I've had my 2016 Cupra 290 Black for 6 years now. It has done me proud (well, apart from the water pump) and been a lot of fun. Hugely practical and driveable; insane if you want to plaster a big smile on your face. But are there problems on the horizon? Maybe it's time for something else? My wife doesn't like the hard ride (she has a bit of a back problem) and is beginning to moan (not in a good way) The car is in excellent nick, 36,000 miles and the only thing I really dislike is the rather crappy satnav. Also, I have a sneaky suspicion it may become a hot hatch "classic" in years to come, and actually go up in price.
What do you experts think?
I don't select "Cupra" mode very often any more (especially in the Autumn and Winter). Is it time for a Ford Focus? To give up a few BHP? And let's not forget the incredible braking - will I run into things?
Ah decisions, decisions.
