Hiya guys

Just wondered if someone could help

Taken delivery of my new Cupra today and I expected it to come with silver Seat badges and the coloured Cupra badge on the grill but it's come with the gold badges and the Cupra badge blacked out. Am I right in assuming this is what they are putting on the new models, cheers

I saw some pictures from members on here with a 68 plate and they had the copper badges.

Great colour choice. I would be interested to hear your thoughts on the car and how to drives

Cheers for reply

I saw a 68 plate recently and it was silver and coloured badges so I suppose it depends when it was

Only done a few miles in it today and really like it. Had the Polo GTi which I loved but I have to say this is very sturdy on the road and seems to drive well so far. The Cupra mode does sound well though, my 18 year old son was more excited than Christmas Day!!

Ah yeah, I wonder if the badges changed from a particular build week

I think the copper goes well with that blue

Sounds like the car has made a great first impression

Yeah I've got a silver 68 plate with the original silver and red badges. Picked it up in December so probably one of the last. Changed from BW42 last year. Enjoy your new motor.

I do like the silver badge and coloured one but sometimes you can't always tell between that and the FR so having the copper one does make it look different

Hope you've enjoyed yours

Are the 2017 facelift Leons keyless now?
Only if you get the Lux pack, there's about 4 things different including wireless phone charging but non of which I was bothered about for an extra £20 a month on my lease

To be honest there are bits I like and dislike about both. I like the black lettering on the back and the black flag on the front, just a pity they didn't put a similar black flag on the back (or on the steering wheel). I do like the red brake calipers though. Yeah loving the car so far and haven't seen any other Cupra on the road since I got it. Happy driving!

Yeh I agree with that, mine doesn't have red calipers which is what I would have liked, they're black. Up until seeing one recently I've not seen one at all around where I live

Did you take out any maintenance on your lease?

I'm of the same thinking that the Lux pack doesn't warrant for me the extra money per month
