Post Pic's of Your Mk3 Leon In Here

[spiltmonkeez]

Hi gang,

Here is a pic of my 2017 300.

I picked her up 3 weeks ago and I am loving her.

61k miles.

Just treated her to a new set of Conti Sport Contact 7’s, a DSG, Haldex, Oil and full service including spark plug change.

She is completely stock apart from me changing the reverse bulb to an LED.

Every fart, pop and bang brings such a smile to my face. I’m 47 and it makes me feel like I am 17 again.

I heavily read this forum before purchasing and found it invaluable.

Nice. I've got a 300 manual in Mystery blue. I'm 45 and yeh it does make you feel younger. Every time im approaching the car to get in a huge smile comes across my face and I've had mine for over 2 years now. I'll be getting a new exhaust probably this summer just to accentuate the pops and bangs a little. Nothing daft though.

Sounds delicious. Great colour too.
Make sure you share a before and after when you get the new pipes fitted.

Hope I pass you on the road one day!

I was 70 when I bought my Cupra ST300 4drive.

Two years on it still brings a smile to my face every time I drive it.

I've had quickish cars most of my driving career, and back in the 70's rallied a 970cc Mini Cooper S, tuned to develop 100 bhp. The Cupra has exactly the same power to weight ratio but feels much quicker whilst being easy to drive. The Mini ticked over very lumpily and had zero power below 3000 rpm with a 731 half race cam and a 40 thou overbore.

Until your reactions go you are never too old to enjoy a quick car.

I`m 70 soon and on my second Cupra, now in a 20 plate R ST ABT and love it.

@spiltmonkeez congrats! Please note; if you have the radio on and you will put it in reverse, it will interfere with the radio signal. Thats because of the LED bulb

The black Borbet Y-wheels look great on this color, well done

J'ai remplacé mes jantes noires par des dorées

 

[tracktoy]

Love the gold wheels they go very well with the white car.
J'adore les jantes dorées, elles vont très bien avec la voiture blanche.

Swapped back to my summer set as the weather is getting progressively better in the Netherlands.

@gege28 Looks great! I have a very similar setup. Black OE wheels for winter and bronze MM-06 wheels for summer. Which wheels are the golden wheels?

Well I got my baby back after just under a 2 year loan to my daughter - (I must be mad!)

She has a few issues which need dealing with but it will give me something to do:

fix knock from NSR
get MIB2 HU fitted
remove / replace front splitter and side skirts
remove standard springs and either get Eibach Pro springs or Bilstein coilovers
check/replace door speakers - anyone got any suggestions?
sort out the abysmal paintwork, she doesn't look this good anymore I can see claybar and polishing in my future

Got in my 2015 plate Cupra 280 and was greeted by this very round number.
