4wd???

[caveo]

I know this is a little in depth but here goes, would it be possable to convert a fwd leon to 4wd?
I'v seen it done on other cars ( a new shape celica springs to mind last year in max power ) and seening how we have numerous cars in the vag range that have it i cant see a problem with parts ( TT , golf 4motion and i think there is even a leon (?)) .
I know lots of folk would be dying for this at this time of year so im just throwing this out there and i know lots of folk will tell me how it cant be done but with the demand of a 4wd convertion if i were a performance garage i would definatly look into it cos at the right price there would be plenty of intrest

Do they not make a 2.8 V6 4motion Leon for Europe?

Probably work out cheaper to sell your car, buy an S3 and go big turbo on that!

Edit: Without massive alterations

Well the way I see it is if Bill (badger 5) can run over 500bhp through the front wheels you will be fine with just over 300! I’ve seen a lot of your posts recently, you really do worry a lot! I’m sure jbs will look after you!

Oh right! Well I’ve not seen him in real life, seen a couple of vids of when he was running around 370bhp, looked pretty impressive to me! Nice car by the way, I didn’t know they made the lcr in pink!

Buy a LHD 4wd Leon & change the dash/rack/column/peddle box/scuttle/wipers, etc to RHD. Surely easier than cutting the floor, etc????
