Fantastic car to drive
Owned from new and never fails to put a smile on my face, even after 6 years of ownership.
It has suffered a couple of faults, minor oil leak from DSG gearbox seal and 360° camera alignment issue, both were addressed by Cupra free of charge.
The car is without question, my favorite to date and cannot find one I am willing to exchange it for, that is the reason for keeping so long and for the power, it is surprisingly good on fuel.
Thankfully my one still falls into the £190 road tax band.
