I traded my Leon Cupra in for a WRX PPP.

In some ways I miss the Cupra as it felt a more solid car than the WRX which I feel has a cheap feel to it. Don't get me wrong there is no comparison performance wise or driving experience wise but the Seat felt more solid to me.
Can say I never felt unsafe in the Cupra - its not the best handling car in the world but it can hardly be considered bad. Interior size is pretty good and the boot is quite large (fold down seats)

Not much difference in fuel economy but the insurance was £300ish more for WRX PPP.

In the 20k miles I owned it (imported from new) I had no issues at all with it.

I would not buy another Petrol Cupra, but would get a diesel - I believe the 150pd is coming soon.

I see you are considering the Integra. Have you thought about the Civic Type R already ? (or is that a silly question).

Definately a top car IMHO (albeit flawed) and can be bought for about £12k nowadays.

Toonman1 you must be the most unlucky Cupra driver ever.

I know people that have had the Cupra for a couple of years now and never had any of those problems ?
