Hi all. I’m getting a MK1 Leon!

[Pego]

Firstly hi all, I’ve been scouring the boards over the last few days as I’m taking ownership of a MK1 Leon Cupra next week from a family member who had owned the car for a number of years. It’s pretty tidy and has been fairly trouble free. It’s got bags of history and receipts from the last ten years or so but I’m sure they’ll be a few things to get sorted and that’s why I’m here. I’m probably gonna rely heavily on the knowledge on these boards.


ive just edited the post to remove noob questions in the intro.

many thanks.

Welcome to the forum and SEAT ownership.

Love the MK1 Leon, still a firm favourite with most people on here.

You'll have to get some images up when you get the car

Definitely will do. It’s had what seem to be most of the common mods done but hasn’t been driven hard. Certainly not in the time it’s been owned by said family member, anyway. I plan on getting it looked over fully when funds allow. I love the car and want to keep it running well. It’ll be a weekend/sunny weather car in order to enjoy it as long as possible.

Cheers for the welcome guys. Getting some pics sent over so I’ll post them shortly.

Here are some pics. These are a couple of years old and were the pics taken at the time it was purchased by the family member. It’s identical to this with 4.5k miles added. Interior is so clean still, leather is in amazing shape for the age. It’s not an R but has some bits added.

Many thanks. The intention is for this to be a weekend bit of fun but I feel myself going down rabbit holes already. God help me.
