LCR V's New Cupra

[Mitchy]

Evo/autocar done the tests a few months ago buddy. Im sure a search should bring up a few threads

Yes Z, 32k for a good equipped S3 is a hell of a lot of money Cupra all the way

Don't get me wrong, i'd love an S3 im sure many of us would. But they are a bit rich for my pocket. Cupra is a great balance of value versus performance. As was the Cupra R before it.

Owen...Info for S3 0-100

Autocar test shows 13.6s

Cupra IIRC 15.3s (cant seem to find the info tho, but im 99.99% sure )

Remapped Cupra vs Remapped R and im sure the cupra would have the legs and i would hope so too

i am pretty sure if autocar do a test on the cupra it will come in below 14s IMHO

I doubt that very much mate. Autocar have tested the Cupra a few times now. Both times they get about 15.3 - 15.5 0-100.. So a sub 14 sec time would be a big no no IMO.. Remapped, yeah. But standard, can't see it.. My 1/4 mile time is @ Pod, which is slightly uphill too..
As I say before.. Remapped LCR v's New Cupra, LCR quicker.. Both remapped, i'd imagine i'd struggle to be fair. Especially judging by these 300+bhp monsters..

OK my bad, hadnt realised they had tested a cupra... well i am going down the 1/4 mext week so i will see what i get out of mine...

Nice one mate.. Make sure you post up your results.. I'm assuming you're running it Crail though? As Crail is notorious for being quicker than Pod for some reason.. But will still be interested to see results..
