Well the Leon's been away for a few months now and this is its replacement.
Very different beast compared to the Cupra. The Stronic box coming from a manual still catches me out lol. The car itself is awesome, much more civil than the harder Cupra. Mod wise it's mapped with a full scorpion exhaust (which is near silent unfortunately). I wouldn't mind a bit more noise lol. Inside it's got a shed load of toys, super sport seats, carbon inlays, B&O sound system which sounds amazing to name but a few. An RS6 gear knob and a custom flat bottom steering wheel are the only differences over standard. Got a few things planned but I'm not gonna go full on as much as I did with the Cupra. This one will be more user friendly. Anyways here's a few pics.

I keep looking at these recently! How are you finding it so far? S-tropic boxes decent? I'm trying to convince myself that the costs wouldn't be too much more than a 3.0tdi getting very bored of driving a 2.0 tdi Golf!

The gearbox is pretty awesome tbh. Very easy to use and seemless when giving it the beans. I've used manuals all my driving life and still do as I have a fiesta diesel for work so the Audi box is still very weird to me. I still go for the clutch and a gear lever lol.

Absolutely lovely things these are.
What plans have you got for it then? Power mods or just little bits and bobs?
Not a fan of the red leather but I don't like red leather in any cars haha.
Audi puddle lights aren't my taste either.

Plans are a bit of both, power and looks.
Bit of adjustment to the existing exhaust to give a better note. CTS intake for more charger whine then a Pulley, belt and map to suit. Should hopefully be near the 500bhp mark then.
Outside a set of 20s, H&R super sport -40mm springs, dechrome the window surrounds and some black badges for the rear. Oh and fit the supercharged badges on the wings.
