Leon Cupras in Sussex?

[marc4242]

Hi All

First a small confession in that I'm struggling to actually settle on what car I want to replace my MR2. I started off thinking 1.1 litres 60mpg summat, decided life is too short, then thought of Honda Civic Type R, then Clio, and now I'm kind of thinking a Leon, as I like the 5 door practically allied with zippyness (I had a Golf VR6 some years ago too). Is there anyone in the Sussex area (I'm in brighton) where I could come round and have a bit of a static look at yours, and I could learn a bit about the ins and outs of the marque (in addition to looking at the info on there (this is a wonderful website btw))? I'm thinking a 'T' at the moment, but whatever you have sub 8 secs 0-60 would be of interest ...

Oh, one Q if I may, I saw a Cupra advertised recently, 2 services are 13+k miles apart, unless there were additional oil changes apart from the services I don't much like the sound of that, is it a cause for concern? I'm not used to modern cars yet, but for my MR2 a service is usually either nk miles or annually whichever comes sooner.

Thanks
Marc

Thanks for the comments on those 2 vehicles Wayne, and I hope you don't have to give up the Leon!

Hi Mark

Thanks that would be great, I'm at Goodwood / Chi all day tomorrow probably finish there about 5/6pm. Could you pm me as I can't pm you ...

You must be a *real* enthusiast which a message count like that! I have really liked my MR2s over the last 5 years, but am only up in the 500s.
