Alex put my old FR TDI back to standard for me which included removing my SMF kit etc

Decided to give the car its first wash tonight because im at Mum and Dads they dont have a hose pipe ban

50:50

All Clean

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

especially in yellow

I've been tempted to get one myself.

I thought your FR TDI was smart

, so i'm sure you won't dissapoint with this one

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
