Its unregistered with deliverly mileage.

Yeah I bet keeping it clean will be a task. It will get neglected though in the winter, or I might just have to pay the local handwashers.

dn't you mean the local handscratchers? Please don't - that would be verging on criminal:cartman:

Good man! Full spec i take it? :)

I dont know what its coming with actually. I told the salesmen that it didnt matter to me, as lo ng as it was white and a k1 I would be happy.

I know it has got the ipod kit and bluetooth but other than that anything else it has will be a surprise!:D

I bet you can't wait to get your hands on it!

I'll hopefully be graduating to the mk2 Leon section of the forum in the summer when I start my placement job. Cant wait.

Probably wont be anything as exciting as a K1, thinking more along the lines of 1.4 TSI or 1.9 TDI, Stylance or Sport with the BTCC kit. Looking forward to it allready!

Nice car mate, and hopefully given the motoring industry troubles I hope you worked them hard on the price as they are giving sweet FA back on them when you take the buggers back.

That will feel like a huge step up from what you had. Have you considered a driver training session or advanced driver course? (not saying you can't drive well, just noting you will be able to extract the maximum from the car as its a hell of a piece of kit).

I plan o driving the thing not playing with gadgets. Plus I.C.E wise Im gonna be ripping all he standard stuff out anyway and going for some top end kit, therefore expensive options are pointless. ;)

I don't know much about the K1 but.. leather, cruise control, climate control, central locking, alarm, full eletrics, sunroof, some form of dash trim (I got wood lol), vanity mirror, trip computer, heated seats.....................................

I guess I just like to fiddle with things......

EDIT: 18 inch alloys, bi-xeons.. otional!

Id imagine the k1 has most of that.

Even the Leon Stylance has most of the stuff on that list. I know you never got a SEAT but if you did you'd find they all pretty well specced. Even my 1.4 mk3 Ibiza has digital Climate Control!

I was Looking at a 1.9 TDI PD130 Sport.

It had nothnig apart from climate control, PAS and eletric windows and a trip computer.
Tbh I wouldn't say they were 'well specced'

Hmm yeh I think the mk4's had less equipment than the mk3 Ibizas.

I got front fogs climate control electric windows, 6 disc cd changer, rear spoiler etc, doesnt sound like much but IMO mk3's are well specced for their age.

The early mk4's didnt even have lights in the boot.

But with the Leon and thing from a Stylance upwards is very well specced. Cruise control electric fold in mirrors, and the windows can go up and down from the key remote.

Cant wait to get myself one.

Dash trim is for old mens cars anyway lol as are heated seats.

Well the k1 wont be driven as hard as the ibiza (odd statement I know, but im tired of buying new brake pads and tires every 5k miles.) so once I decide to track it I might get some driver training for that as im always happy to learn more. Although I am already a extremely quick racer, 2 of my local tracks im really close to the track records, and I often beat the guys who kart semi pro and take it very serious.

Unless you mean advanced driving for the roads? If so then no, I dont think I will.

One thing I have noticed in the K1 is that its fun to cruise, in the ibiza it was dreadful, and with the constant gear changes to keep up to speed you would sorta always end up going somewhere in a rush.
