When SEAT give me about £20k trade in on a 3 year old Mk2 Cupra.

These latest hot SEATs have got far too rich for my pocket nowadays. I'm sticking with what I've got for the moment.

Thank god, I thought you were gonna say you were gonna get an MX-5 instead

My gosh those seats are LUSH.

Cant help but think they could have done better on the outside though.....

 

[shaun.]

them seats with the black backs look amazin looks like an awsome care overall to be honest

 

[markgb]

They should have made it more aggressive, like the K1! Looks too ordinary for an "R".

I like the grey 'R' badges, they'll be going on my MK1 LCR to replace the fading red ones

Also i'll keep my eye out in future for the front seats, again to go into the MK1.

SEAT can however keep the rest of the car.

What you dont fancy the engine??

I like the spec, the seats and the alloys (wonder if those with some lower profile rubber in gloss black or gun metal could look sweet on my boc). As other have said I think they could have made the car look a little more hardcore!

power output is promising, Styling is still typical VAG bland tho

it doenst look as fast as i should.

 

[Mr_Dave]

the rear diffuser and exhausts look like a max power addon.. don't suit it at all when the rest of the car looks so plain.. those gloss black backs on the seats are absolutely cringeworthy.

Couldn't agree more mate! Was a bit dissapointed by its looks to be honest! Bet with a few mods it'll have tarmac everywhere shitting itself tho!

 

[Pander]

Quite like it overall but the front end, in particular there "agressive" idea of a bumper isn't quite agressive enough. Silly rules with headlamp height and pedestrian impacts look like theyve scuppered what is nearly a stunning looking car.

That SEAT video is awful, especially how it was shot in widescreen then squashed lol, makes the car look even higher up and narrower than it is. Truly terrible marketing, you wouldn't see Ford, Subaru or Renault doing that.

As for the car, well if I had that sort of money I'd get something else - and I'm a SEAT man. I imagine it will be a massive flop. SEAT are dying and VAG wont let them do things properly. Very frustrating.

Saw one at my local SEAT dealer and my god it looks so nice.

 

[Shans]

Does this come in 4x4?

 

[andycupra]

no.

its what you call trying to compete with other hot hatches and failing to understand what one it.

As usual looks like its on stilts a million miles up in the air..if you're going to make a hot hatch then grow a pair and fit proper suspension instead of pandering to comfort...that's my opinion
