Picked up my brand new Supercopa today

[Nath.]

It looks the muts nuts in candy white with the black 18;s

I've done some mods today too

Fitted the Linear grille

Fitted SMD DRL bulbs

Fitted SMD sidelight bulbs

Fitted SMD reg plate bulbs

Then I got the VCDS out and

Turned off the gay foglight cornering lights

Turned on coming home

Turned on the hazard flash with emergency braking

Turned on leaving home

Turned on needle staging

Made the LED tail lights full brightness

Made DRL's full brightness


Not bad for day one, it's too dark now for pics so I will do them tomorrow Then once there's some miles on it I think the DTUK box will go on.

We went to Swanage for fish 'n' chips by the seaside (110 miles) to get her all warmed up and she clocked 58MPG average at 70 on the cruise on the M27 over a 15 mile stretch (cos it's a CR170)

 

[Redemption]

Pleased with it then?

 

[Nath.]

Yep, it's put a big silly smile on my face.

The ride is very good too, way better than my old prefacelift one that I had and the Xenons are better than the ones on my Exeo even though I thought they were exactly the same

Yep, I love it. Except the squeaky clutch pedal (WD40 in the morning Methinks)

Any error messages from the bulbs, and where are the pictures

 

[LukeFR]

Can't wait to see the pictures Nath.

I need VCDs in my life!

Nope, You just need to buy the correct bulbs or fit resistors.

Pics will be done tomorrow, I may have to give the front a little wash first (dead flys)

 

[LukeFR]

How long had you been driving the Exeo for? What was your overall verdict of it?

I had the Exeo Cr170 SE Lux for 1 year. It was a very good car indeed with a good spec. The ride was a bit wooly but that's due to the (comfort) read (On stilts) suspension. The sport tech is probably the one to go for really.


I would of had another CR170 one in candy white with all the toys but the Leon Supercopa comes in cheaper and has the nice bodykit as well as all the toys. The Leon is plenty big enough for 2.

Nice one Nath. Look forward to seeing what it looks like. Such a difference in ride isn't there? I've noticed that when I've been in a facelift Leon compared to mine.

 

[jc_boc]

Congrats Nath. Looking forward to the pictures.

Sounds good mate, hope you enjoy the new ride. Oh, looking forward to the pics too now!

Keen to see what the drl's look like. I switched mine off the day I got the car.

Interesting you switched on the hazards with emergency braking - I switched mine off

 

[Rob66]

Looking fwd to seeing the pics Nath.

Didn't know you could increase the brightness of the LEDs, does it make a big difference?

+1 how do you do this with vcds?

 

[ATGNI]

Also interested in the lighting mods.

 

[Jarre]

would you mind linking the sidelight bulbs and the number plate bulbs please? Having a nightmare finding the right ones, cheers!

I was watching South African production car racing yesterday (I'm unemployed, that's my excuse) and all the Golf 6 GTis were doing that. The commentators said it couldn't be switched off! They've obviously never heard of Vag Com and the other programs.
