When I got to Newcastle on the ferry from the Netherlands last year, watching from the top deck, I could see one of those car ships unloading loads of Leons onto the dock car park. All of them with protective stuff on and alarm lights flashing, tens of them. I think I made a video - I should upload and share it!

Mostly Ibizas though - but I think there were a few Leons with it as well, not sure, it was 13 months ago.
Don't mind my ugly voice and my sister - talking Dutch...
As I got mine in Newcastle it was quite interesting to see, mine must have come that way as well. Do all UK Seats come into the country via Tyne or only for the North?

I know man, I said before that they should add the 150 TDI. The 1.4 TSI would also be a good hit, I'd seriously consider buying one then.
I guess it doesn't fit into the whole VAG group design chain so e en if Seat wanted to put different engines in they couldn't. maybe I'm talking sh*t.
Thats an insight man, thanks for sharing. For some reason i thought they came in boxes (?) or something. Never really thought that people would have to drive them off lol. What a job that must be...
Yeah the Tsi would be better. But least they have upped it from 105 to 110 ps lol.
Could you imagine is you caught on on video doing wheel spin and handbrake turn lol

Hahaha! I was gonna ask you but as you hadn't replied in a while I didn't want to rub salt in.
Wednesday is good and at least you have a date!! Post pics when you get it tho!
Well it's finally arrived, took it for a wee spin and it's awesome! I'll get some pics up later or tomorrow as it's currently chucking it down outside. Got a nice drive down to Crick later today so will have the chance to give it a run on the motorway.
Only thing I've noticed so far was that the wing mirror wasn't dipping when in reverse. Checked the set-up and it's currently selected, is there anything further I need to do, or something I'm missing with this?

Wooooooooo!!
Yeah defo get some pics up soon.
You need to set the mirror into the 'L' position and it will dip when in reverse.

In addition to setting it to "L" there is an option in the MFD, mine came with it ticked already. Once all is setup, you can move the joystick to your desired position and it will return to that place every time you select reverse.
Glad your pleased with it, 4 months in I'm still grinning.

Thanks for that guys, works fine now! I'm guessing it was working originally but wasn't set much differently to the standard.
One thing that has happened is that the stop/start function has stopped completely. I can't say I'm too fussed about this really but just wondering as to why it has?
Suns out today so will try and get a few snaps!

There are a lot of factors that will stop the Start/Stop working
Couple are,
- Vents set to Windscreen
- Car not Reached the internal temp set on climate control
- Start/Stop battery level low
- Wheel turned more than 1/4 turn
- On a hill with large gradient
- Engine temp not enough
Plus more cannot remember off top of my head.
Look forward to seeing some pics of the car
