well after haveing 2 cupras for nearly 3 1/2 years i think im going to sell up

i realy dont want to but im so feed up of the constant issuses that pop up all the time i dont think ive had a trouble free year owning a cupra and am just so feed up of spending money on it now,if it ant a maf its a coil pack or a boost issue or the engine management light is on ect ect ect just so feed up of the unreliability of them

Thought about selling mine too mate.

But I always think what am I going to get thats anywhere near as fast for the money? So much I still want to do to my car that stops me from selling it alone only reason i don't enjoy it is because of the things that i have'nt acheived.......Would enjoy a car with traction though, but maybe coilovers/R888s/diff will help fix that ££££'s.

I do like R32's sound awesome too, even MK4s are like 9k+ for a high miler though.

Yeah, but that seems a fair price imo.

Mine would go up for about 5500 ono i reckon.

True, but after what I've now spent on mine I feel I'm better off keeping it than letting someone else have the best out of it for a fraction of the price. No one would pay what I'd actually want for it if I put it up for sale tomorrow.

lol also thought about selling mine too but most of my m8s say keep it and that i wont get anythin quicker for the money but i want a nice car that i can drive daily like a mark5 gti or somethin but i wont get half back from what ive jus spent on it so its staying for another year after ive had some good use out of it first, and if i wanted to finish the car as i want it its going to be about another 3k so not sure if i want to do it to be honnest.

Can I add mine to the for sale list aswell!? LOL.
Think I've been lucky with mine in that I've had now real issues that have bugged me. My only reasons for sale are the damn petrol costs, and I've had the VW bug since Edition and possibly fancy something old skool, or a bit 'querky'!?

I've never had an issue with my car and if I have, it's always been something I've caused. Like pipes blowing off a bigger intercooler I fitted!
As for unreliable cars, I've owned Rovers and NOTHING comes close to being as unreliable as those heaps!
