So as far as i can see the following has been removed

- Bucket seats
- SEAT Sound
- Red calipers

And if you want acc you have to buy the cold and horrible leather seats. WHY SEAT? Surely it would've made more sense to add the bucket seats to CUPRA Lux pack?
I wonder if these will be introduced back to the list as they test more Cupras?

I'm gutted about losing the Red callipers..(which are still in the brochure..) As they really set off the larger wheels.. more annoyed about that than the copper

I guess changing the callipers to Black makes sense with the Copper badging, black writing with the already black mirrors?

A mixture of copper hubs and red callipers would clash a bit.. hopefully I’m not on own here :blink:

I agree they'd clash.

They do have some design sense then! Just not enough.

Some of us would sooner have harder wearing leather seats especially for wiping clean with babies! Coldness not an issue as they are heated. It's a shame they did not do the buckets in leather otherwise would of been tempted.

Good morning to you and all - it is Old Giffer here! Ready for my first Cupra (4drive 300 ST) at 60 plus years old and like many held up in the emissions “situation” (as is a VW Golf that is on order for my daughter-in-law).

I am actually hoping that my build date is post week 42 - 15th October to have the confirmed 2019 MY version as I think that the copper will look pretty good with the silver (but others may disagree!)

Looking through the posts, I see that you guys (and gals I should also say) really enjoy your Cupras but spare a thought for the old fella trying to eek out 40 plus to the gallon and driving like “Miss Daisy” and just breeze past me with a wave showing me how it is done!

I agree it will look ok with the silver and the grey.. unfortunately most of us seem to have gone for blue, red etc.. and feel annoyed as this will not look anywhere near as good.. and I suspect Seat agree with that, otherwise they’d have offered colour options on the special editions that came with copper..

I see your point, I was having a rant last night. Hopefully they will change the packs further into the year as they test more configurations, possibly for the release of the MK4.

IMO I prefer Alcantara as its not freezing cold in the winter and sweaty in the summer. Also looks better after a few years as opposed to leather that goes wrinkly and shiny, but thats me.

Finally got a build week assigned for my 5dr.
Unfortunately though it's week 48 so I'll not be collecting this year.

Well at least it's being built to spec this time - although it's SEAT's spec rather than my own

Interestingly enough the CS agent at SEAT wasn't aware of the latest bulletin regrading the changes, however vwfs (fleet) were as they'd read the same bulletin as Scrogg.

Where exactly do we stand with all these changes?

It looks as though nobody has officially told us of the changes, my dealer only told me the colour change because I mentioned it and it was if it wasn’t a big deal.

Colour changes and anything cosmetic surely should be agreed with the customer just doesn’t sit right.

Agree on this, I'm less bothered with it being a lease, but if id bought this car id be fuming if it was not how I wanted it. Just hope my build week 38 has the winter pack and 7 speed dsg. Knowing my luck it probably will not.
