I like the silver bits on and around the dash! - is that standard?

Kit that can be sourced via the dealer

 

[Ruddmeister]

any idea roughly how much those mods would have added...i think i am gonna change the airfilter for a BMC one....

Exhaust and BMC maybe 5bhp and slightly better spool

Take your car to somewhere like Awesome Gti in Manchester and ask them if they can check if it has a remap (Apr or otherwise)

I wonder were the previous owner got his inspiration from? Good taste!!

Thats wher i have seen the leather before! Thought i recognised it!

 

[fishtoasty]

That leather is niceeeeeee Yum....

Think i would like the door cards in black tho on a black car....

Thanks again for the support and intrest lads

Don't mind me asking, how much was that re-trim? I'd go for a full black trim. However I'm looking at leaving the Seat fold for an older S3 or 4motion golf. If I could afford it I'd move to a MK4 R32 in a shot.

Very nice car though

Th retrim for my polo was about £1300 and involved icons and rear mounted headrests being put in place....

here is a photo...

That was done in a place called autotrim ltd in denton near stockport

Ouch, it's a lot of dosh and as much as I'd love leather in the car I'd put that money towards a better spec'd motor. Mmmm 4motion golf with recaro leather

 

[Somchaie]

thanks

The exhaust is not a standard one its a miltec one when i had a close look at it before...

How much will an airfilter with cold air feed and a exhaust add onto the bhp???

about 5bhp? as this is what it has on it already...

Ross

Hmm interesting.... I picked up my LCR just under a month ago and it has the same exhaust. Got it from a VW main dealer and they did'nt mention that anything had been changed from standard.

 

[fishtoasty]

does thatmean it is a standardexhuast then??? haha

[dan__smith]

Very nice!

Only thing I'd do is remove the LEON letters from the boot....

Personal preference tho

 

[fishtoasty]

May remove the letters...depends how i fell when i get it this saturday lol....

Is there ever a big meet up every year for this forum where everyone gets together for a weekend leon show....

we do one every year on club polo in august and go the billingaqua drome for a polo show and camping and stuff...is there anything like that on this forum...

Ross

 

[dan__smith]

There are national meets...Havn't been to one yet, but would be cool to fill up a car park with Leons

Rear door stickers

Hi all,
New guy to the site and new Cupra R owner which is my pride and joy, but was wondering where you can get those door stickers from? any ideas would be grateful.
Also is it common for Cupra R's to pull to the left slightly, have seen one or two threads of others complaning?
Fantastic site by the way!

 

[dan__smith]

door stickers....try fleabay.
My LC doesn't pull to the left....Don't remember reading any threads on it either, but who knows, there might be someone
