New FR

A loaf of bread, a pint of milk and some toothpaste.

LOL

As suspected - from the seat.uk model line up the sport models are no longer there. No TFSI or 2.0 TDI Sport.

If the Cupra is unveiled in July I'll bounce off the ceiling in excitement.

And grab a box of tissues

With a bit of luck they'll be included in the convenience pack!

That was a bit of a surprise! - "it will be front-wheel drive rather than four-wheel drive" (about the coming Cupra!)

I have an official document from Seat that states that it will be.
Due to the industry I work in we get certain advanced informaton and that
was on the end of something which arrived today from them.

bad source by the sound of it, maybe a prototype at motorshow but thats the main stage for the FR launch so why spoil it? definately wont be in showrooms until 2007

 

[ZBOYD]

I have to agree, but i have requested the validity of the information, from SEAT. Hopefully they can quash any rumours or shed some light either way.

But as i said earlier, prior talk from within SEAT indicated a later in the year launch, but I suppose this doesn't negate a prototipo model.

 

[barnabus]

will be interesting to see what they tell you.....

So did we establish what the Convenience Pack is (other than groceries!)

Yer. Rekon so.

Just driven my mates TFSI again (not done so for a while). Loving it big time.

The FR / Cupra are going to be the dog's danglies without a doubt

does look good, especially in red... and I am tempted with my LCR nearly 4 years old... or should i wait for the Cupra

Quote from Briskoda yesterday about the Leon FR: "The Leon looks like a van to me."

I always suspected Skoda drivers have dodgy eyesight.
