Mk2 Leon FR tdi

I've had this for a couple of months now so thought it was about time i put some pictures up.

Since owning it i've made a couple of change. I changed the wheels for a set of 18" Vancouver wheels as found on the Mk6 Golf GT and GTD as an option. I've actually never been too sure about them but they are growning on me. I've also had the car remapped which is great but it is difficult to put the power down at times

I plan to get her lowered in the future but not sure when. I've got a set of wheels for winter which i need to get winter tyres for so that will need to come first. I've also got a set of black mirror caps which i've not fitted yet and i'll more than likely do the grille to match.

The day i got her.





As she is now.

Cheers man!

I was trying to update this earlier today with new pics of the recent changes i've made but photobucket wasn't playing the game unfortunatly.

I totally agree, the standard 17s are rank. If it came with the 18s then i probably wouldn't have changed them or at least not as quickly anyway. I am kinda unsure of the Vancouvers aswell, they seem to suit the mk6 Golf better i think?

Cheers guys. It's been lowered for a couple of months now but i've had my winter wheels on so i've not seen it lowered on the 18s yet.

Some updated pics finally.

It's lowered on Eibach Sportline's which im pretty happy with but i would like the front a tad lower. Black grille and mirror caps, removed some of the badges and also now sat on 16" A3 wheels with Pirelli winter tyres, obviously for the winter months. I had a wee problem with my remap aswell so i took it back and they uploaded a new map and the end results were 218bhp and 312lbft of torque which im really happy with






The mod i'm least happy with.



That happened when i was down in Nottingham for the weekend. It goes half way up the quarter, the full length of the passenger rear door and part of the front door If i ever caught the f***er who did it i would them after cutting all thir fingers off.

Yeah it's all the way through the paint. I'm getting the whole side painted sometime this month along with my mirror caps painted solid black instead of the Blackmagic that they are just now.

I got an Angel map. The dpf light has never come on since i've owned the car but i think it may have went into regen mode quite a few times. Down on power, a strange purring noise from the exhaust and a funny burning smell? I once had a puff of smoke from somewhere aswell?

Yeah thanks the mirrors and grille do look so much better.

I'd like to get mine rr'd again somewhere else to see a comparison and see if it is actually making that sort of power. It made 186bhp as standard but i have heard that alot of them do make around that in standard form.

I'm happy for now but if my dpf does dicide to throw it's toys out the pram then it will more than likely get binned

No problems running the smaller wheels as such just a bit more flex in the side walls with them being that bit larger but that also gives a more comfortable ride aswell.

Just the springs for now, maybe do the shocks at a later date.

Cheers man!

The VW wheels are called Vancouvers and are an option on the Mk6 Golf GT and GTD. They went back on at the end of last week but i'll need to give the car a clean again before i put new pics up, she's just been on a 1000 mile round trip.

The winter wheels are off an A3 but not sure what they're called.

I'm sure you'll enjoy yours as much as me and my wife enjoy ours
