Looking at a 2001 Cupra - what's missing?

Seen a 2001 LCR on ebay. From the photo it looks like there are bits missing from the front bumper. Are these easily replaced?

That definitely doesn't look right, does it?! Since both sides are missing I'd assume that they are individually replaceable, but you'd have to have them sprayed properly after buying them which wont be cheap!

Yup - 2nd baby due in 4 weeks so TT225C is going, and have a £4k max budget to replace with a hatchback/saloon.

I really fancy a Cupra - even an early LC would be fine. 180bhp, easily tunable (if I'm allowed) is better than another bloody passat!

Missed out on a 2001 Y reg for £3k on ebay last night.

Wouldn’t go near that car if i were u, was gonna go look at it myself, was told it had a strong smell of smoke in it, also its repossessed due to owner not paying his bills, (if he cant afford to look after his house then I wouldn’t of thought he could look after his car.

By the way its been on sale for over 3 months now, if it was that good then why hasn’t it been snapped up. Just some advice but I could be wrong.

Thanks for the heads up - appreciated. I did wonder. There is alsio a 2003 Ovni Yellow on ebay for £3500. Advertised 3 times now - obviously a scam.

Struggling to find a decent 2000/2001 Cupra for the £3500 mark. Need to replace urgently (TT being collected today). If any of you know of a good one, please let me know.

Otherwise it is boring mobile time :(

Cheers

You'll be very lucky to get one for that price mate even at astronomical mileage. Ebay, a thorough test drive/inspection and an HPI check are your friends here.
