Hi all
Just got myself an 08 plate Candy White Cupra, which has the K1 kit etc...
I am honestly not sure if a genuine K1 or not. I've read the threads and all seems quite ambiguous but I really like the car so aren't actually that bothered.
It doesn't have the Cupra word/badge, just K1 on the boot, it also has dual exhausts rather than centre and the rear plastic bit above the exhausts is black as are the wheels, mirrors, front grille and door pillars. Doesn't say K1 on log book but understand none of them do? It was a demo with Seat for about a year from new.
Nice car anyway!
I've gone from two MK1 FR PD150's, a MK2 Facelift FR TDi 170 and now this Cupra, deffo a much different power delivery which I am getting used to.
I've had various quick cars before including a Sierra Cosworth hence the name!
Do people think the Cupra's are laggy at all? I cant tell if its just that, or if there may have been a slight hesitation more in 2nd gear, anything known on these?
The car hasn't been used much between MOT's, like a few thousand miles and only 300 miles last year! but has always been serviced regardless, so thought maybe just lack of use. I do have VAG COM/VCDS if there is a way to check boosting properly or anything else?
Cheers
