Sold my audi after 2 years and bought this for some fun... Plans are privacy glass, maybe lower it for
Looks although it's harsh enough on country roads

Opinions so far
is it's very plasticky inside, seats are awesome although the backs look silly,

Looks good, feels fast and the sound is amazing, definitely not as well refined as the audi . Considered 07 s3 but to get a 5 dr with same miles (65k) it would literally be twice the cost

Edit- some slightly better pics for @Woodcutter

Looks good dude, the best thing about these is there quite discreet, 300bhp is easily achieved but it still looks like an everyday leon. Good luck with it, looks like you beat the RMS massive to it haha

Had an e46 m3 2 years ago then been driving a derv since, so maybe I forget what a fast car feels like but in some gears it feels every bit as quick as the m3 and i would say with a remap it would be quicker, am I deluded!? The figures to 60 are 6.4 vs 5.2 which is a massive difference!

@ChrisL @Philljdm @mk2 cupra r

Anyone know how to turn of the separate temperature switches in the climatronic system? For example if I turn the heating down in my side I want the passenger side to do it too. I will be devastated if it's not possible. Also all the technical data suggests that my seats had lumbar support, is it adjustable ? I can't find how to do that

I think you hold auto in for 5 seconds or so

Edit: yeah that's defiantly how you do it if memory serves me correct :grinning:

Ill try, although I lost photoshop on my old PC, and did the other transit ones using a free online photo editor jobbie. Not the best but did the job!
Gimme a few mins, see what I can do.
