Cupra 300 General Discussion and Pics

This is quite a good video showing the 300 4x4 being quite a lot slower than the 290 fwd.
It's exactly why I'd never have the 4x4 version (if was available on the 5 door)

Thank you! I have been following your updates with great interest, thanks for them!
Orange looks good, but come on lets have a yellow too. 
Anyone have an idea when the Performance Pack will be available to order (or more specifically the alloys). Really not keen on the standard wheels - may grow on me I guess, but a lot of pennies so want to get my ideal spec of course

The front bumper on the new shape is awful in my opinion it's a let down would on just been better putting a splitter and the side skirts as standard. And that camera square in the front grill ugghhh.
Don't get an RS the new one is nothing compared to the old one, such a lack of power and excitement my test drive 2 weeks ago was majorly underwhelming, I took the salesman out in my 290(382) and he could see where I was coming from. Might be because my mk2 was stage 4.5 430bhp but still not worth the 37k for top spec.
I'd consider the cupra 280/290 second hand and stage 2 it, why would any one want an electronic handbrake or keyless entry
Other than that unless seat introduce a complete AWD my next car will be a Mercedes AMG A200Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
According to a poster on the Spanish forum. His response to the delay in getting a build week for his LC300 with performance pack was:
"We have been informed that, for technical reasons, there is a delay in the start of production of the Lions that pass through SEAT Sport, depending on the color of the car:
Colour Week scheduled start production
0E0E S.14
0C0C S.14
P5P5 S.14
7Y7Y S.16
B4B4 S.16
2Y2Y S.17
E1E1 S.17"
As we didn't get the option in the UK yet and assuming above is accurate expect the PP to open to orders soon.

Because the engines aren't ran in at manufacturing you don't believe this old myth on modern cars. Mk2 RS stage 4.5 in 3 months of factory order covered 85k miles in 5 years never had a issue. My cupra 290 stage 1 a month of owning no problems covered 10k in 10 months. My Revo dealer mk3 RS 50 miles on clock stage 3 he drove it straight to his garage. Don't be so naive on German built modern engines. If you've slowly baked the turbo up and warmed the engine, the things ready for a whopping.
Use an abuse a cup racing hatchback, it's not a rover

Any idea which dealer that's heading for?This just flashed up on Facebook.. Fresh lot taken this morning.
Note the Mystery Blue 300's, the rear window fins are visible...
Wonder if they're something earlier builds have just missed out on?

The tag was Southampton, whether or not it's just been taken at random of the wagon parked up or actually at the dealer, I don't know.
I think they come into the country in Newcastle so I'd guess they're heading somewhere close.
Ok ta. The ship I'm interested in docked in Newcastle on Monday.
