RobD Posted May 19, 2012 Share Posted May 19, 2012 Funny that as I said to Mart the other day I'll be on the look out for a Cupra R once the 200 goes! They're good fun cars, look the nuts and with a remap, rather quick also! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Porky1978 Posted May 19, 2012 Share Posted May 19, 2012 Great cars. As already said, quick remap (TDi, Revo etc) and they really do go. Garrett GT28RS upgrade is quite popular and reliable for a good 300bhp. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest suprasteven Posted May 20, 2012 Share Posted May 20, 2012 With that much you should be able to pick up quite a good one 50k on the clock approx! I had one before the supra and to be honest out off all the cars i ve had that was the most fun loads for your money and once their done up and re-mapped you ll be amazed at how them little light things fly defo recommend them to anyone Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Golfpro Posted May 20, 2012 Share Posted May 20, 2012 You betcha. Will get some serious torque steer with 300 HP through the front wheels. My wife's Fiat Coupe Turbo Plus puts out 220 and that's a handfull when when driving hard. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TubbyTwo Posted May 20, 2012 Share Posted May 20, 2012 i had a 210 cupra r remained to just over 280hp bit of a weapon but mine did go through a stage of blowing coil packs so its worth noting these WILL be a consumable item so its an idea to keep spares. also the front splitter scrapes on everything, its only plastic that clips on so another consumable item. around the £30 Mark from SEAT. also check the footwells for damp as the front and rear door seals are known to clog up which causes water to enter under the door trim and soak the carpets. check the clutch as well as being one with a dual mass fly the whole lot will need changing when it goes. master cylinder included, don't expect much change from £700. aside from that mine was pretty faultless. its now owned by a 21 year old round the corner from me who has pretty much ragged it to death. poor car.

nad300 Posted May 21, 2012 Share Posted May 21, 2012 Nice cars, similar to audi s3 without 4wd mine was 225 bhp in black also very good sellers, sold mine within 2 wks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dan294 Posted May 22, 2012 Share Posted May 22, 2012 Agree with that, I had a brand new one in early 2006, and a normal Cupra before. Only problems I had were a coilpack, air flow meter and damp passenger footwell on the Cupra; Cupra R was flawless. Pretty strong if looked after properly. Stock internals of the engine are very strong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Raven Posted May 22, 2012 Author Share Posted May 22, 2012 I took it out last night, I quite liked it pulled well, nice inside. 4 doors, big boot. Just needs a few changes and its all set. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
