That's good about the seats. Thanks to those who confirmed. It's good to hear they are low too, in my current f31 335d you can sit very low which I prefer.
I saw a dynamic grey and thought it looked a little blue for my liking so went with the ice silver. Should look like this...
The ST looks great in ice silver. I went for monsoon grey but wish I'd gone for the silverI saw a dynamic grey and thought it looked a little blue for my liking so went with the ice silver. Should look like this...
I've test driven a 280. Only had about 30 minutes in it, but just from that time I knew it was a great car. 290 black is a touch different so looking forward to having it for 2 years moving forward! Just wish I was getting mine soon but based on what I've read, it's likely to be end of November, if not December.
......Also, I still haven't seen one on the road. They're ultra rare, certainly around where I am from. I do see a lot of Golf R's (probably because of the amazing lease deals 2 years ago), so perhaps we'll see less Golf R's and many more Cupra's when all our lease cars get delivered!

I ordered my Golf R blind. Turned out well.
I had looked at the Cupra at a dealership before ordering but hadn't driven one. Figured it would be more of the same (just a 2wd Golf R) so ordered it blind as well. Since spent a bit of time in one and it pretty much is a as I expected. Few more scratchy plastics in the centre console than i would ideally want but at this price I'm not grumbling. I'm looking forward to playing with the bits this car has that my R doesn't. The main 2 being DSG and DCC. It'll also be interesting to see if Cupra mode is more aggressive than Race mode in the Golf. I also compared the Golf to an S3 and the dynamic mode in it didn't feel anywhere near as focussed as Race mode in the Golf.

Am I one of the only people who have ordered a Cupra 290 without test driving it first or have others ordered theirs blind too?
I'm not even sure if I've seen a Cupra 290 black on the roads or seen a dynamic grey Cupra in the metal.
I have not driven or even sat in one. I will be surprised if it's not half decent #leapoffaithI'm not even sure if I've seen a Cupra 290 black on the roads or seen a dynamic grey Cupra in the metal.
Was going down the route of a Golf R estate but the deal I got from Seat Peterborough is saving me £2400 over the 2 year so it was a now brainer to go for the Cupra Black. Gone for Dynamic Grey 5dr Manual... Just counting down the days . Due mid to late Novemeber.

Mine's also getting built this week. I was told 3 weeks from the build date by the dealer, so I'm hoping it'll arrive sometime week commencing the 10th Oct.
Looking forward to seeing it as I still haven't seen a dynamic grey one out on the road!
When did you order yours? Looking forward to seeing it as I still haven't seen a dynamic grey one out on the road!
I ordered mine 2 weeks ago through central and am yet to hear about a build week....

Hi mate, I ordered mine about three weeks ago. Originally it was a black edition which would have come later but there was some cock up and they couldn't secure a black 3-door so the dealer offered me a standard 290 that was already in the build queue as I didn't want a 5 door.I ordered mine 2 weeks ago through central and am yet to hear about a build week....
Have central confirmed you've definitely got one?

Ah right, not a bad result in the end then. Central said about 10-12 weeks from order so I reckon I'm looking at end of Nov early Dec delivery.Have central confirmed you've definitely got one?
I assume so, they have taken the admin fee and said they would update in due course. I bloody hope I have a slot! I would be gutted if I don't!
