Seat Leon 1.9TDI (110)

[Rhys506]

Well it's a long overdue post, but here's my Leon 1M. It's survived my shenanigans for a few weeks now so it looks like a keeper! She needs a bit of work here and there on the paintwork (might be swapping the bumpers) and definitely new coil overs (current ones are shot). Will probably be putting in a TT ARB since it looks like the last person hasn't done that either, but at least it runs!

Will probably post updates in here every now and then .

Nice keeper. Also have a TDI myself but in black. Swapped those bumpers for a Cupra R (side skirts included) and I'm loving it. Despite a problem on the injectors never had a problem... just fill & drive.

As the owner of. Toledo 1,9tdi 110 ps which we’ve owned since new and apart from the alternator pulley falling off has given us 17 years of trouble free motoring yet Tolly’s get overlooked but Leon’s seem to be leapt upon for updating, upgrading and all manner of tweaks, why ? Especially as the Tolly was the car used in BTCC.in the day. Be nice and don’t slag them off as a matter of course.

I do like the look of the Toledo's too (the way I look at it it's a sedan Leon). This just came up for the right price first, especially as I couldn't afford to spend over a grand on a car for it to need work (was going to get a fez 1.6TDCi but people price them WAY too high).

Been busy today, changed out the Anti Roll Bar for an Audi TT one with PowerFlex bushes. Picked it up yesterday and managed to match the colour with the car! Next step will be to order some new Drop links since the original ones don't seem too happy on there. Also Christened my new Snap-On gun

New ARB installed:

And the new gun for work:

Looks ace! Did you notice any difference with the TT ARB? I could never tell if mine felt any different or not

The car felt a tad more responsive and smoother around corners, need to sort my new coil over kit next as my N/S ones are shot and keeps pulling to the left.
