Title: Noob from down south
Post by: CupraNigel on November 29, 2011, 09:54:38 am

Thought I would pop over here and say hello  :happy2:

As you will tell from my username I am Nigel and I drive a Mk2 Cupra which is at the moment only has a Bluefin fitted. I am planning to do a few track days next year so I will be improving to a stage two at least. I am also hoping to spend quite a bit of time getting the suspension sorted so that the car will go around the corners properly.

Hello....

Yes indeed it was a short romance, but I did enjoy the time with the Leon. I have replaced it with a nice 2007 STI spec D, quite a rare beast and only 12k miles.
