    Stiff clutch and brake pedal release on Leon Cupra 290

    Just bought myself a Leon Cupra 290, but I just feel like something is off with the pedals. I'll preface this with the fact that I've never driven a "sporty" car before, so maybe there is an element of getting used to things. Also it's a 66 reg but only 24k miles and it' been sat around a lot...

    Squeaking noise from rear left wheel

    In the last few weeks I’ve noticed a squeaking noise coming from the rear left side of my car, a cupra 290. Basically it’s when I’m turning left at around 15-20mph and I’m really not sure to what I could be, it’s not related to the brakes as it happens without braking. Any ideas?
