I bought a 1.8T Leon sport when it came out at 'X' plate, this was 16K & 180bhp, the cupra then was 18K, still 180bhp but with leather, dipping rear view mirror and a few other bits I cant remember, CD changer I think, then they launched the Cupra R at 16K and a new cupra with new bumpers at '52' what a blow, I had to get the 'R' it didnt put me off seat, I saw it as a fantastic advancement in what you could get for your money, I ended up paying £15,500 for the 'R' when I had paid £16,000 just 18 months before for the 1.8T sport. I would avoid any sport model in the future, in this case I waited for the Cupra & now run 318bhp for less than £20,000 including the upgrade, a steal really.
