What are the exact specs on that?
What are the exact specs on that?
Its a Cupra 290 Lux, so the list is pretty exentensive.
My understanding is the lux includes
Convieniance pack - Just automatic everything really (lights, wipers, dimming rear view mirror etc)
LED Pack - Just replaces all interior lights with LED ones
Adaptive Cruise Control
Full Heated Leather
Heated washers jets, bottle
Keyless Entry and Go
Wireless Phone Charging
Then the non lux / lux has the following
Digital Cockpit - More customisable than the golf i believe.
8" Infotainment system with DAB, x4 USB slots, x2 SD Card Slots, Apple Car Play, Android Auto, Mirror Link, Sat Nav, Bluetooth
Cupra Performance Interface
Front and Rear Parking sensors
DSG 7 Speed Gearbox
Dual Climate Control
Iluminated Door Cards
Electronic Handbrake
Mechanical Limited Slip Diff
19" Machine Polished Alloys
Stop Start
Hill Hold
Dynamic Chassis Control
The engine is the EA888 which is in the Golf R, and Audi S3 but its running slightly less power (286bhp) as this is FWD and the other two a 4WD, but this weighs less. 0-60 no contest, 4WD always wins, but rolling start this will just edge it due to weight difference and power loss through 4WD system.
Then just the usual stuff most cars have now, ABS, Power steering, you know what i mean the usual list of spec manufacturers add to the spec sheet
For the money they are an amazing car and i have been very impressed so far, but they do lack a bit of refinement the Golf / Audi will have, which is probably where Seat have saved the cash, but dont get me wrong its not night and day differnce. Just suttle
Is it actually a mechanical diff or is it the VAQ e-diff as fitted on the Golf GTI and Octavia vRS?Mechanical Limited Slip Diff
It's an electronically controlled mechanical diff.
Had the mid box chop done recently and am very pleased I didRecently I've had the centre silencer removed from the exhaust and replaced with straight pipe. The car sounds a lot better for it, lots of rumbles and coughs/pops firing out of the back. No annoying exhaust drone either which is a massive bonus! I'm averaging ~27MPG in my car with my daily usage. Sitting on motorways at 70MPH ~35MPG is easily achievable so it's not too bad.
Please turn on the AC
Where's the diverter valve/recirculation valve/blow off valve on those? Are they in a pain the a** location similar to a mk5&6 golf gti?
What a faff still to replace a bit that cost few hundred quid to replace too lol.BOV is under the front bumper so i'll have it replaced with the intercooler.

Well bought my mate which he bought it off my other mate CP-E top mount intercooler for the MPS, took me good 2 hours of my evening to install, had most trouble getting the hoses off the recirc valve,intercooler and air filter box to make bit more room to work with.
