Also Mum gave me a Leather cleaning kit from one of her friends Mercedes (He gets a new Merc every year so gets alot of gifts with them)


So i gave the Seat's a clean and condition, they feel and look better now

Looking awesome mate, I really like these Cupra R's  :happy2: especially in yellow :smiley: I've been tempted to get one myself.

I thought your FR TDI was smart  :happy2:, so i'm sure you won't dissapoint with this one  :smiley:

Keep up the good progress,

Cheers

FR TDI was 228bhp and 370lb.ft, it was stiff and low, very torquey

Cupra R OEM felt pants, ive now lowered her and running APR Stage1 its alot faster

When buying the 42 Draft Design bushes where at that price?
42 Draft VW Shifter Bushing Kit can it be got for an 06 mk5?
If it's not broke, Mod it.....



Silver is the way !
