Cupra gone......Now Mk5 Golf R32

[banksy21]

Hi guys,
After My mk4 Golf 1.8T dropped a valve i decided to break her and tbh i didnt think id make much back but i made over £7k back in the space of 3 weeks.

I wanted to stay VAG but didnt want a Golf or Audi. so after carfull consideration i thought F**k it and try find a nice mk2 seat leon cupra in which i stumbled accross this little beut.

2007 leon cupra 2.0tfsi
62k
F/S/H
women owner
folder full of receipts
few mods already: drilled and groved discs all round, eibach sportlines -40mm springs, carbon black roof (not to my taste but dare not take it off)
after the test drive i thought YES this is the car for me, it was originally up for £6800 i managed to knock her down to £6400 which i thought was a bargain.

Right....after a few days, i was getting a bit board so decided to get a remap from a company in liverpool redline performance and while i was there i treaded myself to a pipercross panel filter. after a full health check the car sprinkled with a bit of fairy dust and made 308bhp 312lbft on the rollers, and i was over the moon, the ride home was epic.

on the way back i popped into awesome gti and brought seat numberplate surrounds and there was a guy there selling his wind deflectors so had them as well.
i also sprayed the front grill badge and rear boot handle.

i have also just brought the Triple R front splitter, Pipercross cupra r cat-back twin exhaust and diffuser. so looking to fit them this weekend.

Wow your not hanging about then.



Car looks nice mate and sounds like its going to get better, that remap company. Do they do stage maps or just the one off the shelve? How much too

 

[big eck]

Looks good bud. Buy an intake for it tho, that's an absolute must.

 

[banksy21]

was just a generic map andy i got the offer from http://www.groupon.co.uk/ i paid £180 with the pipercross panel filter.

been looking at the revo or evom intake.

but 4 tires are needed first as my first MOT next week. its got 4 differenty brands on haha (s**t brands as well) just over the legal limit. so gonna order x4 uniroyal rainsport 3's.

 

[big eck]

Have a look at the goodyear F1 assy2's as well bud. Superb tyres and very well priced as well.

just waiting on the triple R splitter.

That map was a right bargain then. Nice amount of power for the money.


What your doing to the rear end is what i plan to do too but plenty of things need doing first.

Golf looked awesome, must of been (and looked it from the pic) well spec'd to break for the money, surprising how quick it adds up. I had paypal freeze my account when I broke my Ibiza for making 4k in 5 days lol.

Leon looks tops as well, best colour

I had paypal freeze my account when I broke my Ibiza for making 4k in 5 days lol.

Lol class!

 

[Chambers_CUPRA]

Lol class!

Was a pain in the ass. Had to email passport driving licence to paypal and ring them several times to prove it wasn't a new business lol. Took a week to sort lol.

 

[banksy21]

hers a few more pictures of the golf

 

[Chambers_CUPRA]

Looks awesome. Reminds me of my Ibiza

Leon should turn out well based on the golf

 

[banksy21]

right...... new tyres ordered x4 uniroyal rainsport 3's which have some amazing reviews and for £325 delivered i couldnt moan.

fitted and sprayed my cupra r diffuser but waiting after my MOT before fitting it to the motor.

and thought the engine bay needed a bit of colour so sprayed the engine cover insert red then added a porsche oil filler cap.

First of all your mk4 golf looks really nice mate, live the way you modded it.... Looked nice and stealthy and subtle at the same time.

I'm on the look out for a mk2 cupra at the minute..... I seen this on eBay and text/rang about it but never heard anything back.....

I'd have snatched there hand of at 6,400 as well lol.

I sold my mk2 fr tdi a couple of weeks back so I've got money burning a hole in my pocket waiting on a nicely spec'd cupra at a good price.

Look after it anyways fella.

 

[Trekkie]

Cracking car, coming along nicely!

 

[STU3Y]

Looking good. Just needs a spoiler.

 

[banksy21]

definitely NO spoilers.
I hate them, if they serve a purpose thats fine but just for looks no way.

anyway x4 new tyres from camskill ordered yesterday @ 2pm arrived today @ 9am amazing service yet again.

 

[banksy21]

Still deciding what intake, the volkswagon racing, evoms or revo intake.
