The previous owner used Votex. After having seen their idea of adjusting suspension geometry, I'm not sure I'd want to go there myself,

Never had any problems myself, what have you seen? They don't touch suspension geometry

You are absolutely right, and your argument is so compelling that I think you should apply a rule change next time you are playing Top Trumps "Rare and Awsome Cars" with your friends. It could work something like this:

Friend #1: "Power 180bhp"
HallycupraR: "Power 225bhp"
Friend #2: "Power 265bhp. I win."
HallycupraR: "No I win because mine is yellow and yellow is best because it's best."
Friend #1 and Friend #2: "OK fair enough."​

I am now off to buy some Ovni in rattle cans and correct the horrendous error I made in wasting my money on a black Leon.

I think not sure but I detect abit of sarcasum then but glad u agree end of day person choice on colour, yes the onvi has paint fade but it a colour that stands out an says look at me an the lcr deserves that in my eyes

I personally couldn't give a flying f#@$ what colour my car is, I bought it because of it's condition, low mileage & price. I was in the market for an LCR so I just looked for the right one, regardless of colour. Yes, i'm a sucker for a black car but there are so many people who mistreat the paint that when it comes to the second hand market, a good example can be hard to find and black being the most popular of maybe all car colours, low milers are also rare. This is especially true around my way where I am one of only two LCR owners in the area it seems (the other happens to be a poorly cared for black one ), they aren't a popular car here.

I wasn't aware of the paint fade when I entered into the VAG family but then again when I bought mine, it wasn't faded at all. It was however my decision to respray it in it's original colour to freshen it up and i've not looked back.

Each to their own and all that but I don't think the LCR looks out of place in any colour, they really could have done with making one in white. As for black, the colour blends, you can't deny that but I think the LCR bodykit sits it apart from the rest .

Bottom line, enjoy the car for what it is, how it drives & its potential for improvement!
