day

Hello All My wife just got a 2006 Leon 1.6SE. She keeps complaining that when its a sunny day she finds it really hard to see through the windscreen with the glare from the top of the dash. Any similar problems or even better some solutions. ( Apart from painting the dash with matt black...

Decided to give the car a once over as the weather wasnt to bad today, thought i would share some pics with you

As the title suggests, the yellow engine light has come on :( only had the car three days, f***s sake! So, what does it mean? Can I get into any sort of diagnostic to see what it's pointing at? Car is an 02 cupra, pre facelift if that makes any difference. Actually, according to the manual...

what would be a good set of tyres for normal day use ?

What a day yesterday proved to be...not only did I actually manage to hit 44MPG in my Cupra on my way home from work through doing a mixture of motorway and town driving!! I also had 3 offers to exchange my car with random people i'd never met, firstly for a '58 Golf GTI, then a '59 Clio...

I took my standard Leon 1.8T on a rolling road today everything was ok but the engine managment light is on now,I gather this will have something to do with being on the rollers. Any ideas???

Ok, been a bit of revelation for me this going back to a diesel. But the weekend showed that the cupra is super capable and that yes a diesel is surprisingly well suited to the nurburgring, in fact very well suited as the boxster S i was pushing round ( until he lost it trying too hard) will...

Am I going daft or had the Rolling road day section disappeared?

Okay, I vowed about 2 years ago never to run a track day in the ibiza again. but recently i have been getting p**sed off eith all the "lotus fairies" going on over here that they have the best cars in the world blah blah blah. SO..... my goal is: one final trackday. drop all of the...

OK, so the season is drawing to a close again, only seems like 5 minutes since we were all on the South Bank, seeing the Cartridge World Leons, and Mr Plato in his Lacetti go into action for the first time. Who's in, and heading for the South Bank then?

Does anyone have any info on whether I should vary my tyre pressures on my 08 Cupra for track-day circuit laps ? :confused: I suspect they might need to be harder than for std road use, but anyone with experience / data on this, - can you help ? Thanks

Well, i have had a sidelight out for a while, so i decided to change them. Easy enough job i hear you say... And it is. I put them both in and they worked, then i must have touched something, so the fuse blew, replaced and is fine... Then was just clicking in the passenger side bulb into...
