best of luck richie what year, colour and where are you going to look at it
have a look through this its quite helpful

here's a link to the advert for it mate http://search.autotrader.co.uk/es-u...cleYearOfManufacture=2004&vehicleRegLetter=04

only problem i can see is that im ideally wanting to trade my st in for 7.5k with 9k miles on the clock but i would take 7k for it if it means i can drive the leon away, dunno if a garage would be happy giving me the car and some cash my way, i'll just have to play it by ear i think

what do you think? cheers for the link i'll have a look at it tomorrow

yeah it does need a good scrub especially the engine but im handy with a wash mit and a clay bar lol

really needs to be a dealer tbh as im not wanting the hassle of selling my car then going and buying a leon, im really really impatient when it comes to cars

got a few others lined up if this one falls through but they are only cupra's

i was thinking that but i had forgotten about the water pump, advert says fsh but obviously I'd check that too

cam belt should have been done at 60k if im right so if it hasn't i'll defo walk away

well i said I'd update this once i had went to look at the car, bad new is its been sold good news is i may have found a black 55 plate just need to get the dealer to confirm that it is an r and get my mods off my current car

had a shot of my mates Saab 900 that is putting out somewhere between 220-240bhp and all i can say is, i cant wait to get a car with similar power. my st is so slow and boring lmao
