The Low Countries
Hey

My name Siewert and I live in the northern part of The Low Countries near the city called Groningen.
A long, long, long time ago, my first and last Seat on the driveway was a Giugiaro Styled Ibiza 1.5SXI Porsche Powered.
After that i drove Mazda 323f 2.5 V6, 1 Korean and 3 French cars, the last one was the last frenchy ever due to a lot of issues three broken turbos and last but not least a blown up engine due to a broken oil pump, so now it's time for a Spaniard again.
Since dec 2019 i own a Leon 5F MK3 1.6TDI 2014 with a 155k (km) on the odo meter.
Car comes with almost every option besides lane assist, adaptive cruise and no leather upholstery which is not a must either.
I know it's not a Cupra but for me still usefull to be here on this forum.
Main reason for me to sign up is for getting ideas and just reading and seek for solutions if needed.

Do have a few things in mind that will be changed or adjusted overtime.
But it has absolutely no hurry or priority.
Can't do to much as it's our family car and my wifi has something to say about it to, help!

Nice car, welcome to the forum.
Thx...

This morning all interior lighting converted to LED.
Wanted to do license plate lighting but thought it was to bright to be normal bulbs and turned out to be LED after inspection.
Footwell lighting in red color while i did the rest in pure white including the Fog lights.
What a difference this makes, footwell lighting is chill in the red.
Also activated the "Free Car Alarm" via OBDeleven
