I'll never cease to be amazed at the shocking quality of photos that dealers use in their ads.

Main merc dealer and they are driving cars out to the Curragh plains to take pics. All they are missing is the reversing into water shot.

I was thinking the same. I thought parking the car in a field was the preserve of the Felt-spec brigade...

Are you mad, sure the price is a hotel would go towards the price of a good set of tyres!

Investing in rubber is a good idea either way. :pac:

The new Cupra has been announced with no less than 4 different versions. Really like those 5-spoke alloys.

I love it, but I am afraid of price tag on this.
And I really love that they decided to offer different power outputs. I'll be honest, 242 petrol only variant just perfect for me.

Would love to get in to Current model Cupra, and 3 years later I'll be able to pick up 1-2 year old one new model.
Its a shame **** all for sale.

I also like the sound of the petrol only 242hp version. Hopefully they won’t cost an absolute fortune.

That’s what I’m hoping to do also when my current pcp is up, move to that 306bhp ST 4drive model. I’m curious if feels much different to the current FWD ST. Shame they dropped the flag badges but it’s still gorgeous looking I think.

Picked up the auto GTD today. Wow sooooo much handier to drive and feels faster, goes thru the gears lightning fast. Love it so far ha

Rare to see the GTD on upgraded wheels and not in white. Very nice!

Super looking car. Well wear

Apparently it was a demo sold originally by them in 2017. VW Michael Moore. Apparently people were still calling the next day after the ad was taken down. I saw it go up an evening and put a deposit next morning. Been waiting about 6 months for the spec from a VW garage so couldn’t let it pass! Still a novelty to drive an auto, love it!

Is it metallic black, might be worth getting a ceramic coating, will look super and a bit easier keep clean. Well wear.
