didn't see prices like that coming so soon! Sport owners must be a bit p!ssed about that.

tbh i was expecting discounts like this to appear , as there has been a big jump in prices from the old models.

tfsi fr seems a bargain when the equivalent golf is 20k after discount

5k difference is just plain mad why would anyone buy the gti ? vw are really taking the wee wee.

it`s gonna be hard waiting for the dsg version

Tbh, as a Sport owner I'm not that bothered the FR looks by all accounts like a sport in different clothes anyway. The only thing I think is nicer on the FR is the front bumper, and that's hardly the end of the world is it...

Now the Cupra, when that arrives may be something to lust after, but a new spoiler, different cloth, and a few FR badges are hardly worth losing sleep over...

I totally agree on all counts. I'm very happy with my "exclusive"

sport model.

uve forgotton about an extra 30bhp as well on the TDI

carl4x4 · Jun 7, 2006

Maybe 30 extra bhp on the TDI, but on the TFSI the dubious 185bhp figure of the Sport was proved to be a the same as the Golf GTI's 197 anyway...

Proved ?? I must have missed that. Someone was going to do a rolling road test round about now AISTR

Re. Pricing. I paid £14,196 + metallic paint and spare for my sport. This compared to £15,044 for a non-metallic FR.

£850 is a lot of money for, what appears to be, little gain.

I was looking at Drive The Deal and Broadspeed yesterday but neither of have the options list up yet.

Broadspeed list all the Leon's as a factory order - what's the lead time on that? Weeks or months?

On Saturday

carl4x4 · Jun 8, 2006

So you're going to the rolling road then Dan? be interesting to see if the UK cars are the same as the mainland European ones

DanGB · Jun 8, 2006

Yes, if it is around 200bhp i expect it to be a little higher due to the less restricting exhaust I have fitted and the new air filter.

Snoopy · Jun 8, 2006

I remember just before the mk5 golf GTI came out it had similar discounts 2.2K from these guys until there was a huge demand for them. Then most discounts vanished. If the Leon becomes very popular and gets good reviews i can see it happening to the FR too.

carl4x4 · Jun 8, 2006

It'll be interesting to see if the car reviewers think the FR is much different than the Sport, or whether they even bother to make the comparison.

DanGB · Jun 10, 2006

209.7BHP

well there you go. All I have is a less restricting Milltek cat-back and better panel filter.

carl4x4 · Jun 10, 2006

209.7 ?

Most acceptable !!!! Thanks Dan for putting the record straight, what are the colouring-in department on about at Seat when they published 185 !!

Just to be careful. We're any MKV GTI's (or any other 2 Litre FSI Turbo) done whilst you were there?
