first impressions looking at the cupra

[Biggeege]

This is a Seat web site do you think owners of a Cupra will say a ST is better.
I had a weekend test drive in a ST and a pug 208 GTI went for the GTI in the end as the quality of the Fiesta was shocking.
Had the GTI for about a year and upgraded to to a Cupra 280, miles ahead of the fiesta even at 10k more. (sorry)
Now if you got the money for a new cupra hold on and get a focus RS.

Yeah the FRS doesn't fit my work car allowance co2 emission limits, , the cupra does

I'm not asking for people to say a fiesta is better, just wanted some feedback on my intial impressions to see if other people/owners notice the same things. my ST is the first car I have owned as I had company vans and cars for 7 years, so its all I can compare it too. I don't see why people are getting all touchy and flaming the fiesta , as afterall, it's just a fiesta, and isn't the same class of car.

you can have all the power in the world but I will still be cruising to work at 70mph on the motorway. so with the increase in running costs etc, I want to feel im getting value for money, which I do think the cupra is, in the same way the fiesta ST is, but at the next level.

looked at a Golf and my Leon before buying.
yes, the golf felt more expensive than the Leon, but the Leon had a better spec, looked better, and gave my loads more features for the same price.
Never regretted the decision...

100% spot on! Same for me.

Haven't been in a Fiesta ST. All I can say is I was impressed with the interior of the Leon MKIII compared to MKI and MKII. I will most probably buy one at some point next year. My old LCR needs a cheap to run diesel brother (35k km a year).
