Matt, interesting to see how you rate the Cupra having had an Impreza before.
Its never going to corner or launch like a Scooby BUT if you get the 210 conversion the power to weight ratio is higher than the following cars:
Audi S3
Honda Civic Type R (and pisses all over it on torque)
Lancia Delta Integrale
And all UK Imprezas (UK300 included) bar the P1 and RB5

So in gear acceleration should at least be respectable http://www.seatcupra.net/forums/smile.gif

Love the wheel chooser pics, most of the Speedline range look good, I personally hate the Miglias and don't think they suit Cupras at all.
P.S. Can you also please add a picture of what Speedline Challenges (5 spoke rally replica) would look like as I'm considering these for my Cupra. Still running it in but with a 210 conversion its gonna need all the grip it can get http://www.seatcupra.net/forums/wink.gif

Well, it isn't *quite* the same, the thing I really miss from the impreza is the noise. The Cupra does, however, give me a similar buzz... can't wait for the 210 conversion.

Indeed... I worked it out and it should be up there with ~270bhp Impreza's, certainly on in-gear acceleration. STi's and P1s may be a different story but there won't be much in it.

Agree on the sound - the thing I really miss about my 16v is the noise it made from the induction kit and exhaust (in the 210 you are going twice as fast as you think compared to the 16V)
The 210 package has a Milltek stainless exhaust but being turbocharged the 20VT is so much quieter. This exhaust is only slightly meatier sounding than standard, but at least it doesn't annoy you on the motorway like my 16V did.

Select road wheels, one piece, and click on the white 5 spoker (code 2110 when you hover over it, the name is Challenge). Then hit the zoom link. Trouble is its not a "flat" square on view of the wheel so might be impossible to superimpose on your Ibiza. If anyone has a link to a flat view of this wheel then please post here (where did you get all the other wheel pics from, surely the 2110 Challenge would be there as well?)
