Seat Leon Cupra R or VW Scirocco R

Seats aren’t regarded as the coolest cars out there, but this new SEAT Leon Cupra R pretty damn cool. It comes with turbocharged 2.0-litre petrol engine, which pushes out 261bhp! The Seat Leon Cupra S can zoom up to a top speed of 155 mph, which is pretty amazing.


It comes standard with 19inch double spoke Potenza alloy wheels and proper bucket seats, like racing cars have. It’s been styled out to look real sleek and sporty. It's rear styling reminds me of the VW Golf R32, with the twin exhausts in the middle.

Seat Leon London and UK dealerships will start taking orders for the Seat Leon Cupra R on April the 1st 2010.

I say I like the Seat Leon Cupra R, but at the price of £25,205 I could go buy a VW Scirocco R for a little bit more, which seems alright as I think the Scirocco looks better. Underneath I reckon they are the same car, it’s just the Scirocco is better dressed. Volkswagen Scirocco gives out more power that the Leon Cupra R, by only by 2 more bhp’s and has its top speed restricted to 155mph, which is exactly the same as the Leon.

Brown is the new Black

The last couple of years saw a rise in cars being released in white. It’s a cool colour but it’s starting to get boring. So it’s good news to see that 2010 seems to be bringing new hues into the market; the most popular seems to be shades of Brown. As always fashion trends always go full circle, so seeing brown cars reminds me of my dad’s car back when I was just 8 years old, he use to drive a chocolate brown Ford Escort. As I got older I remember joy riding around in a brown Mini Metro, luckily I never got caught. The first brown car I saw was the Audi R8 Spyder, which looked amazing. As more cars got released with the new 10 registration plate it seems it’s the new trend and Brown has become the new black. My favourite new car in brown is the Porsche 997 Turbo Cabriolet, followed closely by the Audi R8 Spyder. I’ve even seen an Audi A3 in a really dark brown colour which I loved. The most affordable brown car I would go for would be the Citroen DS3; I should p...

Not all Online Sign Language Courses are equal

On my mission to learn Sign Language in 2021, I did what most people would do and went to Google and searched “learn sign language”. A few places popped up and I realised as I’m the UK, I needed to be a little bit more specific, as in the UK it’s called British Sign Language or BSL. So, I went on to search “Learn British Sign Language online”. I’m no stranger to Google search engine results being a mixture of paid ad listing and listings that naturally pop up on the first page due to their ranking by Google. I wanted a good deal, so I clicked on some of the paid ads which pop up right at the top and here’s where my confusions began. I found website that offered BSL courses which seemed like a bargain, I could apparently sign up online and learn BSL Level 1 and BSL Level 2 and get certified at an 89% discounted price of just £14.00 – This was “a deal not to miss” I thought. But my gut was saying “you get what you pay for”. So, I investigated further to find out what I’m getti...

Return of the DS

I never realised that the Citroen I use to call upside down boat was called the Citroen DS, I also didn’t realise how popular the car was in its time. So recently when I saw the launch of Citroens new DS models I understood why this new car was such a funky design, it had to live up to its ancestors. The old Citroen DS’s design was pretty bold and it took me a long time to accept how unique and cool this car actually is. For the time it was built it was an extremely luxury vehicle and technology wise it was up there with its innovative hydro pneumatic self-levelling suspension. The design was also a little outrageous, but these were the reasons for making this car such an icon. The new Citroen DS3 which I had a chance to check out at Citroen Newcastle DS3 showroom. I was kind of put off by its design, I thought it looked a little over the top. But now that I’ve seen how much this car can be customised, I’m actually impressed by its uniqueness and learning abou...
