Saw your car on auto trader and it looks good in black with those wheels. I thought I would not change from a manual but the DSG is very impressive.

That's my concern making the jump to the dsg first auto car. As im not local to crewe they have said if i dont like the dsg on a test drive i can get my deposit back. I must say the guys at crewe have been very helpful.

300 DSG ST, bought from a dealer with just 1500 miles on it. Had it for 6 weeks now (just under 1500 miles later) and, as a first time Seat owner, I must say I'm really impressed. In comfort mode on my daily commute, it's easy to get on with. It not the most economical vehicle I've bought, but I didn't expect it to be!

It's practical enough to get two complete sets of golf clubs, complete with cart bags and electric trolleys, in the back without dropping any seats.

And in Cupra mode, it is insanely good; never fails to give a 'cheesy grin' and is a lot quicker than most people with hot hatches realise, especially when they think they have you beat....

Very nice...we were looking at mystery blue if we had ordered one but the grey looks good too!

Seems a good upgrade deal you got there. Please report back on what you think of the 4drive compared to your 280.



Hi Ll2J
Picked the new car up today and so far very pleased. Haven't pushed it too much just yet so can't fully appreciate the 4wd but it did feel much more composed and sure footed from a brisk take off than the 280. Very impressed with DSG box. Coming from someone who's been in a manual motor for 30+ years its been something of a revelation driving with this. Will report in depth after a few more miles.

JD, the car looks gorgeous! Looking forward to the in depth comparison with the FWD 280. My 300 4Drive will hopefully arrive in August.

Looks very nice!

If it's not too much trouble, could you let me know the dimensions of the boot floor, length and width, without the seats down?

Cheers

Hi

I'm new here, but I picked up my new Cupra 300 ST in desire red 2 months ago.

Done 2k miles in it now and it's a brilliant car! the only annoyance is the axle tramp if you pull away too hard.

Definitely a step up from my previous car with 125bhp....

Erm... not many!

It's far too tempting to thrash it! I'm sure the novelty will wear off eventually!

Still averages 30mpg though.

Hi Jim

The boot floor measures just a few cm over 1m length and 1 m wide.
Hope that helps.

Hi New here as well. Picked up my new 300 ST yesterday and love it..... I have driven SEATS since 1999 when I had a Toledo VR5 and have gone through a succession Of Alteas and Leons. The last one was a ST FR with the 184 Diesel engine.

Hi folks. Can you send an email in to [email protected] and we can do a full quote for you.

Just a heads up though, 2 years is getting the cheapest deal. We are running with a 249 249 deal which is on a 5 door manual cupra with met paint doing 8k per year. There is a £178.80 admin fee that applys to the PCH deals
