Mk2 Leon Cupra Rs in Black?

[mike0105]

This was the one I was referring to earlier. Given that he is a used car salesman (I mean ELCC, not mike0105!), are we happy to take his word for it that there were five kiwi Cupra Rs?

Haha I'm worse than a car salesman mate! Yeah course pinch of salt and all that, but if it is a 10 plate as he says then it would suggest there are at least 2 in the UK. It could be a 2010 '59 plate of course in which case it could be the same ca. maybe there is one, maybe more. Who knows other than SEAT?

Hahah just googled Kiwi Cupra R and ...

Colto owns it now and Cupra_Rida was the old owner.

Yep, i own the 59 plate one. The 10 plate owner is also on here, his being identical to mine, apart from him having headlight washers in his bumpers, yet no xenons.
Thanks for posting regarding the VWracing stuff, pretty interesting! That me now aware who all the previous owners were, as i happened to find the last on instagram

How many owners has it had?

[AndrewJB]

It's always interesting to learn about your car.
I'll get a build thread up whenever i have enough posts to post photos and also have done something worth while on it ha

Took me a while, but here's my black on black on black LCR. When it's dirty its even worse as you can't see the exhausts!

When we were looking for an R back in 2012 there was a Kiwi Green one at the Seat dealers in Binley Woods Coventry , we went to have a look as our local dealer didn't have one we could look at. Can't remember the reg though.

that the one my other half bought will be up for sale soon

Mmmmm two different gearknobs. Couldn't see the other pics before. I have the one with the numbers and stuff on the shaft not the top of the knob.

 

[AndrewJB]

That's not a Cupra gearknob thats why

That one with the numbers on the top is identical to the one I'm sat looking at now, in my Passat. The one in our R was the same as JC Boc's iirc.

Mines black! I like the subtleness of it all

It's got a nice flake pop to it when it's clean
