Certainly very interesting and a lot more unique than the ED35.
Lots of special bits on it by the sounds of it but I wonder if the bucket seats will be optional.
Wonder if it'll be three door only too being as it's a Clubsport rather than an 'Edition'.
Hopefully that standard 18's will look a lot nicer than those 19's.
Things I particularly like - the interior for sure. Maybe a bit overkill but very very nice and very exclusive.
I like the return of the side stripe.
Things I don't really like - the front bumper looks a bit awkward in all the pics I;ve seen. Hopefully it'll look better in the flesh.
Shame they didn't use the oval tailpipes from the Cupra.
As wigit says, it'll hold its value well for sure with all those little features and will be quite an exclusive car.
The R has become far from exclusive (great car that it is). I had to pop down to a hire car company this afternoon and noticed the staff were taking a great interest in mine (thankfully it was clean). They thought at first it was one of theirs as they've just either ordered or about to take delivery of
21 R's according to the manager I was chatting to.
