Well i gone and done it ! Even after reading the horror storys on here. Just got home from picking up my Bocanegra !
2010, only 2K miles on the clock. even made sure its had the 24T8 update :clap:
No pictures because its dark and the car is dirty inside and out as i wouldnt let them wash it. :happy:
 
Loadss of questions!

How did you do the comment under the Bocanegra text - made me laugh

What is the 24T8 update - im getting one soon and i want what ever this is ha!

Why wouldnt you let them wash it and valet?! free isnt it?
 
Alex: I assume the writing under the boc has been set up by the forum admin as it also happens with stealers lol

OP congrats on the new car btw!
 
Congrats on the car cant wait for pics! Got about 8 weeks till I pick up my Cupra :cry: haha

And Alex Ive specifically asked for the car to not be touched either as the in house valeters usually cause swirl marks and don't do a great job tbh. Obviously this isnt the case for all but I want my paintwork flawless as Im a fussy git :p

Ha brilliant! Love it, So true for both of them.

The dealer is going to get a beat down from me this weekend when i go for a test drive in an ex-demo. They may as well not cause a fuss and just give it to me for free mwahaha! :funk:

Oh right, swirl marks? Do you mean polish swirls or actuall fine scratches like you get when you have grit in a cloth? (eghhh makes me cringe!!)

Yeah you know in the sun when the see the fine scratches sort of like cob webs in round circles [:@]. Caused from poor wash methods... quality of mf clothes etc etc. If I have any I will crack out the rotary on them :p

You want to have a look on detailing world mate, very good forum
detailingworld.co.uk/forum/showthread.php?t=186154

That Porsche shows plenty of swirl marks! I will give the Cupra when it arrives the full treatment and stick a write up on here hopefully :D

Remember i am on detailing world.. so no chance any one would ever be able to touch my car ! My Leon i traded in tonight was unmarked and in as new condition even though it was 5 years old. it was cleaner and better looking than the new stock they had. I would rather live with a dirty car untill the weekend and do it correctly, Although i have been out with the 303 Aerospace and done some of the inside :lol:

Thought I recognised the name off DW lol, yeah on my order form it states in big letters.. DO NOT TOUCH AT ALL :p

Will be using my pot of Glasur on it when it arrives, already worried about parking it when I have to go shopping etc though! :p

Same thing mine said :clap:
wish i could have gone for new but my money is needed else where, will probably be all about the Dodo Juice this weekend
Oh and the Boc is Red.. there is a picture on DW somewhere of it

If your buying new i would guess you wouldnt need it. The update is to help with starting when the car has been standing and is cold (along with other fixes too) Was important to me as while the car will be my daily driver it will be in storage for around 6 months each year.

is this a physical part or just an update to the ecu? im looking at second hand / ex demo but will be using it everyday so wouldnt this would be important for me

this is just an software update for the ecu, if its a 10 plate car like mine then i would hope that who ever you buy it from would have already done it. If its a 60 plate or newer i think they dont need it but i would like some one to confirm that ! I went out of my way to make sure that any updates the car would need have already been done. I've been looking at getting one for a long time

on a side note.. just done its first fill up. £52 for a full tank of supper unleaded compared to £95 for the leon. Computer showing 38.9mpg but will monitor that. Will also be looking at the air filter on the weekend to see if it has the protective cover over it i can remove.
 
Ol buddy 'ol pal!!!! Welcome to the boc clan hahahahahahahahahhaa. Just kidding mate, congrats on the purchase and yes the filter does have that funny little soc on it. Can't wait to see pics by the way, what are the plans? REVO I hope and milltek finally have their system out and pretty soon we will have the upgraded clutch pack................... ;)

Thanks !!!

keeping the car OEM looking, low key and ultra clean :funk:
In no perticular order it will be milltek as i had one on my Mk3 Cupra, breaks, filter, Audio ( just called into B&Q on the way home to get some Torx bits to remove the headunit) Auto lights, armrest, led bulb upgrades, wind deflectors, LCR splitter and possibly a few other things.
I have a full list of parts, part numbers and prices to go at, i am well prepared
