Was looking, now New FR owner,

[Rob66]

OK, this is probably more like it>>>>>>>>http://www.seat.co.uk/generator/su/uk/SEAT/site/Service/used-cars/linkpage.html

I'm on my way to see it in a min, I will be there at about 13:00 ish.

What do you guys reckon?

I will take my lappy and check to see what you all say when I'm round the corner from the dealer.

Wish me luck.

Ahh bum, the link doesn't work,

It's a 58 plate red fr dti with 18's, sunroof,bluetooth and ipod for £14900

Good luck with it buddy seems like a good deal to me, i have Bluetooth and is worthwhile for the better looking display and the extra functions if nothing else. I also have Xenon and although good, would have the BT over them and just get some Halfords Super Brilliance bulbs.

Check the Alloys well some have experienced paint flaking off.

Rob

ps you say you are south coast i am often in Sussex if you want to take a look at anything on mine.

 

[Nath.]

Well I've bought one today,

58 plate FR DTI in red, 18's, electric sun roof, bluetooth, winter pack, convenience pack, 3300 miles on the clock, a service, cupra mirror covers, private plate transfer and a tank of fuel. £14500

TBH if they actually do the service I will be shocked. they will prob just stamp the book

Should pickit up sat morning..............

 

[mhill]

Where did DTI come from? LOL

Looks like a good spec & price, was this the one from Bristol?

PICTURES!!!!!!

 

[markmeus]

Congrats Nath! Bet you can't wait till Saturday. Looking forward to some pics

 

[Nath.]

It's from Bartletts Seat in East sussex.

 

[philaw]

Good deal I think, still doesn't beat mine, for a mere £1,200 more - I got a brand new one! It came with full SupaGard inside and out, 18"ers. No bluetooth, but I'm deaf - so I wasn't interested. Nice thread, a lot of contributors, advising and stuff. One question - why does the Seat bluetooth option come with so much more? My wife's Renault has built in bluetooth - it's just a handsfree phone! (When it works).

 

[mhill]

Any plans for mods then Nath?

Any plans for mods then Nath?

Remap
Black middle section of front bumper
Maybe LCR splitter
The dealer is fitting cupra mirror covers as part of the deal
Shades holder..............trying to find out if the one from the Ibiza will fit................
Maybe HID's
S3 horn but maybe the FR comes with a twin tone one anyway
Second flip key
Maybe mud flaps

Just basic stuff really and anything that I read about on here that catches my eye.

I won't be doing any suspension mods but please suggest any mods that I might want to consider as I'm a MK2 noob.

 

[markmeus]

Arm rest, chrome dial kit, and aluminum door and speaker trim are nice mods.

For someone with a mk3 Ibiza i think I spent too much time looking at the mk2 Leon section of the forum lol

 

[Nath.]

Is the arm rest any good? Does it get in the way of the handbrake?

 

[markmeus]

Not sure TBH, probably best to ask someone who has it, but I don't recall reading any complaints about it interferring with the handbrake.

 

[ross27]

The armrest is great. First thing i bought for my Leon.

It sits perfectly and is comfortable. The armrest is shaped around the handbrake, so it is not intrusive!

Nice one Nath, saw that one when I passed the other day (Hastings)- looked just the same as mine without the xenon - good choice

PS

Armrest is great well worth the money as it the interior Ali effect kit.

I'm guessing it's a better design that the A3 one then - this completely obstructs the handbrake - you have toreach around it to operate the brake and if it's too low the handbrake won't come up properly.

I still like it though!

Couldn't find a clean petrol FR with all the toys I wanted, The diesel will have to do.

 

[Moley RUFC]
