Seat leon fr (black)

[Buzz123]

I am wondering if anyone with a seat leon fr thats black could help. As I am looking to purchase either a black or white one but the white are more expensive as that is the colour that people are after. Not to say that most colours dont look good as there are some cool bright colours out there.
I wanting to see peoples mods on the outside for example cupra grill and pillars and your wheels. much appreciated
Thank you

Buzz thought you bought a cupra after the expensive tuning lesson on the uss enterprise !!
I have had a black fr tdi and now a white cupra face lift , both colours desirable both a nightmare for cleaning !!! Depending on ya budget I would suggest a facelift fr as the common rail engine on the tdi is better than the pd , more fuel economy on the new engine and I belive less issues with the dpf , I did 30k in my fr with no problems with dpf even with the misses doing the school run of 2 miles a day !!

I went to buy a orange cupra and decided against it as I do too many miles would cost me a bomb everytime i went home ;/ cheers for advice

I had black fr and said to myself I'd never get a black car again...but I ended up with an inferi black cupra. Black looks soooo good when its clean, but its a nightmare as it doesn't stay clean for long

 

[Buzz123]

doesn't it get the little scratches showing up when you polish it?

Black looks great when clean but a nightmare to keep clean and does show fine scratches far to easily. Had a 1 Series and 3 Series in black and they drove me insane trying to keep them clean. Also found they could look smeary after a wax. Still think black looks fab just could not go through owning one again.........

As for white it is a breeze to keep clean and strangely I find it stays cleaner looking than my previous Silver Leon FR. White seems the best at hiding scratches and being solid any visible ones can quickly be polished out.

well I have actually been looking at this for some time. and think its a bargain. it also goes agaisnt my beliefs as I should really have a diesel car.

My first car a megane coupe was black. Looked great polished, but got dirty sooooo quickly. Not really a big fan of black leons. Look good with subtle mods, but could think of quite a few colours I would choose first. Everyone to there own. But I seeblack and yellow leon models go for cheaper than other colours

That looks quite nice, but i have 18" glossy black diamond classic to put on mine also still got lowering springs they were both meant to go on my 1.9tdi but petrol is cheap here. just thinking if i get it, cupra brakes are a must as in europe people cant drive for beep!

I am a big fan of other colours but thats what i found black ones go for cheaper plus save me money as i'll want roof black the lip black so its like cupra.

Smart what mods you got for your leon?

 

[asmart01]

So far I've got .. Twintake induction, milltek cat back dual outlet, sport line springs, turbo boost gauge, gloss black wheels
Still to come .. Btcc rear bumper fitted Wednesday! Wing mirrors painted black, grille painted black, downpipe decat and a remap

 

[asmart01]

Then rest of the btcc kit when I've got money and find the parts

 

[Buzz123]

I am bored of my btcc now :/ how many mpg you running with current mods??

 

[asmart01]

Sell me your kit then
Erm I'm running about 25 mpg average but that's with no motorway miles .. If I sit at 50 the mpg counter says im doing 40ish mpg

You cant go wrong with black and chrome!!! I have the lifeshine pack i think it helps a little compared to other black cars also looks amazing aftet a little haze of rain.
