If its Ireland ur talkin about, then VW Ireland are taking over importation of SEAT's in November. Until then we'll see nothin like whats in Britain
an insult to mk1 LCR owners
we should sign a petition to keep it out of the uk unless it has 4wd/proper LSD and a bigger turbo...

As you can tell they are really proud of it, when the Mk1 LCR was launched it had cupra r plates on the works this just has leon, is it me or have seat lost thier way when it comes to range toppers now?

To boring for me, had the chance to make a real statement with wider arches, side skirts and front and rear diffuser's and larger spoiler but no its just a plain old looking Leon to me.
yawn, but this is the VAG group all over, really VW have made some headway with the sirocco but basically even that is just a golf thats been squashed, the r32 is yawn worthy, audi well they have the r8 but even that is bit lazy, they have seemed to still let lambo have a bit of flair at lambo.....but isnt seat meant to be the sporty brand, i'd rather just get a k1 kitted cupra or tdi fr think that looks much meaner on the road and makes it stand out, why do they always try to hide the fact it is the r version and then realise at the last second and stick a crappy badge on it and add a bit of black, basically doesnt that mean that they save a bit of money on the paint as black is a bit cheaper and can be massed produced lol poor form......
not sure what you're on about with the black bits (is it the mirrors?), but I'm pretty sure I'd still have the new R over a TDi FR or a K1 kitted cupra!
I'm just REALLY disappointed it isn't more aggressive (looks and performance wise).
We should send a printout of every thread about it off to SEAT head office, they need to see what they are doing to themselves. I'd rather have a Meganne ffs!
dude, I think it's all of us?

No its not, i am sure everyone looked and was hoping for a mean stance looking fat boy racer looking car, yes i know more and more manufactures are trying to make there hot hatches look like standard cars to stop them being nicked ect but lets stand up out of the crowd and say hay look here i am, instead it hides behind lower spec versions and just tries to look round the corner.
COME ON SEAT BRING OUT A CAR WORTHY OR THE R BADGE.

Or hope one of the tuners gets there act together fast and brings out a bad arse kit for it that we can bolt on.

and some haldex/lsd with a GBFO garrett...
thing is, no matter how we tune it, SEAT will be selling it as above.
