Real Bocanegra pics

[mardon]

Not sure if this has been posted but here are some pics.

It looks nice.

Not liking the alloys or the fact the seat sport calipers at a £1100 option!!!

Here is a link to a slide show:

Sorry, but i prefer the normal cupra and fr. Its too black

I agree.

If it was some 300bhp+ hot hatch monster then the black nose would be cool as it'd show that you've got some serious **** to bring to the table.

as it is, it just shows that you've got more money than sense

Think i'm gonna get one. I really like it.

The alloys are poo on the new range though

i disagree, the one's on the sport are nice (i am biased though)

For the price it should come with the "racing" brakes, side skirts, spoiler, etc
Gonna wait to see what they look like in the flesh, go on a test drive, and see if it really worth getting. Currently drive a 1.4 DAB, so it would be a step up in any case.

The rims shown in the above pics are called SIRA and are extra at a cost of 1300 euros
Here are the standart ones for the fr

those are much nicer.

Yeah, but would they fit over the racing brakes?

Going for a test drive in 8 weeks.

Sorry I ment the Cupra range of Alloys. Those alloys pictured are nicer but i'm not paying extra to get the alloys on the lower spec model (no offence). I think 18's are needed like in the concept pic's.

They can stick their £1100 for decent brakes up their ar$e, robbing c*nts.

 

[mardon]

Crazy isn't it!! Tell you what, if I get one i'm taking mine off the cupra (brand new pads and drilled grooved disks) and swapping them over. Not even sure if the new cupra has the TT sized break disks!!

Really IMO this new cupra needs bigger wheels, seat sport breaks as standard, a subtle spoiler, stiffer springs (apparently its quite a mellow ride) and OPTIONAL auto box!!

These are also the standart rims for cupra. But cupra has these in silver and you pay extra to have the titanium rims or double price for SIRA rims.

The origional pics I posted have differnt alloys to yours. I've also seen pics of the first UK cupra with the same alloys as in the pics at the top. They are different to the FR alloys (and not as nice ether).

The pics you have posted are called SIRA and are a 1300 euros extra that comes with seat racing brakes.

 

[mardon]

Ahh! I see.

So its 1300 euro for alloys and breaks or 1200 for the breaks and 1300 for the alloys?

If so thats is INSANE!!! Even the 19" Rage alloys for the new Civic type R dont cost that much and they look 1000 times better!!

 

[vtxracer]

1300 for rims and racing brakes for FR and Cupra. The bocanegra has the SIRA rims as standart but not the racing brakes

 

[mardon]

Ah they'll have to sort some kind of discount for the Bocanegra upgrade then. Its £17,000 on its own here!!

I'll be looking into getting one of those removal map box's asap if I get the car. You can get them for the sirrocco. 1 performance map, Standard Map and Economy Map. The box can be removed and will leave the standard map.

I know the 1.4tsI can be mapped to 210BHP. That would match the front of the car then

 

[vtxracer]

Dsg has a limit of 250nm. Only ABT is offering a remmap for the 1.4 golf dsg at 190ps+ and 280-290nm

 

[mardon]

Thats a real put off for me then!!
I have read about remaps for the golf GT's with the 1.4TSI which can go to 210bhp. That must be without the DSG though.

Dont think i'd be happy with car staying at 180BHP. I'm used to 200 and bags of Torque!!
