Cupra is a brand that isn’t very well known in Australia, so we wanted to get behind the wheel of the Leon to see if it was any good. Turns out they had all of them available, so Paul was able to test them back-to-back!

I have the Leon VzX. Love driving it. I also have had total strangers come and ask me questions about it. You definitely won’t get as much interest from people if you had a Golf. The pops and bangs are great to have. Can listen to it all day 😁

@@russodean2 The road noise (apart from the squeaks mentioned here, which I don't have at all) is coming from the 19inch tires. Didn't see what they are running here, but mine came with Eagle F1 asymmetric 5 two years back. I'll replace with Eagle F1 asymmetric 6 next year and then the noise level drops 2dB. A Pirelli PZ4 is a good alternative. As a daily driver, every ride is a blast!

Hey Paul. Great information and presented really well in the “range review” format. I have a Formentor VZx and absolutely love it…a real head turner and quite the beast when you unleash it. I’m really just holding for the Tavascan release and then we will have two Cupra cars in our garage.

I have the VZ1 in the UK, which is the same as the VZ. I opted for it as a fast practical car, i thought it was smoother and a more comfortable ride than the 300hp version, but it's still fast when I feel like having a blast. Love it so far

Driving the VZx for a few months in NZ. Love the performance, however the interior squeaks are a thing + it's quite thirsty even when driven in Comfort mode without being enthusiastic with the throttle. I would say 9.5 l/100 km with mixture of city and highway driving.

How have people who have bought a Cupra thought about the dealer network at present, is it convenient to get it serviced? In Queensland I believe there is only one dealer. Asking because the entire Cupra range is enticing however due to the sparse network it might be better going for an equivalent Golf or Skoda Octavia.

Hi again Paul, just want to add a left field idea. No one makes comment on sustainability in new cars. Is there a way you could add to your reviews what car makers are doing well environmentally in car building? For example, vegan based interior materials, recycled plastics, recycled rubber etc. Imagine if car paint could be infused with bacteria to produce oxygen and the same bacteria added to fuel to reduce CO2?? It’s time for our cars to be a servant of the environment not just a basic means of transport. Just a thought. 🤓

I'm totally on the fence with Hybrid as well. Most of the time you are either running in electric mode lugging around a petrol engine. Or your in petrol mode lugging around a battery & electric motor. So really it's either get a fully petrol or fully electric.

I disagree with your take on the plugin hybrid. I could really do with one. I travel 15kms each day during the week and 500kms of towing on the weekends. I could spend the week on battery and use combustion on the weekend.

Cupras just seem pretty cool, although I'm on the fence about the matte black thing. Sometimes I think it looks good but sometimes it just seems very try hard. So hmmmmm... I'd probably opt out but here it seems ok. Btw mate, give no carb a go for a bit. You joke about your weight but imo most of that is inflammation and water weight. And meat is yum.

Had the VZ3 (UK equivalent of the VZX 300hp variant). An awesome car, but after 18 months ownership I got fed up with the poor build quality (awful rattles and buzzing speakers) and the terrible traction in colder months - which equates to about 9 months of the year in the UK. Should be less of an issue in Aussie though

It's actually bigger than the Golf seen it has the extended wheel base (of the Octavia) and has much more leg room in the back, converting it to a very usable car to transport teenagers. Parts are from the current gen Golf or Audi A3, so don't see why you state it's 2nd hand. To me, it's equivalent to a Golf, a bit bigger and with some more character and a bit less expensive.
