Well, the wait is finally over, and this morning I picked up my new baby, a red Seat Leon FR:

She's got the 200 hp 2.0L TFSI engine and the 6 speed manual. Only 100 kms on the clock so far (only 50 of which are mine), so I haven't had much time to spend with her, but already I'm in love!

Oh, MUCH better. Weren't you driving your parents minivan?

 

[Polly]

She.. her..

Stop it!


Nice car, always had a soft spot for the Le?n.

Congrats!!!

I'm not a big fan of the Leon as almost 98% of the Spanish population seems to own one (or the Ibiza). But it is always nice to see one outside its country!!

Enjoy your new ride and drive carefully!

Sexy Seat there, FR's are great wee cars. Got any interior pics?

 

[nouseferaname90]

Congrats indeed. any plans for it (remapping ecu...), or stock?

 

[Buba]

Nice engine and color! See my thread about my new car
Does it come with DSG?

 

[Ianspeed]

LOVE. IT.

Nice!!! Never seen a Seat in person and yours looks like a real hoot to drive from the pics.

It is. And for how firm all the reviews I've read said it was, I think the ride is nice and smooth.

Oh, MUCH better. Weren't you driving your parents minivan?

Yes, and my dad's xA. This is quite an improvement!

Not yet, but I will when I get a chance.

I'm still breaking her in, man! :lol: From what I hear, though, a good starting mod is an ecu remap + exhaust upgrade. I'll probably look into that, since the stock engine is silent, and, while I'm opposed to fart cans, I at least want to be able to hear it.

Nice engine and color! See my thread about my new car
Does it come with DSG?

Nope, 6 speed manual with a proper clutch.

Stop it!

Hehe, sorry. SheIt's my first car! Also, I've never realized what an effect a pretty car can have on you: there have been times when I've just stood there staring at it.
