yellow cupra k1, polish testing

Well finally got the car, booked the train down to Nottingham while in Spain on holiday lol, also left a £100 deposit via paypal, so was a bit of a gamble, but you can tell a clean car when you see it.

Nearly missed the train down lol that was fun, but got a Starbucks on the train so it made it up, was a great choice as it made the drive back much easier/better

The car itself is mint, needs a good clean and machine polish but that's something I always do,

It has everything, fsh, low miles, satnav, dual climate control, adaptive xenons, auto lights, auto wipers, auto dimming mirror, it really is high spec, we activated a few more features with vagcom when I got back, like the coming home lights, and the single button boot pop ready for the boot mod.

Drive wise the suspension tight. Clutch is nice, very good power delivery, bit take but pulls well in fifth gear etc, we got around 30mpg coming back, so not bad,  needs a remap though,

Got a jacking point missing but that's going to be posted on

Finally pics

Cupra k1 deep clean


Hey guy’s its new car time, and as always I was egar to get in there and get the car clean

Tbf to the previous owner it wasn’t terrible, you could tell it’s a genuine car.


So first things first,

The dirty pics, the usual stuff –

Mouldy bonnet insulation, leaves under the hood, crud in the nicks etc

So it was on with a very diluted autoglym cleaner and soft brush to get in all the nicks, followed by washing the car in autoglym tfr again diluted, wheels done with autoglym wheel cleaner then a soapy was off for the hell of it,

Car was then dried off and brought inside, I couldn’t use my trust ramp this time, as get this! Some one was actually using it for productive work!!! Not messing like me 

Masked up to hide the cracks and protect the rubbers, I also too this point prior to install my heko wind deflector. Sorry I don’t have any blue tape, im either not scene enough or too cheap ;)
