    Does it have DCC, Dynamic Chassis Control, to put the suspension in Comfort?
    Does it have Mild Hybrid? At 25 mpg, I guess not.

    VAG really need to sort that automatic emergency breaking issue. It is not just alarming but, dangerous. Speaking from experience, you don’t even have to be driving at speed for it to slam the brakes on. Unexpected brake-checking seems to be begging for a rear collision. If it’s an EU requirement, then it is further proof meddling health and safety nerds need a decidedly unsafe slap.

    It must tell you something that more and more UK police forces are getting Cupra’s… I love the Leon estate and had a base model Cupra for a day recently and I loved it!!

    OK Pete now try a VZ 2 or 3 with a stage 1 ecu upgrade and see if the extra expense is still worth it.

      It’s completely different from the VZ3 which was really good but is much softer. Never mapped or tuned the VZ3 but would have need some serious suspension upgrades to even handle the way the VZ5 does.

    Pistonheads Forum loved it 🤣 [The reviewers also suffered that ghost braking from the systems]
    For me – it’s too much to spend, If I had to have a performance SUV under £70k then I’d rather have a Alpine A390, but even this is a heart over head purchase.

    £67k price and they cant even put in a decent display screen , just one bought from a discount warehouse. The car deserves a proper dashboard with integrated displays and controls.
    Also for such a cost the seats should be perfect, not just acceptable.

    I have been a fan of Cupra’s ever since seeing a luminous green Leon Cupra way back before the turn of the century. It is kind of why I bought an Ibiza around that time sadly not a Cupra but it was a way of dumping inheritance cash I didn’t want included in my divorce agreement. Sadly I never did revisit the brand again but have recently acquired another Fiesta ST 180 in the best colour Red as a run around whilst my son has my Mercedes for the winter when his Mk1 MX5 is not so practical with the rag top. I am looking forward to some epic drives. I kind of wished I had run it to London and back last weekend.

    Prices of good RSQ3s are crazy, they’re holding values really well……..I wish I’d kept my last one.

    £67k 😮 . Nearly new M3 , Audi Q7 ( new) , Range Rover sport cheaper on the monthly’s . Pricing has gone bonkers .

    A very nice car, but the price… As the Formentor range starts at £35k, 67k is a mighty mark up for whats been added to this model. Limiting it to 250 in the UK market makes me think VAG are trying to justify the ‘profit’ by creating an ‘exculsivity’. But has Cupra got the brand allure..?

    Congrats on hitting 300k subs. Well deserved.
