What did you want to know?
210 or 225 standard, remap to 270 on standard exhaust, induction etc.
Brembo 4 pots as standard.
front suspension setup same as TT iirc.
6 speed, cloth recaro interior, climate, Traction control, ESP.
decent examples starting at 9k i think.
Outstanding value for money, great performance and best use of the mk4 golf chassis platform so handles good as well. Very tuneable. VAG build quality.
Try and name a better overall package for the money? i certainly cant.

I'd rather have a mk4 1.8 20vT ibiza TBH
seen a video of 1 beating a 500bhp+ mustang on the 1/4 mile

but a leon has exactly the same potential as the ibiza to get to taht tuning level to beat the mustang as well.
I dont have the R just a normal leon cupra on 51 plate in silver, genuine cupra R front bumper, rear bumper and 18" cupra R wheels + a remap to 220 bhp. 60 miles FSH and mint, only paid £4700 for it as well, now thats value for money

Ibiza is only 180bhp out of the box, or is it 160?
Plus Leon trim/comfort > Ibiza.
Slightly
