The leons sit ridiculously high as standard! I think mine are as low as they go on the Joms which should be around 60mm i think, not bad for budget coilovers at all to be honest! Love these in white! (y)

always liked the leon fr but was put off by the centre console. the one here looks good what yr did they change?

2008 was the start of the facelift models, then a further change in 2012
2008 models got the interior and bodywork restyled with engine upgrades
2012 seen the introduction of different rear lights

Lovely looking Leon, but I prefer the original wheels myself. Not keen on those ones :worried:. I think it needs lowered a bit more to help pull them off.

Mirrors would look well in gloss black too (y).

Na I like the silver against the white. Seen this a couple times knocking about ards. Looks good in the flesh.

Got the Leon Revo'd yesterday. Its made a huge difference to the way the car drives. So smooth and responsive! Need to go a rolling road day soon for exact figures

Go Stage 2 man then you will know what these CR170's are capable of ;)

Mine is Stage 2 with DPF delete and the best thing I've ever got for me Leon :laughing:

Im happy with it the way it is for now :grinning: Is that all that is required for the Stage 2? No clutch upgrades or anything like that @KJS?

You'll get use to the Stage 1 in no time. Well atleast I did ;)

Yup DPF delete is all that is needed. No clutch slip on mine and plus I don't drive like a hoot ;)

Clutch all depends on how you drive and if you are doing 0-60 every red light :p

Plus stage 2 is only an additional £60 apart from the DPF gutting/delete you get done separately.

Also even with the DPF delete, the car doesn't smoke on booting, so handy during MOT.
