one thing mate hold out for diesel cupra, dont know why you sold the 1st yellow one, was a minter

Have a word with GK Seat in Derby, sure they still have a Red Ibiza Cupra (in TDI form too I think). We had a test drive in a red one there which was for sale and then also had a new one unregistered. Sure it was there last monday when mine was being serviced.

Edit: looked nice in red too, and you've not had a red one yet

 

[mrcoyote]

Buy my Ibiza instead. You know you want to.

I think the TDI Cupra is a statement, and feel the only way you can put this across on the road is either "Racy Red" or the yellow. Just an opinion, but it is the flagship model.

 

[Stephen O]

Had a look on Gk's website, no mention of Red Cupra for sale? Or on the seat Website??

 

[MrMischief]

Hmmmm I think red makes the car look cheaper.

I was going to get a platinum one at first, but the black one in the showroom was calling me...

My colour preference :

1st equal black/platinum grey
2nd yellow (looks great too)

163rd red

Im going to go and see the car's in the flesh and then make my decision. But im still leaning toward's yellow at the mo.

You can always by mine if you want.There are a few scratches but nothing abit of T-cut will not sort out.

 

[Stephen O]

Holy Moly!!! Thats a mess, real shame! Hope you got out of it ok? So is it a write off? Hope not cos insurance companies always screw you on price! Whats next then if they pay you out?

 

[devonmikeyboy]

I am O.K just really gutted and pissed off. It is a right off and yes the insurance company will probably screw me over. Really loved my PD Cupra but i have been thinking about getting a VW Golf GT TDI 4motion.Theres only two reasons for this;
1 The new Golf has a 16v diesel engine that i can get more power from then the 8v in the Ibiza.
2 The 4motion comes with 4wd so no traction problems since i was having trouble getting the power to the road in my Cupra and even though i was going to get a Quaife fitted soon it would never grip like a 4motion car would.

 

[Stephen O]

Since my Cupra deal didnt go through ive been also looking at Golf Gt Tdi Mk5's. But they are so plain compared to the Cupra

 

[stoneyfordNI]

i wouldnt say that

That's gonna hurt...sorry to hear you've written off your beastie, looks like it stood up to the roll ok though, did it roll in a field as looks like it must've been a soft surface? What speed (roughly )?

Are you going to sell off any of your (surviving) modded parts??

Think the 4motion would be a good move, if you get it all to lock up

Are the tdi's a must? if not then why not wait for the new VW GOLF GT with the 1.4 turbo and superchaged engine? not sure what insurance group is but low tax and pretty good mpg for a petrol.

 

[Stephen O]

Yeah i need a smog meister, Golf sound's mad! Turbo and S/C!

does sound good, imagine what it would be like after a few subtle mods and custom code 2? It think that they should have put that engine in the new polo gti rather than the 1.8 20vt just to be different.

According to most tuners i have spoken to, the new 1.4 Super turbo is not gonna be very tunable. AMD just said, " not gonna bother"
