Got my TDI FR back today after 3 weeks in Bristol Street Motors body shop Newcastle where they replaced the rear offside quarter. Made a cracking job.

I had a Honda Civic as a hire car which was crap (used to drive the Honda CTR which was awesome), and I forgot how good the Leon actually is.

Took it straight to the Metro Centre to do a bit of Xmas shopping then drove her home to Sunderland. The trip on the A19 put a huge smile on my face. This car is something else - I really missed the acceleration.

Happy motoring from now on. :D

PS - dont buy a Honda unless its a Type R.

I assume you've checked the paint matching in good daylight ?

Just heard so many people check the car over in the dark/rain/streetlights thinking it was good, only to then see it in daylight and be disappointed...
