new cupra R

[tony_danza]

Very nice - only needs the 4wd platform now to be a contender...

Our neighbours in France had a MKI 4WD LCR. Was there a MKII 4WD too?

i doubt id ever have the petrol cars over the golf but the diesels they churn out beat most things hands down on the looks department .

Like that, need to see dash though

I think you might be right. It certainly wasn't an LCR. It looked more like a cupra.

Mk1 Leon 4wd was a 2.8 V6 same as the mk4 4 motion Golf

I also like it! Looks pretty sharp, and I imagine it offers belter VFM.

I quite like that. Only criticism is that I don't feel the centre exhaust suits it. I think a big tail on either side would have looked better.

That's easily remedied tho and the car otherwise looks spot on. If I were in the market for a new car I'd have a right old time separating this from the new A3 which I think is equally handsome.

I really like it. 

Anyone else think it has a Honda Civic Type-R look to it?

Oh, how odd - it's badged as an LCR and has the same kit/brakes etc. I'll have a nose under the bonnet next time I'm over.

[Eddie-NL]

have to say I like it too

I think LED front lights are available on the SEAT too

at least Seat and Audi have kept the interior lighting for the buttons / switches backlit Red

(White Cluster lighting and Red back lighting for everything else)

unlike the new golf

where everything is white

[sub39h]

Tbh I dunno why Audi dropped the red cluster lighting. I've always really liked it

[Tfsi_Mike]

I understand the idea behind red back lighting but im my Leon found it quite drab.  Converted to crisp white smds and looks much better to me.
Doesn't disctract my attention at all.

I wish my Light switch for interior lights was backlit.  Just one of those quality touches...

Certainly very odd, but a great car if they have built their own! 

The mk1 4wd versions were badged up as 'Cupra4' and 'Cupra4 tdi', regular cupra body kit and spec but either a 2.8 or 1.9 diesel
