SEAT LEON 20V CUPRA R 2005

Seat Leon Cupra R 225

The car comes with a full year's MOT and good service history.

Increasingly few and far between, the Cupra R is a brilliant hot hatch that was one of the quicker VAG cars fitted with the BAM engine.

Other than the gunmetal grey wheels, this car is completely unmodified which is rare in itself. Even in stock form, it's still a pretty nippy car with some good old fashioned turbo lag!!

The car is on just under 141k miles with the cambelt and water pump being changed at 109k miles.

I've owned this car since 2012 putting around 70k miles on it myself and not once has it ever let me down.

I'm only selling as I've just bought a BMW E46 330ci (which I've wanted for ages), so I'll be sad to see the Leon go, but I can't justify having them both!

Last year it had a full OEM suspension overhaul including new springs, lower arms, shocks, top mounts along with various other fittings. Coupled to this is also had new discs, pads and rear calipers. Since all that work it's only covered around 1500 miles (another reason for selling, I just don't use it enough)

Being a 20 year old red car, there is some lacquer peel specifically on the boot spoiler and a bit on the rear bumper, the bonnet does also need a some attention to make it perfect and the wheels would benefit from a refurb at some point too, but it's all completely usable as is!

These Leon's are prone to the door lock actuators failing and also the door seals failing, but these have all been replaced and sorted out, so it's bone dry inside and the doors lock/unlock as they should!

Any questions, please do get in touch! I'm open to sensible offers!
