Looks great Eri, and makes me sure i made the right colour choice. Just need it to turn up sometime this year :p

I told you so Mark, but i can tell you that foto's don't do the color all the justice,
you've got to see it in real live. I know you'll find it awesome. (especially in the sun) I hope that you will get yours soon.:funk:

Cheers,

Eric

I've seen SEAT UK's show car, so ive seen the colour. But their car looks like its been polished with sandpaper and then had dust thrown over it for good measure.

That colour is just gorgeous, just lush!

I so wish that was an option on the FR - I ordered red yesterday. If inferi black had been an option, there would have been no question that I would have had that.

I am sorry what does coilovers mean. (you're asking just a stupid dutchie)
Reading the rest of your question, does it have anything to do with the suspension? When that's the case my car has a lowering kit from Seat Sport and the brand of the kit (just springs) is Apex.

Cheers,

Eric

He means your suspension,

Coilovers look like this, and are stiffer more motorsport like, firm ride but great handling:

FSD's are more like a standard replacement damper. But better all rounders because they firm up when you push it for fast road driving, and soften when your cruising for a more comfy ride.

However you need to replace the springs too, so hence Eibach replacements.

cheers guys, koni fsd & eibach springs coming my way,
bizzare that seat can sell suspension upgrades to diff countries, heres me thinking the euro union would do away with that.

Its because of UK Standards. SEAT UK must put all accessories and parts through an evaluation to pass the safety standards required. Its a UK law thing more than it being an EU thing.

If they supply it and warrant a part, they are legally responsible for it. Putting stuff through testing and getting it type approved, takes time and money. But they are always looking at increasing the aftermarket business, its where they make more profit.
