need to shift metal it would just be buffoonery not to launch it here in a country that loves its hot hatches above all else.
 

JB!

its just an A4, in drag, so a 4x4 floorplan is already in existance complete with tooling... seat would be idiots not to build on their sporting brand by not making a hot version...

Cant see a r model they are appealing to the fleet buyers mind you the way SEATs designs are going with the Leon they probably will have a 300bhp model and make it look as boring as possible

If you check out the pics from the European meet, there's a very tasty looking estate exeo. Rather meaty! Not sure if it's modified, but looks standard advertising them?

its a shame how SEAT are stuck with older platforms and detuned engines...would be great to have an RS4 beating SEAT and id sooo buy it... i was considering an RS4 as a possible next car
