SiiMo Posted May 28, 2009 Author Report Share Posted May 28, 2009 Nice colour!Looks fantastic mate, how does it feel?Does it feel as big as a golf or more like a 9N?I've not been in one of those before.Whats the plans for it?Thanks few hours of polish and wax to get the shine back , Doesn't feel that much bigger than the lupo when drving just when you look back its got more lol, umm slighty smaller than a golf prob same as a fabia VRSNo plans as such, maybe get the alloys refurbished in black and get the door strips colour coded Bet thats a bit quick! Whats it handle like compared the the GTI?The handling is pretty good much better than a standard GTi, its a firm ride and doesn't have much body roll not alot more than the lupo on my coilovers tooI do think the back end would kick out quite easy tho so i want to get some spacers on the rear.

Toi gulp Posted May 28, 2009 Report Share Posted May 28, 2009 Very nice, ive allways liked the cupra's and again a fine example.240bhp in a FWD practical good looking compact hatchback, love it.Nearly twice the power of the lupo in an only slightly larger package, you cant go wrong.

Mike_M Posted May 29, 2009 Report Share Posted May 29, 2009 Very nice and almost got one of these instead of the GTI when I was looking at the time.I have also seen these with the 18" Leon Cupra rims on which are slightly bigger/wider and it suits the car loads.
