Recently bought a 04 leon cupra tdi, very pleased with it. Drove a petrol cupra and felt the diesel wasnt that much slower, considering 52mpg vs 30mpg, has all the same trim and kit as petrol models, and only going to be used on the road, not track.

How did you find the handling of the petrol compared to the diesel? Drove an Ibiza diesel last year and you could really feel that big lump of iron in the front on the bends.

Neither example handled well to me (both on budget tyres) both feel heavy and im used to rear wheel drive, not sure there was alot in it between the two.
