So here she was on the day I signed the papers. I had to wait 5 days until I could pick her up though, painful! :D

Oh and the black CUPRA stickers on the bonnet will be whipped off quick smart before anyone takes the piss!

Also - why do the brake calipers come with no decals? I've ordered some Brembo stickers already!
 
Love the new R's mate, really love colour choice, can't wait to see proper pics!!!
 
I sat in that very car many many times whilst buying my FR a month ago, it's a feckin beauty mate [B)]
 
So, new wheels or get the current ones dipped? :think: They do these wheels in white as an option, I kind of like that idea but they will be filthy all the time..:confused:

Im thinking the whole spoiler needs wrapped in gloss and the roof too.

Nice choice ;)

You can get some “R” brake retainers from Ebay, which is what I have on mine. They will look much better than Brembo stickers.
 
Because they aren't Brembos. So putting it on them would be worse than the cupra sticker on the bonnet. Other than that it looks very nice.

I thought the LCRs came with Brembos, turns out they are Seat sport brakes so I stand corrected.

Going to the stealers tomorrow to finish off the signatures on the docs so will be asking about getting the bonnet sticker removed pronto
 
Holy crap! Picked her up tonight and took a long drive around the Durham area. Bloody hell it goes like sh*t off a stick! :D

PS Cupra sticker is off the bonnet :thumbup:

So the modifications begin...!

Just fitted wind deflectors and sill guards. Stickers start to go on tomorrow after Ive cleaned her - bloody rain! Battery cover coming next then moving onto the air filter - been looking at intakes but dont really want to cut the engine cover, need to investigate what is possible. Hoping to hit Motorscope over the weekend to check out suspension options, ride height is not great despite having 19s on - speaking of which, I now like the silver wheels!
 
YES! mate get a good panel filter, decat and some coilovers this will be MINT!
