nice car's, don't handle very well, but stick some eibach springs and it'll improve alot... nice quick engines which can handle over 300bhp easily, stik a jabbasport chip onand it'll fly, but becarefull about choice of bov and ind kit both can fek the car up!

tyres are expensive for them and i found the seatbelt fixing squeaked if you grab it and start shaking it violently, part from that they are sweet

Drove one two days before they came out as a pal got it as a demonstrater. V fckin fast. Boot it in 2nd and it wont stop pulling till half way up 5th then kicks again in 6th. Crazy stuff. I did have a website which i will try to find that did really nice vented carbon bonnets for them.

i suppose maybe i am comparing to a ctr as been in both ctr and cupra r, but the general feelign of the cupra is they don't handle well as standard, most people on seatcupra.net believe this also!
