Jezzer's big mouth

IMHO the T-FSI was far better to drive than the ST and the VXR if not as outright quick and more to the point far less common. I live in Essex and after the initial waiting list has disappeared STs will be on every street - unlike my Black T-FSI on 18"

Tbh, before I bought my ST I did consider the Leon, but like many others I just couldn't get over the styling. A car is most likely to be second most expensive thing you buy in your lifetime (after your house) so what's the point buying something you don't like the look of? Who cares if it's common? At the end of the day car purchasing is an emotive process and you'll choose what you like, not what somebody says is cool or not cool.

i agree with clarkson sorry i know i own a mk 1 but the new ones look like a shrunk people carrier.

you are so right Rob, i was 'that' close to buying an ST but after seeing the Leon in the flesh so to speak and doing a testdrive on the TFSI i was really blown away. this will be my first proper new car so i am splashing out on the Cupra and i dont doubt it will be worth the wait. i think the TFSI is amazing as well and on 18'' looks amazing .
