So glad to finally see a Cupra delivered and photographed in Silver - looks better than I hoped. Is this Ice Silver or the Urban Silver. Been told mine will be Urban Silver so interested in what you have?

Still trying to get used to the electronic handbrake still can't trust it's on when stopped. Drove the mrs car the other day got out and left the handbrake off lucky for me it wasn't on a steep hill.

If you press and hold the lock button on the key for long enough it will close everything. Similarly, if you press and hold the unlock button it will open all windows and sunroof as well as unlock the doors.

I must say that electroni handbrake is very good. First time I have it and i like it very much. I always use auto hold function, so basically never press any buttons when I park. Lets see how does it work in the winter. :)

Yes works very well in auto it's the fact when you drive a car with a manual handbrake you forget and just jump out the car.
And end up chasing it down the road Lol

Yes I know :). I many years ago I forgot to use the manual handbrake. Thank god there was another car (Volvo) otherwise, next stop would have been a lake...

Looks even more awesome. Was expecting it to be lighter than this and it seems to have a nice blue tinge (or maybe just the camera/light). I'm shocked that not many people have gone for this colour as it was the standard no price option when I ordered mine and you now have to pay extra for it.

I wasn't getting that excited about the colour when I ordered mine (having not seen any proper photos of the 300 in Silver), but now I have seen how good yours looks I'm starting to get excited again. My car is sadly waiting at the dealer ready for 1st Sept plate registration and it's killing me! :cry:

Yes cheers mate you will not be disappointed when you get it, the alloys really stand out in this colour and also relatively very easy to keep clean and mark free.

Could of waited myself until the new reg came out but with it being on lease decided to get straight away, already had the local boy racers in there saxo's slowing down when they pass my house for a quick look lol.

Still waiting for my 4Drive 300 ST, which I ordered without having looked closer at one IRL. But since then I have seen several 4Drive ST's on the road and in parking lots, and what strikes me is that suspension sits way higher than on my current 290 ST. I reckon this is to do with the all-wheel drive system, but still think it's a real shame. Looks not so sporty at all, and presumably damping is generally softer too. Makes me wanna bring on lowered replacement HR springs. Anyone have experience from comparing old/new......? / RB

Mine arrives in a couple of weeks.

Will be a big step up in power and comfort hopefully from my Fiesta ST!

Can anyone recommend any decent insurance companies? I've been in the company scheme for 15 years, so haven't got a clue who is decent.
