Leon Cupra ST Carbon Edition Anyone...
- Thread starter Maypack

If I'd seen this a few months ago I would've snapped it up! Perfect spec!

Ok thanks,the heated seats are desirable for me,the others don't matter as much.
That red car is a good buy but I still prefer the Carbon,not interested in the roof (also I assume it's the same system as the Octavia which some have had a lot of problems with) or the enhanced sound system.
Is it really a heated reservoir? Had winter pack fitted to all of the last 4 VAG cars and none have had heater reservoir. Particularly annoying as when I lived in Germany and it was -20 deg C, it took almost two weeks for the reservoir to defrost whilst car parked in the garage. Only use neat VAG washer fluid (-70) in winter now, as the heated nozzles are no use if the washer fluid in the reservoir / pipe work is frozen!
Going to miss the heated screen on the current Octavia.
I’ll take a picture of mine...Ahh... written in the specification sheet... must be true then
I’ll believe it when I physically see the heating element in the reservoir.
Alright, stop rubbing it in... still waiting for the unicorn of the motoring world to confirm its build week!
Is there anywhere that gives full spec details for the Carbon?
I think the bucket seats are heated,but does it not have the rest of the winter pack?
Also,does it have a space saver spare or just a repair kit?

My whole family has sat in your car
It was the first (and only) Carbon I’ve seen in the flesh. Not seen mine yet!The spec is just a standard 300, with buckets seats (that are all heated), and the main the exterior bits.
There is no space saver (I looked it’s jjst the gunk)
There is no led light wash. So no winter pack.

Thanks,that's what I thought really,except disappointed at no space saver...will have to buy one,if there's room for it to fit in?
Yeah for the same space there to fit it. I’m planning on retro fitting seat sound, so will want a spare wheel.
Off topic,but not happy that manufacturers can get away with that gunk stuff that often fails.
IMO they should be legally obliged to supply cars with a spare.
What do they gain with no spare?....they save a few quid and put 0.1 on the mpg due to weight saving.
Then they want £200 or so for what they always used to supply free.
Pathetic!!

I know this but forgot, however it’s stupid as it was the same reason given for the Sub8 upgrade
If you read the manual for my 280 it says not to put the space saver on the front axle because of the impact it will have the VAQ electronic Diff.
So even with standard 340mm brakes you have to put the space saver on the rear and then put the rear tyre on the front if that’s where the puncture was.
Need to know what’s in the back of the Cupra R, as that has Beats Audio so a rear sub but Brembos.
As Damo says,if you have big front brakes and a space saver then you have to do a juggling exercise if you have a puncture on a front.
Some years ago I had a Civic type R FN2 and this is what it told you to do in the handbook...bit of a faff but better than being stranded.

If I hadn’t already got my hands on a carbon I’d of put a deposit on this...

This has me depressed, cars are so much cheaper in the UK. I paid more than that price for a 1 year old 290 5dr with 40,000KM on the clock. That's an unbelievable bargain
If you bought from the UK would you have to pay taxes on arrival back home with a car?
