Edition30 replacement - Leon FR184

(1/5) > >>

Gladiator:
Hi guys

Well after 4 very happy years I said goodbye to my cherished Edition30!

I needed to go for a diesel this time due to miles and seriously considered the Mk7 GTD, however after seeing and test driving the new Leon FR 184 and an amazing deal offerd by my local SEAT dealership I bit the bullet!!

Here she is after a clean today, Monsoon Grey with the upgraded LED lights and Tech Pack, 18" wheels, Sound upgrade which includes 9 speakers and subwoofer, comfort pack and sunroof......got to say i love it  :smiley:

Performance is great and pulls like a train, handling is a real delight and a good blend and you have the option to choose between normal, Eco or Sport mode, the latter providing the sound actuator through the speakers and actually sounds less like a diesel than then Edition30 engine  :laugh:

I'm sure it will perform better once a few more miles on the clock as all feels very tight and the best bit is I'm currently achieving 51mpg which should rise to mid 50's after a few thousand hopefully and possibly 60mpg on a long run   :happy2:

Here's some pics......

Really nice, the interior looks a fair bit nicer than the older Leons, great colour too.

Any mods planned  :evilgrin: or is it going to stay as is?

simonp:
Very nice. Have a Monsoon Leon on order myself. :happy2:

I doubt mine will get near 50 mpg, though!

akbarirfan:
Nice car!!

Pleasantly surprised when I saw the interior shot, looking good!!

Thanks mate, no performance mods planned but will be adding the bigger rear spoiler soon and possibly the side skirts and rear bumper with the twin pipes each side that's just been launched through SEAT :drool:
