You can get the sport throttle without changing any settings in the screen by just pulling the gear selector down from d, it will change to s whilst leaving all the other settings.
I have been offered a great deal on a brand new abt cupra formentor as I guess the new facelift model out now...but I wish they'd painted the wheel arch panels and skirts in black like the original abt design pics. I know others will disagree and each to their own but I am still considering it. Thank you for a great review.
Just for reference it’s not A B T….it’s actually a surname Abt (Basically Abbott in German). Daniel Abt German racing driver…his father is the principal at Abt sportsline
Would have thought🤔 for the £60k price🤨 The engine ECU would have been internally mapped along with the DSG instead of the cheap piggy back boy racer box option.
Yes Tim, it looks kinda cool…bit like a civic at the rear end! … but the Audi Q3 and VW T Roc look better by design. Just an opinion. You’re the boss. We just watch, sweep up and make the tea.
"When john gives you head nod on the motorway" LOLLL ! Great video mate, looking to get the VZ3 this year !
😄 thanks for watching! My favourite car!

@@garyvowles23 thanks for watching mate! Yes that’s a little pain..maybe a cheeky spray job or wrap even in gloss black..fully reversible then?
Did you end up getting the abt? And I also agree! The wheel arch panels should be black. Surprised no one really mentions that
Outwith the Urus, this is the best looking VAG (hehe) have to offer in the compact suv. It’s essentially a budget Urus.
I’ll definitely agree with you there 👍
Great video as usually Tim!
Thanks dude, hope you’re good!
@@TimWilliamsHD all good at my end. Thanks.
Great video bro 👍 subbed
Thanks for watching bro. See you in the next one 👍
Rsq3 is my favourite
I kept thinking don’t forget your camera bro 😂
😄 nearly did bro, wouldn’t have been very happy
Is the ABT pack only available for Formentor?
Yes mate, unfortunately 🥲

CUPRA Formentor VZ5 limited with the 5cyl 2.5l Audi engine is better 😉
2 different cars 😄
Vz5 not released in the UK 😫

BMW X3 M40i can't beat that B58 6 cylinder I'm not a fan of 4 cylinder highly tuned engines.
tuned by the best ABT only 60hp + “ highly tuned engines “ 🤣
I’ve had an M135i and M140i. Went to AMG A45. It. Went better, sounded better and you didn’t need fuel it every other day.
Man like john😂😂
John is a g 😆
Amazing!
Thanks!
My cupra 290 is mapped to 375 bhp and 550 nm the car is quicker than it sound
Yes mate, proper rapid things!

That infotainment is annoying.. Whilst driving and fingering is not a good combo
Cool car, but very expensive. In a world of EVs this car ain’t worth it.
Could never choose an EV over a ICE as a all round car
Great looking car, too bad it has a DSG and an engine that eats 0.5L of oil every 1000km
That's not true kid lol
