Very nice Cupra!  :happy2:

Can't wait to see the update!

BTW: I've just bought the S3 rear brakes for mine, did they make a difference on track? I'm a bit concern about the added weight.

Thanks mate, much appreciated! :star:

The S3 rears are a nice upgrade, I initially found they slowed my lap times on track as they changed the way the car handled in the corners under hard braking. With the smaller Cupra rears the back end would "break away" more easily under braking into a corner and I found this to be the way I liked the car to handle. Once the 310's were on these removed the loose rear end under big braking so I had to change my driving style to suit. Now I'm used to it (and I've had the handling tweaked to suit) I'm totally happy with how it handles!
:driver: :laugh:

You really shouldn't notice any difference in the weight as it's very minimal! :innocent:

This one is especially Marmite due to the ASBO bodykit......loads of people hate them but it takes all sorts I suppose! :happy2:

Yeah, this old girl does get to strut her stuff out on track fairly regularly thankfully! :driver:
