Hi All,

Well confirmed, today have bought a black mk3 Cupra!!!!!!

This is the beast in question, although it is slightly photoshopped where i have lowered it.

42k miles, £6.2k totally standard bar the wheels...

Minted....really happy with it.....few questions though....

1. The car beeped and coolant light flashed for about 2mins upon start up (from very cold). Restarted car after warm and it was fine. The owner says it always been like this. Im guessing this is purely a coolant temp sensor knacered and needs changing?? Will the expansion tank need changing as well??

2. Handles on the doors on the inside (not the chrome ones) but the arms that you grab to pull the door in were a little bit worn. Are they an easy part to replace? Someone has had a ring on whilst closing the doors i think...

3. He has had a problem with speakers blowing in the rear. Has changed them twice and keep blowing, is this a known issue or just need to buy the correct speakers?? :) Any recommendations for the rear???

Thats all at the moment :)

Any more help or pointers to look at when i get it next week would be great!

Rich

PS - It's going in for a full cambelt and water pump service once i get hold of it at midlandvw :)
