what did you and your mk3 leon do today

[Fred99]

Today i was driving through one of the many long tunnels down here (I know they are rare in the UK) and was overtaken by a Ferrari 458 Italia at full pelt - wow, the noise was to die for - forget crappy augmented speakers behind the dashboard!

I really want a Cupra but if I had the dosh it would be that Ferrari!

Arrived home from Spa, 427 miles to a full tank without trying.

Pics or it didn't happen

Amazing feat though, was that driving like a grandad?

Don't use that phrase please, as I am still quick even though I have grandkids.

Cruise control the whole way sticking to the speed limits so usually 120-130 km/h

Today I found myself grinning like an idiot as I cruised up the M1 on my morning commute with cruise control on and the SEAT Sound system belting out some top tunes.

 

[andrewpain]

does sound good, doesn't it?
have just got hold of Jeff Wayne's War of the Worlds, downloaded to the USB, and played it today.
Boy, does the SSS do it justice

Knocked myself out of gear going over a cattle grid at 40mph. Guess I'll slow down next time! Disconcerting with no drive - had to come to a stop and turn it off and on again....

Scanned it to log all the bloody fault codes! It has 4 now.

Thanks for reminding me, I must check mine to see if
1: they cleared fault codes yesterday when they diagnosed the gear selector fault
2: see if any more have appeared,

Picked up a winter wheel set.

 

[askew]

Decent price? Looking at getting some smaller wheels / taller profile winter tyres... not got a clue where to start.

Not particularly the Cupra needed bigger wheels so there 18's but they look nice IMHO

On my FR and SE I ran 16" wheels which are now on ebay and here for sale.

 

[askew]

Might take a peek

 

[andrewpain]

I got hold of some 17" dynamics, and am having the Nokian winters fitted tomorrow.
So there'll be even less room in garage.
anybody want to buy a running machine? Space needed......

 

[simonali]

I've got 6 winter tyres in the garage, four on wheels and two spares that I tried and failed to sell, as I wanted collection only...

 

[andrewpain]

I'm guessing that's a "NO" to the running machine, then?
