Must say I prefer the tech and look of the new golf to the new seats which pains me to say

The estate has five doors

Suppose you are correct

Why only 4WD on the ST though?

Space I guess, although the 5 door golf manages it.

To not compete too much with the Golf R three and five door? The Golf R estate on the other hand is perhaps not selling as well as it looks a bit too practical? The ST though looks great for an estate imho...

oh....now that sounds cool.....

I think it'd just make me want a golf R if the seat is only ST, estates are a desired taste

From the article, it says that the 4Drive Cupra ST comes with DSG. Pity there's no manual available

Yep, saying its space restricted is just a cop out, they've clearly been told by VW not to put 4WD on the hatch so it doesn't impact Golf R sales. Very disappointing I really wanted 4WD for my next car may have to look elsewhere now.

Space was something I suggested not SEAT

Anyone know if cupran get Dsg dq500

The vaq diff in cupra 290 is a great piece of kit so upping the power to 296bhp won't be much of an issue,however it going to 296 bhp then offering it with 4 drive doesn't make much sense,at least make the 4 drive circa 320-330 bhp,so it's making full use of the 4 drive system.
Vag politics I suppose.
So surely the golf will follow suit with 310 bhp then the s3 with 320 bhp????
Got a feeling the virtual dash will make an appearance in the cupra.

So will the FR model be having this monstrosity in the middle of the grill? Who would sign off such a design?

The German configurator shows it as default - even when cruise control/radar etc isn't selected. I'm hoping it's a mistake?!

Probably just a glitch in the Seat configuration, it never seems to work very well and they never seem to rush to fix any glitchs with it.
I'd imagine it would only be present on cars ordered with ACC/ traffic jam assist.
On the bright side it's not on the roof and spinning round like the early self drive cars

As it means I'll be able to let the car take over and drive/steer start and stop in mind numbing stop go motorway traffic, I personally wouldn't care if it covered the whole grill
