I’ve got a 290 Mag grey on order, delivery expected August. Will need to check insurance though given some comments in this thread.

How close are people getting to claimed mpg when driving steady (yes,I know,shouldn’t have bought a Cupra if I wanted efficiency!) unfortunately I won’t be ‘on its all the time!

I usually drive it like I stole it (between 17-21mpg) have done with both of them. However, when I use it for business miles I drive it relatively sensibly.

Just done 700 miles home-glasgow-home and averaged 38mpg, making progress but not driving like a loon. I think with slightly less progress being made you could crack 40mpg in it relatively easily.

Good to know. I have watched some videos on line and they suggest that 40+mpg is achievable when driven very carefully.

40? Pah!

Hot day, m25, cruise on, bit of traffic, steady 50 ish...

If I get anywhere near that I will be chuffed!

Haha, I would be too! Never seen above 40 yet but have seen this on many occasions

If anyone is looking for one of these I have one halfway through a 2 year lease that I want to assign - it's not getting used so has 12k miles available over 13 months with lease plan at £239 a month. It's a 19 plate 290 lux model in blue.

Mr Moley, send me a message. I might be interested.

Less than 3000 miles in and my Cupra 290 that I picked up through ZenAuto has already developed a really annoying rattle from the driver's side door/window. Has anyone had any success getting rid of rattles? I imagine dealers are pretty hopeless at this and have zero interest in helping out?
