Ceejay's new toy. Speed Blue Cupra.

[CJcupra]

I do a lot of motorway miles so I find they are very dirty after a few days but wipes off rather easily. Just the inside of the wheel that needs a good acid once in a while

A little update....

So i've ordered a cupra R spoiler from the dealers.. should have this fitted towards the end of the month. Im going down the Gloss black route as it stands..

Also ordered a set of H&R lowering springs, was slightly put off by the rear end lower than the front on the Eibach sportlines hence the decision to by H&R. Will post pics once all is fitted

 

[CJcupra]

Now that's quick service. Took less than 24hours for delivery! Thanks Damian at DPM.

Pics to follow once they're fitted

 

[CJcupra]

Here are some pics of it lowered on H&R springs. Looks the part if I'm honest.

Looks good dropped

 

[seatleon2012]

very nice drop.

 

[DMcG]

What's the drop on these? Is the ride much harsher?

Think the leon definitely needs a drop but can't afford to make it any more uncomfortable especially with 19's.

Looks great by the way.

I need some speed blue in my life.

It certainly does! still needs to settle so may see a further drop.

It's about 30mm for the cupra but the kit states 40mm. This depends on your engine / car weight etc.

It's not harsh at all! I was worried about killing the ride on a newish car, but it didn't. I didn't think the H&R kit would drop it enough but I was wrong, would recommend these! Gives it a mean look without comprising practicality. My mk4 golf was slammed to the ground so it's a nice change for me lol.

Well I'm guessing you've got a speed blue FR, better MPG than mine

This is correct, dont really care about mpg though lol

 

[CJcupra]

Lol time for a trade up then

Realistically I should of got an FR with the amount of motorway miles I do every week although the power and interior did it for me lol easily persuaded ha

Out of my budget at the moment mate, I'd like a supercoper but for the money there are a few audi's I'd prefer.

 

[CJcupra]

To be honest you can't go wrong with an Audi all though I wanted to stay away from that route.

Just filled it up with V-power and for a full tank it's saying 320 miles to empty Lol

Keep the wheels white. Do they come from the factory like that?

The 'lady owner' before me had them sprayed white. Guessing they're normally some silver colour.. Love them white but I find myself giving them a good wash every weekend ! If I get some other wheels then they will also be white.
