Seat Leon Cupra K1 Limited Edition Styling Kit

As if the menacing Cupra�s look wasn�t enough, SEAT is now offering its UK customers an even scarier car to drive in, with the K1 Limited Edition Styling Kit. Purely a plastic surgery kit � the 2.0-litre turbo still kicks out 240 bhp/ 179kW. SEAT has gone a step further by slightly dropping the price of a standard Cupra by some 200 quid, helping to make good headway for the inclusion of K1 for future purchases.


Where the major changes are made is just about the only area allowed for general public consumption, which is the exterior. There�s more than just a passing resemblance to the Sport BTCC car, SEAT�s race-winning maverick, as BTCC forms the basic inspiration for the look.

Colours offered are Inferi Black, Emocion Red, Luna Grey and Candy white. Work has been done on both bumpers, side skirts and rear spoiler. Exhaust system has borrowed from big brothers Porsche and Audi by going central and oval for shape respectively. Wheels will be 18-inch alloys which cost �205 RRP and come in either black or white.




Press Release

Fresh for the imminent �08� plate change SEAT is giving its most potent road-going model � the muscular Leon Cupra � the option of an even more sporty look courtesy of a dramatic limited edition styling kit version.

The impressive additions to the Leon�s already lithe lines give the 240 PS, turbocharged 2.0-litre Cupra even more of the look of the race-winning SEAT Sport BTCC car, which is set to compete for top honours again this year.

Boasting a bespoke K� boot badge, the limited edition car�s comprehensive styling additions include extensively re-worked front and rear bumpers, smart side skirts, a more pronounced tailgate spoiler and unique chrome-tipped, centrally-mounted, oval exhaust.

The car�s enhancements come in a range of eye-catching colours: Inferi Black, Emocion Red, Luna Grey and Candy White, and it is available to order now through the SEAT UK dealer network.

Great value at just �1,000 RRP over the standard Cupra, the K� additions arrive at the same time as a change to the Leon range-topper�s equipment manifest. Powerful Bi-xenon headlights, complete with AFS dynamic bend lighting that follows the turn of the steering wheel to help ensure the beam is always pointing precisely where the car�s headed, are now a �870 option.

At the same time new, optional, 18� Orion alloy wheels in black or white are made available at �205 RRP.

The best news for Cupra fans, though, is that the standard car�s price has been trimmed, from �19,695 RRP to �19,495 RRP, to make the 153 mph flier even easier on the pocket. The body kitted K� therefore costs �20,495 RRP.

SEAT UK�s Head of Marketing, Steve Robertson, said of the Cupra changes: �The K� styling kit gives the car even more road presence, and clearly recalls the look of our super-quick BTCC competitor.

�Together with the optional black or white Orion alloy wheels, it ensures the Cupra has an outstanding look to match its outstanding performance.
