SACHS uprated clutch kit and LUK DMF (fitted this saturday just passed)
Clutch is stifer than OEM but not ttoo bad actually. Clutch bite feels a little lower too so I am adjusting to the biting point again but all in all it is much better.
Clutch kit £475.00 incl p&p
Release bearing £45.00 incl
DMF £270.00 incl
TOTAL £790.00
fitting = 1 bottle of whiskey
Took us 6 hours to fo the job ONLY because I had to wait an hour or the DMF to arrive but on the whole this cost me less than it would cost most as I got discount on all the parts. Joys of having accounts at trade prices through work
TOTAL SPEND ON CAR TO DATE EXCLUDING PURCHASE PRICE IS ROUGHLY £8000.00!!!!! I MUST BE INSANE LOL.

What's the 4 wheel geometry for mate? Is it a sub frame off job?

Yes, sub frame off to fit clutch..
No mate.
Subframe doesn't need touched, only left ballpoint requires disconnected and no other suspension parts.
I've done 5 now and never needed to touch the frame or do alignment.

On the mk5 Gti forum CupraKris is selling a brand new complete kit for £475 delivered!
Kris good bloke to deal with.
I've used him several times now.
Well the Leon has now been sold so I am moving onto the next project. Something where I at least no longer have car payments but still within the VAG group at least. So picked up this little girl today:

She needs a little TLC and I will take my time doing what needs doing as finances permit. 2.0L 16v so not fast at all like the cupra but she is going to look amazing when I am done (hopefully lol). I will still be lurking round the forum so will keep in contact with you all.
