Yes everything and cut a bit out as well. No crash bars ect ect. New owner knows all about it and wants to track it so good luck to him. Hopefully back in a cupra by Christmas if is nice.

So Santa didn't bring me an fr,cupra or even a Leon but I did go from golf pd115 to a golf pd150 mapped to 180/90. Still looking for a 1.8t sat in a leon though.

I did my last Leon and yeah it does make a huge difference.
I contemplated polishing the headlights on my latest addition but I discovered 2 broken mounts the other day so I think I'll buy some new headlights instead.

Got rid of the ugly foggy headlights
Taped the paintwork around the lights, cleaned with Gyeon Glass, polished 3 times with Mothers Mag polish then buffed on Carlack Glass Sealant

They look great. Did you polish by hand or machine?

Yeah. I thought about it after posting and realised it had to be machine polished.:think:

I opened my bonnet today and found:
One split boost hose (I had a brand new spare in the garage!! Lucky me!!)
A small coolant leak from the coolant flange.
Oil on top of gearbox. I need to do my rocker cover and camshaft half moon gasket but I cant believe these have coated the gearbox. I renewed the whole PCV system last year so not sure where its coming from.

More jobs to do. These mk1 Leon’s are really starting to show their age:( I should have left the bonnet closed.
