most excellent. very pleased for you, and a little jealous for myself.

how much are they stinging you for the parking sensors if you dont mind me asking?

Yes, well chuffed with the colour mate, it does look good in any pictures that I have seen, but in real life it really does show very nicely, I think it's the Black/White thing, look's well smart. Retro.

Hope Pedro has given me a decent engine.

Yeah First CW Cupra as far as I know, it's a bit of exclusivity. Not for long though eh??? LOL.

 

[Simon_Peters]

Wicked looking car!! Nice one mate!

 

[Emm]

White really emphasises and contrasts well against the black trim.

It'll be a head turner.

 

[Cupra R]

Thanks, all I need now is it on the drive. Then I can make up excuse's for little drives everywhere.

 

[Cupra R]

Also, meant to say. The car did have the Passenger Airbag Disconnection (switch located in glovebox ala LCR) it also had the Upgraded screen for the Bluetooth, I noticed the Auto Dimming Mirror so the Conveinience Pack is on, but I never noticed if the Rear Side Airbags were in, hope so.

 

[ZBOYD]

Rear Airbags, are in the upper part of the rear quarters. Just the little airbag sign like normal.

 

[seadragon]

What a sweet ride Rich, am glad its all working out for you.

I got to see my lovely CW FR and I am in lovely, only about 4/5 more days before I get to drive it home, not too long.

Yeah, this is what I was expecting to see, but I had forgotten about the Rear Airbags and so forgot to look and make sure they were there lol.

We only got the drivers door open too you see as he said the car hadn't been programmed yet, so only the drivers door opened via the key in the lock. Not sure how true this could be, but I didn't want to start messing about.

Was too busy gawping

Glad you liked it mate, worth the agonising wait for you then.

Have you paid for it now then?

I take it your driving it away then have to take it back for the skirts doing?

I'm having the skirts done, but they haven't said anything about them being on back order.

All they have said is that they want it to be registered for this months sales, otherwise they would miss out on a discount. They don't seem to be in a rush to get me into it TBH. Not that I want them to rush anything.

 

[Cupra R]

nice looking motor.

Cheers mate.

 

[seadragon]

Hey Rich,

The skirts were delayed until June but then apparently arrived unexpectedly on friday, so they will be sprayed and fitted sometime next week, then it needs to be cleaned and supagarded, then its all mine, hopefully will get it about thurs at the latest.

I am only paying on collection day, so I didnt give in. Apparently I was given special permission to be able to pay on the day.

I was an agonising wait (I have had a lot of sleepless nights) but I love the car. It was really dirty and the skirts were inside the car, looks like a disaster but I know a bit of a wash and a clean and it will look 100%.

 

[Cupra R]

Yes, with a little TLC. It will be exactly what you were after, and worth the wait.
