Ordered a new Seat Leon Cupra today

[Eri]

Hi Scott,

Inferi black is indeed the purple black color and yes the price is
the same as the other metalic colors. (I believe it was around
€ 560,00)

You don't have to apologize for your questions, i am very exited
about my new car and i am more than happy to answer some
questions. (when i know the answer of course)

Cheers,

Eric

New Seat Leon Cupra

The new SEAT Leon Cupra, planned to launch at the end of 2006 is a car born on the track, but belongs on the road

More info expected in November, probably to announce the European launch, we expect UK info soon after, but don't expect to see them in any volume here until January/February. There maybe some demonstrators/press cars landing in December.

All of what I have said here, is based on the snippets of info, we've crow-barred out of SEAT over the past few months. But certainly November should reveal more info.

Do we know a price?? any discount for 2nd time buyers!

Ah yes, the Marketing brochure - that will be the one I have stapled to the wall at work to tempt me every day into having the latest edition!

There was a press release issued last night by SEAT UK, about the sales figures.

http://www.seatcupra.net//seat_news/seat_uk_news/seat_sales_forge_ahead_in_2006_449.html

They slipped in the Cupra at the end of the press release. So as i've said above it works out that it will be a Jan/Feb UK launch, which does make it more viable for being a Novemeber European launch, so more info isn't too far away.

From Eric..

The price in holland is € 33.995,00 - this FR overhere is € 29.995,00.



So this is about a 13% price hike from the FR.. guess if this difference is applied to UK cars it will work out about £19261 (approximately!!)

Guess this is what was suspected anyway (i.e under the magic 20K figure, and competitive with stuff like the Focus ST-3).

 

[sportbilly]

£18,995 I reckon.

 

[LEON_FR]

£18,995 I reckon.

I think it might be a bit more you know. i rekon around the 20K...

They have to be concious of the market segment they are in, Golf GTi, Focus ST, Astra VXR, Civic Type R. So pricing will be paramount in its success.

Im thinking more like BeeSix, in the 19k region. It obviously depends what they come with as standard, but on the most part we believe they won't skimp much on how the car has already been presented.

Guess i will have to wait til the LEON MK3 comes out and SEAT start a new 0% finance!

SEAT UK will want to make sure it undercuts or matches the competition that you mention, but they have to negotiate the price with SEAT Spain, which I know is not a quick and simple process.

But it is a process I'm told is nearly over

[sportbilly]

Then we have a group buy discount to calculate ... I wish.

 

[Ruddmeister]

I wonder if you will be able to buy the Aerokit front bumper for the Cupra

 

[sportbilly]
