I think you need to test drive the 1.8 and see if you're happy with it. Cupras are epic, but I've said before that the 1.8 would probably be perfectly quick enough for the everyday slog. A 3-year old Cupra will probably have had a hard life, too, as well as being out of manufacturer's warranty. It's hard to use 300bhp during the week as almost everything else will hold you up......Nothing like a Cupra on full chat, though

Go drive both then make your decision. 10 years is a long time to keep a car, jeez I've had like 12 cars in 6 years of driving and the longest I've kept one is 18 months! So you definitely want to make sure you have the right one.
