What did you drive before you joined the LEON stable?

[TubbyTwo]

I'm saying the VTEC engine is not impressive, but the last one I had cost me 8 points and a £600 fine !! So they do go a bit....... just not advisable in front of plod

ouch!

They make perfect country road barnstormers

I've had my MK2 55 plate 2.0 DSG TDI Sport for a week now, and I'm more than happy with it.

Previous to that I had a 2.0 MK3 Mondeo Zetec that I had basically run into the ground, and the difference is incredible

Currently got a 07' plate A4 Avant 2.0 170 TDI.

Just ordered a Leon FR Speed blue

 

[Cupra Steve]

I had a Navara as well. (Outlaw). Loved it but not very practical.

 

[Kaza]

I used to own a 1.6 1996 Renault Megane coupe...bit of a jump going to a 2.0 turbo, but got to admit I love the change

 

[George Grayson]

Used to drive a Ford Focus 1.6 Zetec,very reliable but made the change to a 58 reg Leon FR Tdi in speed blue and i Love it!! Turns quite a few heads aswell,something that an old Focus doesnt

Used to drive a 2005 plate Audi A3 2.0 TDi Sport. Part ex'd it for an 08 plate SEAT Leon 1.9 Stylance. The Audi was just not reliable. Well the engine wasn't anyway. Here's to happy motoring in the Leon.

1.0 Pug 106 M reg - Surprisingly fun (good chassis, bit like driving a go cart!)
1.8 V6 Mazda MX3 - not RWD but still had good poke - not bad for the money either.

[Dan_FR_DSG]

I've bought a 58 reg Leon FR DSG in Red with BTCC body kit. Will be picking it up next week. Prior to this I have had (in date order):

08 reg Skoda Octavia 1.9tdi DSG Ambiante
56 reg Honda Civic EX 1.8 vtec i-shift
03 reg Hyundai Coupe 2.0 Auto
X reg MGF SE Steptronic
W reg Lexus IS 200 SE Auto
52 reg Honda Civic 1.6 vtec SE Auto
V reg Vauxhall Corsa 1.2 Auto

I can only drive automatics and I've driven many types. The Corsa was the worst closely followed by the Coupe. The 1.6 Civic had the smoothest gearbox and the MG was a death trap but tons of fun.

Can't wait to get the FR. I fear I might be getting more post from the man in the yellow jacket holding the hair dryer.

Oh and first post. Hello!

[willi2i]

Honda Accord Type R

Which I've had for 9 years (and still have) till I can bring myself to sell it.....But need to

Needed to get something a little more ecomonic due to amount of motorway miles I'm doing...So the new Leon rs is a good compromise
