Late 00s was the last great era for hot hatches for me. Focus St, Leon Cupra, Mk5 Gti, Civic type R, Astra VXR were all quality cars with something different to the other. The different brands all had unique styles, and they mostly focused on driver feel over pure bhp. When I look around now, they're all starting to look the same, and the cars go fast but you can't feel the connection to the road. Loving that Cupra!
I had a mk2 also 310hp standard clutch slipped but was on 100k miles replaced with new Oem clutch/flywheel 0 issues with slip in a not so easy 20kmiles them clutches if in good condition or new can hold good power unlike my new 2016 Ibiza cupra 1.8tsi 👎
As long as it's looked after those engines take a hammering no bother! Great sound when flooring it, looks stunning, and I think a bargain for the money!! 👌🏻 (I may be a slight biased Cupra R owner though!😎😂)
My edition 30 is the perfect car. 380bhp and 420ftlbs, few bolt ons. Crazy there hasn't been another gti with such out of the box performance. I have mine clubsport s spec with s3 alloy subframe, lighter ttrs brakes, hubs, lightweight alloys etcm it weights 1270kg and surprises majority of cars. I've even raced an amg gt worth 85k lol
You're past the stage of building up your channel and website... you are building a community now... feel like buying something myself just so i can participate 👍🏻👍🏻
Been looking at these cupras myself last couple weeks as there such good value for money! Nice little motor, will be good to get it on planet of dreams!👌
Love the video and the car, I've had my cupra for just over 2 years mines stage 2 and the driving potential on them are unreal, they genuinely are incredible cars
I wanted to buy a mk5 gti & bought a FR 2.0 TFSI DSG. Love everything about it & not many about that are like that. Will definately send it in for a health check etc & maybe remap stage 1 next year.
These vids always appear in my feed w/out subscribing but about time I did. Good work and you deserve the rewards for effort and time you've dedicated to the channel. 👍
i have been subscribed to your channel ever since you were at the early 5k subs and I have entered all your draws with the monthly membership[, I would simp for the BMW, my dream if I win it as I'm stuck with a 320d atm....
I’ve signed up to planet of dreams..! I did the last one but this one is so much better. I only did the free one so not really expecting to win….just doing my bit to support the cause.👍🏼👍🏼
Always distract myself when watching your videos - I live in Newton Longville so spend most of the time road spotting the local routes you take 😂. Looks a good buy that bud.
I had a Mk1 Leon Cupra R 225 from new back in 2003. When I sold it I went and looked at this Mk2 model and just couldn't get on with the looks - it was so totally different from the Mk1 it didn't work for me. Plus I really disliked the interior, mainly that big silver plastic centre dash that felt really cheap. It was a shame as the underpinnings were good and it was still a SEAT, just hated the looks :-( They recouped some of their form with the Mk3. I bought a Mondeo ST instead and that was the first of three Mondeos I had since.
Watch your videos a lot but only just this minute subscribed. Would love a cupra, though i own a 2012 leon FR 2.0tdi, stage 1 220bhp 466nm, nippy and fun to drive but best of all good on fuel. And no I'm.not selling it, I love my car ha
stage 1 either just over 300 or just less , will make a massive difference as my 310bhp mk2 cupra stage 1 i sh*t you not leaves stock mkr7 golfrs and s3's , hard to belive for 5k all i have is a induction kit!
I miss my 07 cupra was running 300 by rstuning get that thing mapped by Will she will do 300 easy with no mods really. Hopefully i can win this 1 to replace my old 1 😂
Calve any chance you read this comment ? Alfa lovers including me would love you do do a video on the Alfa 147 you have in stock still. any chance Calvin thinning you in advance
I think someone has set up a fake Instagram account under your name. I’ve added it as thought it was genuine and they are saying I’ve won and to send them a screenshot of my details. Just thought you should know. 👍
Be like Ross. Hit that subscribe button.
Been wanting one of these for a while hopefully I win lol Calvin you have a heart of gold

Stage 1 remap will see 300bhp to 310bhp stage 2 will see 350ish with some supporting mods. If clutch is in good condition it will handle 350bhp
My Mk2 is pushing out 326hp (stage 1) and thankfully the clutch is holding up OK....for now.
I had a mk2 also 310hp standard clutch slipped but was on 100k miles replaced with new Oem clutch/flywheel 0 issues with slip in a not so easy 20kmiles them clutches if in good condition or new can hold good power unlike my new 2016 Ibiza cupra 1.8tsi 👎
Can get as much as 390 stage 2+. Stock clutch will handle this power with zero issues providing its not too worn
Great cars Calvin, be good to see a 20-70 before and after a stage 1 map
As long as it's looked after those engines take a hammering no bother! Great sound when flooring it, looks stunning, and I think a bargain for the money!! 👌🏻 (I may be a slight biased Cupra R owner though!😎😂)
100% ive got a mk5 gti 156k brought it on 120k and never broke on me. Also running r tech stage 2+ 370bhp
@@Adjustlfy that's mega power 💪🏻 I'm just 327bhp on a stage 1. That Mk5 will catch a few challengers off guard I bet! 😂
@@Adjustlfy what does it need for stage 2?🤨🤨

The seat Leon’s like the light weight golf but cheap unlike every other lightweight version

That’s my old ITG induction kit on that car 👍
Yes Calvin love the video most genuine youtuber, I'd love to have this with my 2011 1.2 tsi Leon hahah.
Yes this is what i wanna see. Something in the realms of the average guy.
Hahahaha jothan and ross ...were they any good with there r's
Been looking at these cupras myself last couple weeks as there such good value for money! Nice little motor, will be good to get it on planet of dreams!👌
Decent honest lad
Lot of car for a tad over 4k......love it. Rear door though looks different shade so possibly seen paint at some point.
Been a subscriber for a long time and glad to see a Leon on the channel 😁 can't wait to see what you do with it 😍
Good amazing video thanks for all video u made for us all really enjoy watching it 🙂
Love the video and the car, I've had my cupra for just over 2 years mines stage 2 and the driving potential on them are unreal, they genuinely are incredible cars
Deffo Buying My First Car From You Calvin! 🤫🤝🏻
Ross appears to be a far better negotiator than you, Calvin. Zero fuel, no MOT and £600 more than the car is valued 😂😆
Anyone got any jobs going?
The back door at 13:00 different shade so have to take accident damage into the price
@@cephasmakuzva that’s just the lighting where he is filming outdoors, it’s not accident damage
@s1.quattro ok cheers but the car had no mot. Really. How did he drive it from leeds to binca in milton keynes.
@@cephasmakuzva illegally, unless it was on or before 10/12, when it expired.
Again quality content bud only downside the th mk2 Leon's is the road noise is horrible inside them. 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
I wanted to buy a mk5 gti & bought a FR 2.0 TFSI DSG. Love everything about it & not many about that are like that. Will definately send it in for a health check etc & maybe remap stage 1 next year.
