Having got fed-up with my RS4, I decided to return to the Leon fold, this time with a mk2 Cupra R. Thinking they were not available in black, I was on the look-out for a kiwi one, when I saw a dealer in Flintshire had a black one advertised. I drove up there in the Audi a couple of days later, and drove home in this:
Before driving up to do the deal, I found out on here that the Leon was a SEAT UK press car, and was the subject of a review by Syphon on here back in 2010 clicky. Knowing that the car would have taken some severe abuse in its early life, I agonised over whether I should buy it, but as black ones are so rare, and because it has low mileage and good service history, I decided to take the plunge.
