My Leon Cupra
 
Just sold the Scooby and bought this;)

Standard 180 brake it goes well, my plans are to give it better handling and give it a ecu upgrade as i plan to have a couple of trackdays next year.

Anyone had one ;)

I've got one!

Got it instead of my old ST, no where near as quick (and doesn't handle as well) but its 60bhp down on the ST. However with 210-215bhp its still shifts and overtakes most things effortlessly, and as I have the pre-facelift (debadged) which looks like any other normal Leon its a real Q car and surprises a lot of people!! ;)

Wife has had one for a few years hence why I got one, good fun to drive, but a million times better with a rear ARB, front upper and lower strut braces......

I've owned a Cupra and a Cupra R in the past and both great cars :thumb:

I had a a silver 04 plate just like yours, owned it for a year and it never missed a beat. I actually sold it to a nice guy on Pistonheads but within two weeks it looked like this :eek:

Just went up in flames in the middle of the night due to an electrical fault, taking his next door neighbors garden fence and shed with it!

Not that I want to worry you or anything ;) :lol1:
