Seat Leon Cupra 290
onwards and downwards form that beast surely!
Seat Leon Cupra 290
sold to anyone on here?
I part ex'd it for a saxo vts which i might keep as a run around for a while and then sell.
I got the vts + £4k cash for the car.
It was sold to Mehdi who used to have the mk1 on throttle bodies that's running 216bhp and is about 900kg.
Now i've gotta decide what I want to get next, whether to definately downgrade to a diesel or some shat or get something as quick or quicker than the 172.
Sounded and looked nice as he drove off though

No more clio's for me!
Sorry to see it go mate, didn't think you'd actually go thru with it tbh! nothing worse than see someone else driving away in your car when you've put your heart and sole into it, even tho you know its for the best. Been there myself
good luck with the VTS.

I am selling it for financial reasons, and I probably will be getting a diesel for a while but those gta's and many other cars are just catching my eye and making me think hard about whether its worth getting into a bit more debt to get one...
Don't know if it's worth it at 22 and a student with 2 part time jobs.

listen mate i dont know if its worth it at 27 with a mortagage to pay but you only live once and knowone can say for how long or how the latter parts of your life will be, the years go quicker as you get older there isnt really that much time to spend.
one things for sure, get that fast great sounding car nxt as diesel,electric cars are coming and petrol is only going to go up, our only hope is bioethonol less economy but 20% more power, easy to make the government will make loads on that (102ron) so we might be in luck.
but with pay per mile charging you may aswell go out with a bang, consider the next 5yrs of uk motoring the twilight period, you can always sell later on.
get a GTA ... ohh and put a autodelta quad pipe system on and carbon fiber intake, perhaps later on a ferrari throttle bodie (they sell them for the gta not too bad prices)

My mate recently bought a GTA. Its damn quick and sounds amazing.
Something that it definately isn't tho, is cheap to run... he went from owning a vRS to the GTA and his mpg is about a 1/3rd of what he used to get lol. Servicing has also cost him a fair bit too already.
Still, if you're after a car thats a little different and puts a big smile on ur face every day then I'd highly recommend it

make an already sweet sounding roar into a ferrari sounding symphony m8. you sex you pants everytime you open her up.
remember about me saying though it cost about £70-£100 more a month ^^^ that guy has just said 1/3 the economy and high servicing, insurance is also higher.
so my final comment is again, get one but go into it with your eyes open buying a low milege one in mint condition (about £16k) fully knowing the extra costs are real and noticebly higher also, at the end of the day you dont get a 247bhp 3.2 V6 hatchback (which is a proper sports car really but in hatchback form not coupe) and expect it to be a cheap ride.
Clio 1.6 16v Dynamique +
!47, yeah go for it! I very nearly got one of those. Sex on wheels they are. (In my opinion anyway).
