Do you want to buy a Mk1 ‘normal’ Cupra (20v 1.8T 180bhp)? 51 plate, 80K miles. Cambelt etc. done at 60k, lots of history including sorting a turbo leak which causes a mystery engine check light on all cars of this engine. 6 speed box, shocking patterned cloth interior.. what were they thinking…
2nd owner, bought from a friend who was (honestly!) a careful lady driver 😀

Selling mine soon to buy a a car I can get 2 kids in with more than a handkerchief 🙂 Car seats just eat space.
Fine for bikes, two in the boot seats down no trouble – but I’d throw in the roof rails for the right price anyway. I went to this from an Elise, and I think once you accept it isn’t also a go kart, it’s performance is up there with anything, if thats important to you.
I’ve only noticed water ingress if I park facing uphill in the rain, then you get a wet foot pulling away. Never been able to track it down.
The biggest issue has been coil packs going, but I’ve changed 3 now so shouldn’t be an issue! It is a bit thirsty, and high tax if the Co2 rates ever go through. But it’s a fun hot hatch, more poise than similar Golf GTi’s I’ve had on hire.
