Nearly 10 mins of video here: http://youtu.be/1m3MPAimfks

No decent sound as this is for the media to use for edits with their own soundtrack etc.

It is certainly an understated, good looking Q car. Much prefer the SC look too, but unfortunately 5 doors a must for us. Vid gives a good comparison of the standard seats at 1:13 and buckets at 1:24, buckets win it for me.

Not keen on enforcement of 19" wheels, I know they supposedly look better but they should reduce the price of the 280 and make them an option. 18" makes more sense on British roads and there seems to be a big price difference for decent rubber in 19 versus 18 inch.

I want one though!

Really shaping up to be a fantastic car.

Looking at the interior toys (around 00:25) in the video heated seats might not be a standard fit in the cupra. I'm assuming heated seats are part of the "winter pack"?

Also the optical parking system.......is that camera based or using a graphical representation from the sensors front and rear?


...... Can't enter the competition...not enough posts :-(

Not standard no. The sensors are graphical, no camera.

Cheers, have got the reversing sensors and camera on my Focus (dodging the rotten fruit heading my way! Ha!) and the camera always ends up under a few mm of muck after several long drives. So a graphical setup seems better to me.

May have to opt for the heated seats though!

According to braodspeed Alor blue is now available on the Cupra £695 option

Just googled the colour , not my cup of tea would have preffered a bit darker like speed blue.
