The rear camber needs to come out as the backs set at over -2degrees for the old wheels.

Other new had andrew carr over for a tweek, the car is now mapped mafless, this has transformed the car.

Youll notice the original plate, £12 for two plates for one days driving. Lol my plate goes on tomorrow.

Im finally getting somewhat like with the car now

Did you by chance use to have a pre facelift Leon Cupra? I think I recal a thread on seatcupra.net were you got the facelift boot lid and the LED lights, one of them was damaged, you got it for a Bargin and fixed it?

Am I thinking of the right person? Lol
