The ride is soooooooo much better than the Ibiza FR, even with the 18's. It's the rear suspension I think that does it. The Ibiza seems to not have rear suspension like a hard tail Harley Davidson 
Also the brakes are soooooo much better too, those Ibiza FR brakes are poop.
Had a fiddle with the bluetooth on the way home but I forgot my Ipod so Johnathan Ross it was all the way home (95miles)
Used 1/4 of a tank 36mpg on the way there in the Ibiza and 1/8 of a tank 46mpg on the way home
It reals in the horizon with no fuss at all.
Can you spot my first mod, well I didn't do it, the dealer did it for me...............

Tell me more, How much and part numbers. Is there a thread on this? I have searched but maybe I'm not typing in the right words
Is it painted black or is it actually black plastic?
Theres a pic in this thread http://www.seatcupra.net/forums/showthread.php?t=181547&highlight=black+grille
OK so it's actually a Cupra grill then. and it's 35 quid
The mirror covers are a cupra part, so you may as well complete the set. I just have the grille, as I like the silver mirrors and don't want to associate it with the cupra, as it's not a cupra.
Yeah, I'm not doing the cupra wish it was thing. I could have bought a 30k mile cupra with BTTC kit for the same money but they like the fuel too much and the road tax is silly these days.
I think the cupra gril looks cool so I will look into this.
I need to paint the hubs as they are already rusty (common problem eh?) and I'm going to paint the calipers too. Black methinks.
I see that and think "Let the Modding Begin" lol
nice choice of colour. economy wise it'll be about 35-45mpg.
was doing 35-37 @ 90-95mph yesterday which chrisboyle999 up my chuff lol
Chris's cupra is an epic car. stupidly quick, would have eaten my car alive if he wasn't following me for directions

tidy mate, and a black grille will sharpen it up.
Respect for keeping it as an FR rather than trying to fake it up as a Cupra!

Very nice indeed Nath
Had a similar drive yesterday back home from Duxford (70ish miles) siting at 90 ish with some blats in between and achieved 32mpg in a 2.0TSI petrol
