How reliable are cupra's? Mileage etc?

Been looking at straight px for a cupra but with a bit more miles on the clock on the cupra.. Seen a few with around 50k on?

Had one for around 17 months now, only thing i've had go was a coil pack and that was a result of having the engine cover off and water getting in. Most reliable car I've owned as well as the most powerful.

Crap on fuel though!!! But that's to be expected.

We'll the thing with fuel is obviously I'm paying a lot more for diesel but I'm not doing as many miles as thort because of a new job.. So would I benefit in the long term with a cupra? And obviously more fun haha!

My last one had 40k on it when I sold it, didn't feel much different to my current one with nearly half the miles.

 

[benrace91]

Do you think a garage would do a straight PX for a cupra?

I guess they'd under value my car so they could get some money out of it??

 

[betty_swollox]

Tfsi mike has a heavily modded 57 plate (iirc) cupra and that's done over 50k and is still going strong. Same with bignod too, think he's done around 50k too

Theyre well looked after so that does help tbf.

Yeah well looked after cars will last longer.. Just don't last as long as our dirty diesels haha!

09 plate, 36k and no hpi on the car..

A garage would rather have an FR TDI to sell than a cupra due to it being diesel and that's what a lot of people are going for these days

This is why I'm thinking that they'd rather have a diesel with a lot of life left in it!

Evans halshaw used to have a car valuation thing on their site


I traded in a 59 plate with 32k on it and got around 8500 for it.

[betty_swollox]
