Very Nice Mate. Are those wind-deflectors standard?

Cool beans! Needs coilovers to make it a reasonable height, this new breed of Seats (Toledo / Altea / Leon) sit quite high up compared to the older models :)

As standard I see the classic VAG ride height is in effect - a good couple of inches clearance all round!

Nope, i got them off ebay for £18, just because i thought it looked nice! lol.

Thanks for the comments! It has been described to me today as a Leon on pies! PMSL!

With regards to the ride hight, with it being a sport its already 15mm lower than the standard model. I have been thinking about swapping for a set of -30 springs like i was going to do with the Polo. or should i go lower than that?

Thanks,
Chris

I think the wind deflectors look good! yes as well, there were off ebay.
The fit was a bit strange and they can set off the anti pinch feature alot.

Car went for its first recall yesterday! eeeep!
Nothing major..... Just the flywheel..... :shock:
