Cupra 300 information

[mdking]

Evening everyone,

I have viewed a Cupra 300 (Nov 17 Plate) this weekend, 5 Door hatch in Blue.

Just browsing the forum to see if there is anything that I should check for on the 300’s before a potential purchase?

Is there any major problems with the engine or DSG? (I know the DSG is the 6 speed wet, I’m coming from the 7 speed dry box)

Apologies if there is a sticky with all this information already.

Thanks
Matt

Nope, all good, you'll be one of the last 300bhps, as the run out models (bar ST 4WD) will be 290s!

Thanks for the quick reply.

Describing a November 2017 car as 'one of the last' is a bit of a stretch. Do you even have the first clue how many have been registered in the 9 months since then?

is it a PX67 plate one? The reason I ask is there's a Mystery Blue one at my local garage too.

Mines a 67 plate DSG Cupra 300 and I love it. All I can say is go for it if the deal suits you. the DSG box takes a bit of getting used to if coming from a Manual but i'm happy with mine and as you are already coming from a DSG there shouldn't be any issues for you.

Not the PX67, just got to get used to the electronic handbrake

I usually have it off and apply it when I want to. Keeps me active and gives you a little control back too.

Quite alot, judging by your response

It'll have the analogue dash board, if you want the digital dash then you have to find one built in 2018. Otherwise it's so new unlikely to have a major fault and covered on warranty anyway. I'm sure you'll enjoy it.

Digital dash looked nice, but I’m happy with the current dash.

Got a few options on the car so, all happy
