Just a bite on reading the odometer. Same on normal leon etc. You can’t read the odometer without fully turning cruise control off. good to hear you are enjoying the car. Shame about the stuff but at least the dealer is sorting it for you.

I was a little anxious buying a SEAT to be honest. I had a Mk2 Leon, in my 30 months of ownership (from new) it had 2 gearbox replacements! A friends Ibiza Cupra, 6 months old, was, by SEAT assistance deemed un-roadworthy due to a fuel leak and had to be towed to a SEAT dealership for repair. I'm hoping that I don't get these problems with my Cupra, but a lot of the "fit and finish" issues with those two cars seem to be addressed with this car.
Pretty sure you can get the mileage in one of the left or right display sections of the digital dash with cruise control on. As for the gearbox lag, just use it in semi auto and then it's always on the gear you need. Or in auto if you're going to put your foot down and you are currently in a gear doing low revs then just blip the left paddle once or twice as you plant your foot.
Aw I was actually hoping the Cupra wouldn't have that. My golf did and it used to drive me nuts, I'd come to a stop the engine would shut off and the twitchy person in front would nudge forward an inch and it'd spring back to life again! Seemed like it was wasting more fuel than it was saving!
I find myself getting pissed off with the cars in front riding their clutches or moving for no reason. My engine shuts off and a millisecond later the car in front nudges forward causing the engine to restart. Just an extra thing to give me road rage.
If you ever so slightly move the steering wheel it also kicks in!
Yes. There's a button to turn it off but it doesn't latch in the standard Cupra so you need to turn it off everytime to do a journey.
All of these quirks make a car to an extent.
Try turning the wheel when start stop is activated and it’ll turn the engine back on.
What happens if you’re in drive and stationary and simply press the stop button. Assume in engages neutral?
I’d try it on ours but we don’t effing have it yet do we.

I sometimes forget if I've pressed the keyless stop engine button when I've parked up, only to turn the engine on again!All of these quirks make a car to an extent.
