Hey folks,

After my on-off-on-off love affair with SCN (well with the cars mainly!) over the years I am back yet again in another SEAT!

This time...

2009 '59' Leon FR TDI 170 2.0 CR
Black
Xenons, Front & Rear Distance control (with OPS)
RNS-315 Sat Nav
Bluetooth
Auto Lights / Mirror

Really pleased with it, had to drive up to Liverpool to get it, wonder if the previous owner was on here ? As he apparently traded it in to get a Cupra.

It's in great condition, bit of wear on the driver side seat (bottom bolster towards the door part) so I might get that fixed when I get heated seats fitted.

Was getting 48-50mpg on the way back so very happy there. I noticed it's a really quiet engine for a diesel! And very smooth power delivery, kinda reminds me of the 150hp FSI model I had earlier in the year in terms of smooth power delivery.

Xenons seem a bit low down pointing, on a country road the visibilty was not great, although I suppose I was being optimistic in thinking they would light up the whole road ahead :D is there any adjustment options in the highline display? (I would check now but just got in and knackered after the drive there and back!)


Also, the disc for the navigation was in the RNS, when I took it out the navigation did not work - can you copy it to the unit like you could on the 510?

Mod plans...

Heated Seats! - Not retrofitting panel switch/changing seats, but just getting a company who takes off the seat covers, fits in the elements and switches, then retrims/refits it, they can fix my seat wear as well at the same time.

Sweeping dials via VCDS - I take it I can do this? And also, it's not going to make it break is it, when the dials sweep every time you start the car - just paranoid one time it will just get stuck! :lol:
