As above really. Can anyone tell me what tyres are fitted as standard on the optional 18's for the FR? Also, what size are they?
Thanks

Petrol FR I tested was fitted with Pirelli P-Zero Rosso and the diesel FR had Bridgestones. Apparently both tyres have been approved to be fitted to either petrol or diesel Leon FR. Probably depends on what they have to hand in the factory....

I just received my FR TDi 170 and it had Pirelli P Zero's fitted, so NeilW is most likely right on the button...!

Muchas Gracias Amigo!
I plan to get some more pics up there in the next week or so, showing the Aluminium Door Trim and (if it ever arrives) the honeycombe grill under the "S" badge. These pics are available elsewhere, but I'll catalogue so everyone can look in the same place if they want. I'm also going to put in the Infinity speakers and will try to document that...for completeness.
You will not be disappointed when it comes. The only thing I think is a bit naff on the car is the flimsy glove box...it should have been much better...my LCR's (sob sob) felt so much better, and it was lockable.

Can't wait now... the only thing that disapointed me when i test drove the petrol FR was under the bonnet. In the old Cupra it opened automatically without having a flimsy arm and it looked much more impressive under the bonnet... is the new diesel same layout as the petrol?
Also hows it compare for speed over the Leon Cupra 150.. is it faster? I have read that the 0-60 is on par with the petrol FR but they arent publishing that for insurance purposes.. can't see how thats possible?

That is one nice looking car Archie. The PZeros are very good tyres, I have them on my current car at the moment and rate them highly.

Some manufacturers measure 0-60 on an empty tank with one person on board, some do it with 3-4 people, luggage and fuel - obviously this helps insurance nicely!
I'm not complaining - I know my Ibiza's a rocket, but its only group 8 insurance
