Ah missed that, is that with the same desposit?

Deposit plus there process fee was 2200 then monthly rental at £375 this was only for 12.5k miles per year. If I could of got the deposit as only £1000 I would happily pay the £375

CAR HAS ARRIVED!!! my god its amazing! can confirm exhaust does make a noise on the upshift, just not as loud as the old 290 but maybe in time!
Congrats mate.

And thanks for the confirmation.

So far I'm hearing

*The exhaust is throatier than the previous versions as standard.

* The pops and bangs are still there if you know how to induce them. I.e warm exhaust, letting the revs drop between 4k - 3k (may be easier to induce using the paddles)

Very mixed reviews on the upshift sound though. Ironically I thought this would be the only thing it would still have as it's been there since the 280 before the sports exhaust.

I, now on the verge of putting an order in for the Cupra st lux with driver assistance pack. It’s on a 4 year lease, 13k per year, full maintaince and tyres.

£2500 Dow with rentals at £350 a mom all including vat. Is anyone got anything simerlar or better then can advise me of.
Out of interest, why 4 years? Leases rarely work out for the better if you go over 24 months. Plus, if you get bored after two or three years then you'll be liable for either 100% of the lease costs per month if you go though a company like Arval or 55% if you're financed by VWFS themselves.

I thought this too.

The manufacturer warranty is usually 3 unless specified at sale or extending through the dealership.

Then there's an M.O.T

I've had my lease 3 years and have to put it through an M.OT next week. Had to convince VWFS to reimburse the costs.

Is that all accounted for in the fully maintained deal? Or is it just servicing?

I understand the 4 years as a PCP deal.
