Ok ok, I know it's not a Cupra, but given that insurance companies rape young drivers, I settled for a 1.4
Had it over a year now and so far not done very much to it. But here are some pics as it is now, and I have a few things...

Hi my first post, im test driving a 55 plate Cupra 17k miles tomorrow, just looking for some advice on what to look out, those little things that are different with every car, possible common problems etc. Any advice would be much appreciated
Hi,
Booked in for a CC remap tomorrow, cannot wait. !!!
My insurance is nearly up anyway and was wondering if i should tell them about it, if i have a smash i can hardly see them checking the ECU . Just getting the general opinion as I would normally tell the insurance co. about any mods...
Hi guys, I'm planning on viewing a couple of LCR's around 90miles away from where i live and would like some advice on the following...
*52 Plate LCR 210 on trader for £6800,FSH with 32kmiles,yellow
This seems low price to be honest as far as i know and therefore i'm a little sceptical as to...
Wish me luck... I shouldn't need it though. Unless it fails on something stupid. I'm most worried about the horn. It sounds pathetic and you have to push in exactly the right place and at exactly the right pressure to get it to work. Even the one on my scooter sounds better!!
I haven't been...
out with the old :( gonna miss it, had it for 2 years and about 3 months
this is my new car :), pick it up tomorrow after work hopefully
sorry about the poor quality of the pics they were just taken tonight outside the garage, not the best camera phone and the car hasnt been valeted...
Picking up my new FRTDI tomorrow, zenith grey, 18s, Winter Pack, Conv pack & BT.
What's best, take it easy or floor it for the first 1000miles?
Th elast thing I want is to see a DPF light on and be accused of driving it too softly!:D
Cheers
I've got my LCR booked in for a Phase 2 Custom Code remap tomorrow. I can't wait wait to see what the difference is over a Phase 1! My car was sucking 197 g's with a Phase 1 so it will be interesting to see how much it sucks with a Phase 2 :clap:
As per question.
Got to work nights tonight, but going straight from work to collect my car, after having a quick stop at sainsburys for breakfast. :rolleyes:
So any one else collecting?
Sup,
started putting my alarm in from my Volvo. SHOULD be pretty easy, got most wires done, still gotta do indicators etc but the immobiliser that was in there previously gives me alot of help as to where the wires go =]
Will let you know how it goes =]
I'm driving down to Coventry to pick up my new Cupra Tdi tomorrow night and canney wait! :) It's platinum grey with 52k on a 54 plate. I'm hoping that the drop in performance going from my Civic VTi-S will be made up for by the more comfortable ride and cabin and the torque on tap, not to...
The car is going on the rollers tomorrow with a group of people from another forum I visit. It's a mini event being held at Janspeed in Salisbury. Never been on their rollers before so I have no idea how accurate or reliable they are, but it should be a good giggle.
So, who wants to start a...
My car has developed the fault below, its a 1.8t DBW AUM engine which is basically the same as the AUQ fitted to Leon Cupras. I'm looking for common areas which cause these problems, so I can focus on them. Obviously I'm going to have to strip bits off and do visual inspections, but any tips...
Collecting the ibiza gti 16v tomorrow and i can't wait.
Problems it currently has:
The notorious electric window issue, you have to push the passenger side back up. Is the expensive to sort? Im guessing it needs a new motor?
Dent on the back bumper
Cracked passenger side mirror cover...
I’ve got my Mot tomorrow guys, I always find myself getting a little nervous before my Mot as you never know what they might bring up ( well I don’t as I’m not too mechanically minded) Fingers Crossed it should pass, I mean the car has only done 6000 miles in the year.
I hope I’ve no...
Welll
I am a happy chappy. i will be picking up my TDI FR 170bhp tomorrow:D
I unfortunately sold my TT due to 20K miles a year and a company car was the sensible option, so the Seat Leon was my choice.
Mananged to get a good lease hire deal through the dealership
So getting a...
Hi,
I have been browsing the forum for a couple of weeks now as I am test driving a leon tomorrow.
I feel like I am already an expert on the car after reading all the info available here!
If I do buy, I will certainly be adding some subtle mods. At the moment I am looking at the...
