In 2003, there was a £2k gap between the
Cupra and the
Cupra R, priced at £17K, and indeed you had all those extras.
If SEAT anounces a 20k price tag, it means that you need to spend £3k more than the LCR 210. And what do you get for that?
- 40 bhp,
- loss of exclusive body kit,
- maybe better seats (to be tested)
- independant rear suspension and hopefully better ride (to be tested)
That sounds like a lot of cash for little improvement over the previous generation.
I like the
Cupra (based on the pictures), but maybe not enough to justify a difference of 3K over my LCR. For that, it would have had to seriously rock.
Now if it's priced at 19k, it's a different story
