I've just taken delivery of a vz2 today as a lease and waved goodbye to our
cupra 300 (much missed already). Overriding impressions are brakes are rubbish and it feels almost diesel like in its power delivery (not much power in the low end but more of a cruiser). Tbh I am disappointed in the 310bhp engine. The pickup on the
cupra 300 was nuts compared to this and it stopped extremely effectively from day one. I'd like to hope it's a brake bedding in issue but that doesn't explain why the engine feels a bit gutless. No DSG bangs either :'(. I feel very grown up all of a sudden.
*probably good to add that I drive these dsg cars in
cupra mode and gearbox in manual mode so I can stay in control of the revs and shifts.
