Hi Jib don't feel really any difference putting it in cupra mode from sport mode as when its in sport mode from comfort mode that is when it turns from plain Jane to a demented Margaret you may get a little bit more holds on longer in cupra mode on the gear change but no extra drama that's just my opinion
but boy me you are travelling at serious pace in fact licence goodbye pace

cheers GHB

I tend to use individual mode 99% of the time.

Have everything set to cupra except suspension that stays in comfort. Cupra mode will be track only unfortunately due to the state of the roads about my way

Do you have to switch to another mode and back to individual for the engine to be in cupra? That's the annoyance I have with it being in sport mode as the engine defaults to eco on startup to save fuel.

Honestly couldn't say . I drive with dsg in manual unless on a long haul so only difference I notice on start-up is gearbox reverts to drive instead of sport

I'm planning to upgrade to Cupra in the foreseeable future.

How is the exhaust drone when cruising at 70Mph ?
I'd like some exhaust note when acceleration but no drone when cruising
