Did nowt in my Cupra 300 but MrsMaypack decided to take me off for the day in her Leon Xcellence and she complained that the “Bubbling” on her car wasn’t up to recent standards and that she wants it back.

Bubbling is otherwise I own as Beading but she finds Bubbling is better.

Looks like I’m in for a day of detailing tomorrow

Went out mountain biking, turns out the Cupra is a seriously practical car too. Plenty of room in the boot for my gear and the roof rack works a treat. Weather forecast is bad today so she'll get her clean tomorrow.

Vagsport V3 res delete pipe, RamAir turbo inlet elbow & silicone hose and a Pipercross foam panel filter...oh and my DTUK module with app control was delivered on Saturday too! Exciting times! Just waiting to have the car physically in front of me to check whether I need type 1 or 2 dog bone insert...

I removed the parcel shelf, boot floor and space saver wheel out to check if there is more noise on the MY19 Cupra 290. It worked, so much louder. I even heard a proper DSG fart or two but still can't seem to provoke it on will. The over-run pops and bangs are bloody loud, it's all drowned out a bit from the tyre roar but it confirms that the sound insulation seems to be improved on the new 290.

Thought I’d add in my first water beading pics. I don’t expect they’d win any awards but it’s the thought that counts.

Hello mate, is it possible you could link me to the steering wheel cover?

Hello, it was a custom job so unfortunately no link. Try contacting local interior and upholstery shop, maybe they can help you. Note that this is not standard black alcantara, it’s anthracite shade to match the seat covers and door cards.
Cheers

Remind me, what's an indicator?

Got a phonecall from my dealer that the car I've ordered cant be built. Got an offer to get a ST R instead, just waiting for the final price
Nice! Be interesting to see if it ever comes to the UK. But still suspecting it won't based on the number of Carbons on Autotrader. Shame really.
