Thought I'd better introduce myself...

I joined the forum just over five years ago when I bought my Red Leon Cupra (1.8 20vt 180) and since then I've had fantastic fun with it, kept it standard and looked after it well. I have'nt posted at all really, I suppose too busy with other things and only being able to type with one finger doesn't help!!

Just under a month ago I traded it in for for an eight month old cupra K1, didn't want to have too much change, so kept it red, with the black alloys. Got £4150 for the 1.8, then found it a few days later on Seatuk approved site for £6490! And the gits got the asking price for it!! Gutted? No, not in the least, I'm still enjoying driving along the fantastic roads that we have here in NW Wales, emptying a tank every few days......

The only major gripe is, no CD multichanger, only a single CD and aux point... Now this is where you educated lot come in, what are my options, Ideally USB connector as I have plenty of mem stix going spare, I've seen kits on flea-bay for conversions of pre 05 leons but nothing for mine. All (sensible, and not too expensive) suggestions greatfully accepted.

cheers

Will do, a favourite of mine is from Porthmadog to Beddgelert (not brilliant, but if the road is empty it's quit good..... Up towards Nant Gwynant, twisties and short straits, ideal for passing the caravans and w/end tourists. Then the best part of all is up towards Pen-Y-Pass and down into Llanberis, blip the throttle, yo're past, heavy on the brakes, couple of tight turns, next car, quick blip, third, fourth, gone, heavy on the brakes. And repeat..... etc etc etc..... I'm heavy on the smiles..... At Llanberis, U turn and head back home, much better than the A458 (which is currently 30mph for 5 miles because of roadworks )

No I don't, but I wouldn't mind being introduced to it, what route does it take?

Both if you like, I reckon you need both to enjoy the cupra!

You can only have 1 extra device fitted, a there is only 1 ext input on the headunit, so thats means either CD changer, OR Aux, OR USB in.

Thanks, I really like the idea of the USB, as it doesn't need power (batteries or charger) unlike an mp3 player or i-pod. What do I need? Is it just a simple lead or do I need more than this. And lastly, where can I get whatever I want?!
