Leon Cupra R 225. ( Oz Cup's now fitted)

[qed296]

Hi folks....got a few pic's now the cars clean.
Standard spec at the mo....erm....well...Forge Split R DV fitted(only as the o/e one was not working)...Green filter... tints all round...black front badge ...mini ariel and removed the "LEON" from the boot.Looking to get the wheels refurbed...going for the same colour.
Really chuffed with the car,a big step up form my mk4 golf gti.She's got 70 thou on the clock and is nice and clean....I'am sure to be getting to what remains of the shows and hope to meet some of you.

Comments welcome

Loving the car mate. Quick question, where did you get your small number plate made at the front? Been thinking of doing it on my MK2 Leon for a while now

Thanks,
Danny.

Places like

do smaller plates, I used a 3/4 front and std size rear without any trouble from the plod

Although switching to black and silver plates wasn;t such a good idea

Cheers folks....had to view a couple of real dogs before i found this one.

Ref the plate i made it at work,but there loads of places like fancyplate that let you sumit the size you want.

Hows it goin peeps...??

A quick look on ebay has proved fruitful.Not only did i pick up a Nomad piller pod in black for the great price of £20 but also a Autogauge boost gauge for £5!! Both as new.

I was going to post pics but iam sure you've seen them before....

Wheels go in soon for a refurb...ill post pics of these..nowt major for these,going for the o/e colour.

an absolute beast you got there mate. pretty much exactly what i would do if i had a Cupra R

 

[qed296]

Well its been an age since i added any pics, cleaned the car today so got a couple of quick pictures taken before the rain.

Not really done much apart from tax/mot and keep it clean.Oh and a full caliper refurb, pain staking but really worth it.

Wheels have been treated to a refurb. To be honest a refurb is a lie, there wasnt a mark on them it was just a colour change to anthricite. ( these will be up for sale in the next week)

Lovely looking example, first time I have ever thought 'maybe I should have got a black one' lol. Good job and keep up the good work!

Forgot about the front badge, painted it red and black and slotted the cupra into the grill.

 

[turbo009]

Looking good,looking after well I see. Red badge looks sweet!

 

[qed296]

Thanks. I'am always looking to do things but in the back of my mind theres that nagging thought about if i want to sell on.

I'am sure its a daft thought but then again most people wont standard R's.

 

[cupra-barn]

I like the badge looks great.

Hope your enjoyin the car

Finaly got my wheels. There the Oz Cup wheels from the racer's.
Had them refurbed in anthracite to dark to get some pics up now.
Ill get some taken saturday morning.
Really glad i held out for them now.

 

[qed296]

Whats your views folks?

 

[sambryant]

they look very nice but imho the standard ones looked slightly better. however it what you think about them that counts.
the standard wheels are very hard to better, but i do like your new alloys
