What did you and your MK2 do today?

[mrbubba]

Getting frustrated now, my Cupra has been in the workshop for almost 4 weeks now, the engine is all built again, but they can't get it to run smoothly, they thought it was the timing, but they've ruled that out now.
I had my Octavia vrs for 5 years and no issues for around 50k, only cost me servicing money and I've had the Cupra for a year and done around 12k and so far this issue has cost me almost £2500 !
I'm getting stick now for buying "cheap" Seat's as my Mrs had all sorts of issues with her mk1 Leon

This is a nasty, nasty thread. I started on page 1, currently on page 74 and have a huge list of things to do. Just thought I'd have a browse through to get some ideas for my new(to me) mk2 Cupra and now have a huge list ranging from little mods like interior led strips to major engine mods. I even have a big list of cleaning/polishing products, by the time read the next 160 odd pages I'll be bankrupt.

Saw a fair few Leons driving around on my way to work this morning, a nice white FR with BTCC Kit weaving in and out of traffic, not good lol

But the one to remember was the standard Leon with a Cupra R Badge in the grille, BIG FAIL lmao

Nearly as bad as the Fr me and Andy saw at Donnington with both Fr & R badges on the front lol

It is funny though, dont know what they are trying to achieve. I know its their own car but dont badge it to something its not. Does it add an extra 5-10BHP or something because I damn sure could use an extra few ponies lmfao

Gave the car a clean yesterday as the weather was nice no doubt it will rain now. I used Autoglyms aqua wax which works quite well.

 

[TarekElsakka]

Oh man I love those tail lights. The car looks stunning.

 

[Sockdog]

Yep a FR with a Cupra R grill fitted including the R badge


Worst thing is its either a AMD Staff car or a AMD Fan as it had the big AMD Stickers at bottom of doors aswell

New number plates including a smaller front, makes such a difference!

Whats the dimensions of that gront plate? I fluffed up and got 9" x 3"

All the laminate and the 'GB' prefix are peeling off mine coz it vibrates loads on tickover, need to swap it quick.
