Too rightLol this has cost me alot over the years. Probably every 1here as well
... But if I'm honest, I've had more enjoyment out of my Leon's than any other car, & I've technically had far better, faster & newer cars.My OH doesn't quite appreciate my passion for them, just sees £££'s wasted & I get that, but I am very happy in my car & I find no other car even remotely gets a flutter. I'm just stubborn I guess.
No I think you have just found the car that is right for you and if you are looking at money how much does it cost to lease a new car or replace with a new car every 3 to 4 years vs spending keeping a classic on the road and I bet the more expensive new cars cost even more on the insurance.
Well I do like one thing on diesel leon's, they have a gorgeous MPG. I can't afford a 1.8 BAM 225hp MPG and surely can't imagine a 4WD pumping out the tank!! 
Completely agree mate, ive had a couple of imprezas, and bmw(not a fan at all) a couple of quick ford's but the 2 cars that I've had the longest spent the most defo cursed the most is the seat ibiza and this girl and I'd have it no other way, lolToo right

The pictures and write uo seams to be from when he bought it a year ago. Front tyres are now nearly bald. Rust holes in rear arches. It's a 500 quid car .

.
Just been over you way to look at the leon lolLol same but I'm northern we well know for being as tight as they come
7 hours driving.. right am home... I am not sure if he was living or not.. but basicly it's an 1.8t auq engine. Stand ko3s turbo. It had forge recirc valve and intercooler, fancy red hoses. But that was about it it had lots of aerosol spray patches. Rust comming threw on rear arches and holes. He said the previous seller was from Leeds and sold it to him as it was listed...
he did seam really put out with the truth . Says 4 new tyres . Front 2 need replacing and also on the current mot say they are low. As for the forged internals.. I guessing that also isn't done either .
I would personally wouldn't touch it.. but on face value its a 500 quid car

Ouch, a long drive. Sorry to hear that, a bullet dodged by the sound of it though.
