Presumably this is from a magazine, guessing about these things.

Maybe its guessing, maybe knowing, who knows. Last October I posted a similar roadmap which was quite accurate concerning Leon Cupra. The magazines can have some inside information. It would be quite strange for a magazine to put up a schedule with different car brands of new models just as "guess work" (table format), but time will tell what the Cupra R time schedule will be :).

There was a pic posted on here on a seat Leon in white when the Cupra rumours were doing the rounds , it was a four door , had 2 exhausts at the back one either side like the new Cupra does but was badged as an FR , from the looks of it that's what the Cupra is looking like.

This might be off topic saw this couple of weeks ago and I think ford is making the new Fiesta RS look very aggressive. I hope SEAT get this kind of idea for the R limited edition or something.

A similar style to the A45 AMG Edition 1 make it look a bit eye catching.

That A45 still does it for me. Maybe in about 4 years time when some used ones come to market. The drive in them is absolutely amazing!

Look at this SEAT styling kit on this!

Looks like a styling kit for the new leon! This would improve the bland looks of the new cupra no end :)

So you can now buy the Cupra rear bumper and exhausts as an add on option?

Doesn't really make you feel like you have just bought an exclusive top of the range model (Cupra) when you can have an oil burner looking the same.

Cupra should have come with side skirts from the factory and had exclusive rear bumper and exhaust layout.

Really like the look of that Fiesta it looks nice and mean, although I agree about the number plate comment.

When I get a few minutes I'll stick a number plate on it and see if it makes it look less aggressive. I thought that when they made the Evo X thought sticking a number plate on it will look rubbish.
