Seat Leon Cupra 180bhp

Well the Leon didn't come with a 150 bhp engine unless it was a diesel ...

 

20vT non cupras are 150bhp arn't they?

 

Just a way out suggestion, but have you considered the Octavia vRS.


I've owned one since June and can honestly say it is a fantastic car. Both Autocar and evo have proclaimed it to be the best performance bargain of the current VAG range, with evo giving it 4-star.


Has the 180 bhp engine and you can pick up an early one for 6k.


Alternatively, you can pick up an ex-police vRS for about 5k. Often these have been chipped to 225bhp.


If you can look past the badge, the Octy vRS is a seriously good car. As witnessed by a tailgating A4 driver last night!

Thats what i thought tbh!!!!

Mike - Tell me more about ur mates one for sale!

 

have a look on seatenthusiasts.co.uk (though i think its changing over to seatcarclub.co.uk) as well

From experience when a mate was looking for Leon Cupra he found it prety hard. Good cars, for me personally got to be a canary yellow with the 17" 5spoke alloys but dont like the new FR

yeah it looks pretty hard to find one, of course my money will only buy an early one, but the later ones look nicer!!!

Its a hard game to play!

 

Ibiza mk3/4's are cheaper i think (not really looked for them) but id prefer the Leon myself. Ill have a wee look up here at whats goin. Keep your eyes on the ScottishVag Site as well - mite get some info there or even one coming up in for sale section (if your prepared drive to scotland for one though!)

Cheers dude, il keep my eyes peeled, are you saying theres something up for sale soon on scottish vag ???

 

had a look, nothing at mo but its a growing site and just making you aware of it incase something does come up. Will Keep you posted if see anything

 

thanks very much dude

real dilema, coz i want a decent one for for 5-6k but its difficult to find anything, u can find 2002 facelift ones but they are HIGH milage....

bit of a pain really!

 

check www.kaimparkgarage.com
theres a yellow one on it for 6995 although it has tragic cupra decals and shockin wheels. Its also on autotrader so price may be bit high

 

cheerds dude, the cupra wheels are awful i agree!!! The decals are awful!!!!!

 

mite get it cheaper if you played on that fact but first impression is it mite possibly have been ragged by a boy racer cos who in there right mind would put them on!

 

yeah it looks f**ked tbh!

 

If it was me, I would go for the Skoda Octavia vRS instead. Much nicer car, better interior and very nice drive, plus bargain price

 

But it has a Skoda badge on the boot and bonnet

 

One previous owner too.. Stevie Wonder by the looks of things

 

Just get them to remove them before sale. There only decals.

 

Just checking... is that a Cupra???
