I wanna see it!
When are we getting to see the official pics?


Not sure about official pics - other than the ones already released. I'm sure Mork will put pictures up as soon as he gets a chance. He's probably listening to Seat's press briefing at the mo.

Ok just spoke to m0rk, presentation has just ended, went down very well it seems with the media. He's taken a number of pics of the car being unveiled by JP and Thommo, and several others.

He's heading over to the media centre now, so we should have pics in a short while. He's then going back over when its quieter to take lots of high res pics, without all the worlds media stood round it and in it. ;)

So, SEAT fail to deliver yet again? I'm sorry but it's neither special enough looking (the BTCC bodykit/twin exhausts etc looked better) or interesting enough performance wise to cut it. If SEAT really wanted to be taken seriously in the performance market they REALLY needed to get a 4WD Cupra on the roads - it's the one thing my current car lacks that i'd want (I already have the power). Having sat in the new Leon (FR) I really hoped they do something about the nasty cheap feel interior too - looks like not tho eh?

I'll go take a test drive in it once they've got it in at Marshalls - and i'll do it with an open mind - but i think i'm going to be hard pressed to chop in the leon and fork out a few thousand (quite a few) for what looks to be very little net gain. Wetting myself about it I am not ;)

Think im going to have to have a look at these in the flesh, before i make up my mind. Not too keen on them from some angles.

Fancy Seeing the Black one though

indeed, seeing as the hands are tied by VW and Audi (no 4wd) i think they have done a great job

Maybe in black, with a Cupra R front spliter and lowered a touch :think:

Followed by remap, exhaust and induction kit.

Possibly a beast?

Exactly Syphon, bring it on, having driven a new FR, I can say with undoubted fact, it hands the old Leon its arse on a plate, straight out of the box, its a better equiped , better handling motorcar.

And having owned two now, im fairly qualified to say that.

Why has the cupra pics in the media centre got painted callipers and not brembos?

Though it’s probably just a base model that they’ve put the bumpers, wheels, etc on for the photos, it is a bit slack if you ask me.

Stop viewing the pics on SEATs media site, its slowing down like a snail :D Once ive got them on SCN it'll be quicker to view.

they only have the yella one on the media site.. would be *really* nice if they released it in other colours apart from yellow, red and black.. metallic blue would be gorgeous...

Yeah but lets face it that's not a great feat is it, you can make most cars handle better than an oil tanker if you get it right :lol:

Looking at the pics of the seats I have to say :drool: hmmm Sombody write one off ASAP so I can have the seats :D
