I know I'm not a Cupra owner etc, but so far I've had 40,000 of my tyres and only about half worn

I'm a 2010 Seat Leon Ecomotive 1.6TDI Owner - 43,100 miles on the clock. Average MPG in my sig, and no DPF lights etc because it's driven how a diesel should be

March 2010 - March 2012 - *****'s Demo Car, 3,500 miles

March 2012 - Present - My car, 43,100 miles.

Only things I've had problems with are:

Tyres at 4,000 miles because the ones on it were shite.
Drivers window regulator went, and was changed under warranty.
Wheel bearing changed under warranty.

I've also added:

LED Rear Lights
LED Interior Lights
HID Kit
Seat Leon Speed Leather Gear Knob

It does make a few 'strange' noises, but I think it's just the natural noise of the engine, nothing bad that I can see!

Nothing else but something in evap system keeps lighting up my engine light 1-2 times / full tank on petrol. Does not affect on anything and im thinking of disabling the whole system.
