Ever cloud has a silver lining!!!!
I need to look into downloading to my phone so I can access via Android auto. Nothing quite as bad as NTWICM, I don't think!

We do have some great roads up here for a spirited drive... don’t expect to be the only Formentor though, there are a few around here now.

Grow up and fire via your cell phone your playlist or.. whatever. Thanks to Lord that CD/DVD/BR are out of cars.
Hahaha. I do use Spotify, just became a bit of a tradition of mine and the family to stick that particular CD in at Xmas time haGrow up and fire via your cell phone your playlist or.. whatever. Thanks to Lord that CD/DVD/BR are out of cars.
Are you sure that family isn't terrorized by the chance of playing 'that CD'? ROFL....
Cockermouth is 8 miles from where I live. You’ll definitely see a few Formentors if you come up the coastal route to Cockermouth. You’ll actually pass my local dealer B&H Motors.

That’s brilliant and a great idea. When I can’t work it out, I’ll reach out!!
Today was the day lads of something I have been eagerly anticipating, I've just took the VZ2 for a quick single carriageway dash to local shop to pick up some essentials. Pulled back up to my drive (fence on one side, house on other). Was just playing with the ambient background lighting. Put onto ' drive profile' setting- cupra in neutral I thought ' I will give it a couple revs, took it just over 3000 rpm and I got some grumbles and pops out the exhaust. 
. Very enjoyable only did it the twice as I'm still in ' not revving too hard mode'. Very enjoyable to hear and i guess made it all the better the sound bouncing off the house and fencing.
One thing I did want to ask though is.. do the exhaust valves open fully in individual mode if you set it to engine- cupra. I don't think they do.. get the Immediate performance of engine and gearbox but I'm don't think you get the sound of the exhaust

You tried flicking the gear selector down so it goes from D to S? That might do itToday was the day lads of something I have been eagerly anticipating, I've just took the VZ2 for a quick single carriageway dash to local shop to pick up some essentials.

. In the R it's always the quick way to improve throttle response if you suddenly need to overtake and were in Normal or even (shock horror) Eco mode.You tried flicking the gear selector down so it goes from D to S? That might do it
I will experiment with individual mode engine on cupra and put it into S. Im trying to keep out of S at the mo as trying to stop from over revving too much. So I just had it in N on the drive in cupra mode and gave it a little tickle and it was nice to hear the grumbles and pops.You tried flicking the gear selector down so it goes from D to S?

Is there an engine sound setting? Not sure if that is fake sound generator or valves. Depends if there is a separate sound actuator setting.Today was the day lads of something I have been eagerly anticipating, I've just took the VZ2 for a quick single carriageway dash to local shop to pick up some essentials.

, best not to just yet then.Yeah there is an engine sound setting and that is for the fake noise you get pumped through the cabin but there is also a separate setting engine- which is your throttle response. If you go on individual mode and configure it to have the 'cupra' engine but the 'comfort engine sound' you get the performance of the engine in cupra mode without the fake noise. But what you don't get however are the actual valves in the exhaust opening fully. You have to be in full sport mode or full cupra mode for that.
