New Owner - Spare Wheel

[skidd]

Just got my Cupra R last week and noticed it has no spare wheel in the boot. The car was second hand and the dealer say's he is ordering me one. On thing concerns me, he say's it will be a space saver?, is this correct, how does a space saver fit over the front Brembos?

I am so far enjoying this car and the way it drives, previously I had a modified Civic Type R. This is better to drive as it doesn't need to rev like a scalded banshee. One real annoying thing though. THE DASH CREAKS LIKE A TOWN SERVICE BUS!!!!

i thought the spare should be full sized??

Spare is a full size on an LCR to clear the Brembos - Welcome to SCN

This forum is fantastic, two speedy responses in two minutes. Just phoned the dealer, got him over a barrel on that one. That is great as I was annoyed at one wheel being badly kerbed anyway!!.

I have read other threads, the dashboard thing seems common, but annoys me as the rest of the car has that AUDI feel.

As far as i know, its not only a full size, but its actualy an LCR alloy too identical to whats fitted! The LC had a steelie though.
