Hey Guest👍👎 We're looking for reviews of your local CUPRA or SEAT Dealership - it's quick and easy to do: Leave a review now
Pretty much what I expected, having had a few hints over the last 12 months I didn't expect it to be a radical departure. Slight revision to the front end, bumper bonnet and grille. Hatch has been remodelled with the glass sitting flush. New interior is ok with subtle changes to bring it into line with the new Ibiza.
I think they will reserve major changes until the Mk3 debuts.
i quite like the look of the steering wheel, but i'm not so sure of the centre console. is the console fascia quite a bit lighter in colour? or perhaps its the stereo/climate control thats gone that much darker?
i guess theyll start appearing around june time then (my10?)

It does appear to be a bit lighter, but that could be due to the photography.
I would expect late summer, maybe in time for September.

No info on the Cupra, this relates to the FR there maybe more info released at the show early next Month. I suspect it won't be any less powerful than it is now though.
This is a Spanish press release, and the market differs in Europe to the UK. They had Sport variants rather than FR's, but it would appear they are bringing the models into line. Don't read too much into the press release as it could well differ in various areas in regards to the UK.
I agree, I expect they will bring it into line with it's stable mates.
they have the FR in spain and 3 variants, the fr 2.0tfsi the fr 2.0tdi and the fr1 with the bucket seats
Hmmmm I like some parts of it, the steering wheel and the new radio. but over all i think the old FR looks better. It will be interesting to see what the basic models will look like.
Inside is a bit of an imporvement with the radio, but they've clearly cut costs with the climate control. Having said that it's probably fine for most people, but I'm a gadget freak, and liked the digital readout. The climate control in my mk3 Ibiza is more advanced!

definetly not 4wd, just thinking more looks wise. Doubt the facelift cupra will be advertised as 265hp though.

doubt the mk6 golf will ever see a 4wd variation in hothatch form, unless they make a golf version of a possible rs3.
It will be called the gti-r or R20T in some markets and will just be an S3. There's going to be a sirocco version the same aswell.
SEAT already have a similar 4WD system to that used by VW and Audi (A3/TT)
