Info on Leon Cupra R

Hi,

i am thinking about replacing my Astra H Sri with a leon Cupra R, but have some questions.

how much does an average service cost?

are they any know problems?

know insurance is going to be high, just hoping that when i turn 25 in sept will be able to get it under £1,000!!!!

if anyone has any other helpful info please let me know..

Look at the sticky at the top of this forum (Mk1 Section)!

Know problems on LCRs...
MAFs, Coil Packs, Water Leaking in.

Welcome by the way.

service costs vary a fair bit, 10k services (10, 30, 50, etc.) are cheap as chips but 40 and especially 60 can be quite pricey because they actually involve a bit of work (i jut paid £190 ex vat for my 40k).

im 23 and my insurance is about 720 with 3 yrs ncb.

very few major problems with lcr's, awesome cars!

your biggest problem will be blowing all your money on mods!
