Ive seen the following on piston heads

http://www.pistonheads.com/sales/2885065.htm

It seems clean (unknown mileage - i have emailed the Q)
The colour puts me off. It looks like an entry level colour?
I havnt seen a bright blue one else where? Could it be a standard tdi with body kit?
It also says Cupra FR? Its either one of the other right?
Does anyone have a bright blue and can show me more pics in better light?

Cheers

Here are a few (older) pictures of mine. It's quite a nice colour when its polished as its add far more 'depth'.

It's a Cupra at that age, not an FR.

Cheers mate - The blue does actually look nice out in the sun so now im more interested...
It does look slightly different in all your pictures though! What pic is more like the actual colour?

Well the colour does look different in different lights. When its sunny (from memory this ) its a bright blue.

However generally it looks like the darker blue as generally the weather is pretty overcast.

If you're a bit unsure then perhaps its best to give it a miss, imagine going for it and never being actually sure. I personally like it as its bright and it stands out plus its pretty rare so i've been told.

You dont get LCR in it either

Colour is stunning IMO but I would stay clear of this one due to the engine change and the car itself has still done 165k which would put me off!

Get the number plate off the dealer, then check with the DVLA website.

It looks a brighter blue than mine, which is Imperial Blue, S5N. If I had to guess, I'd say it was Extreme Blue, S5G, which was applied to cupra's at that time.
