I maybe coming back

[chillcupra]

To keep it brief. I have had to previous seats, a mk1 leon fr tdi and a mk beezer cupra tdi. In september I bought a brand new civic type r. I have never quite bonded with the car, very good car just miss power. So I have decided to do what I should have done and get a mk1 leon cupra r. I realise I will take a hit on depreciation but hey ho. So on the look out for a low millage 05 cupra r in grey or silver.

awesome, welcome back to the ranks! what didnt you like about the type R? the "asbo" driving style?

Lack of power to be honest. Its fun at first but now its just a pain! I paid 21K for it, its fully loaded. Think i will cry when i get a part x price!

ouch, yeh it will be pretty nasty...even my lcr has lost enough for it to hurt in 9 months...not considering a mk2 cupra then?
