i was seeing 5-9MPG on track! which is more or less the same as you would get pushing on!

 

[Ad Lav]

Ha ha, that's brilliant!

Mind you, who gives a monkeys about mpg if you can spend £15k on mods to get it that fast...

 

[CupraStoo]

thats exactly my point ad, i think he wants 5000bhp and 50MPG!

l.o.l verry funny.

I'm sure I read in some press material that the Cupra has an "electronic" limited slip differential. Now to me that just means it has traction control, but marketing guff is designed to sell things...

There is a system known as Electronic Differential Lock. It's used on VWs and the newer Leons but it is basically a type of traction control, possibly the same system as the Ibiza uses but it is not known as that on the Ibiza.

lol Makes the 25ish MPG i get when blasting through the twistys seem great in comparison. If only i could get it to sound more like a petrol and rev out further...

Nope, I was right. In a dull moment sat in the car waiting for someone I read the handbook. SEAT Ibizas equipped with TCS have an electronic LSD, which works by using the ABS to stop a single wheel from spinning when cornering. So there

a limited slip differential is a mechanical device fitted inside the gearbox
