after giving preference to traditional sredneevropeЯko1. automobile kitchen, we yet not rasprobovali the exotic kitchen of Spain.

A indeed exists in the pikadorskom menu something like the sauce, which can be added to any dish, why it will acquire not with which the not comparable taste. Is called Cupra. To those, who is interested in racing automobiles, this name twice to repeat it is not necessary. It almost the same known as Evolution in Mitsubishi or STI in Subaru. On calculation gor4cix of Spaniards. from Seat there are victories in world ralli, podiumy in the stages of world turinga (WTCC), so that from the civil versions, which bear designation Cupra, it is possible to expect much.

Automobile, with which today will deal the discussion, is unique doubly. The second similar in Russia not to find. But the owner of rare auto-? known kol'tsevik, the master of sport Boris shul'meyster.

Rhythm of urban motion is incomparable with the rate of annular races and requirement for the road automobile others. However, for the person, who prefers the dynamic style of driving, on top of that and with the experience of piloting, presny1. automobile into the burden. But to select the machine, oriented to the asphalt and not irritating by teeth crushing shaking, dip in the zone of low engine revolutions, on top of that and exclusive, occurs, not such it is already simple. And to nevertheless present owner Seat Leon 2,8 v6 Cupra it transported. It found precisely similar.

Cupra it is equipped with the engine, related to motor Volkswagen VR6. Spaniards they removed from it 204 hp not too and much, but for the atmospheric motor good. Furthermore, the solid torque. 270 N.m with 3200 r/min. Certainly, heavy six-cylinder motor will unavoidably become the reason for insufficient povorachivayemosti of front-wheel-drive auto-. But specialists, who worked with the tuning by chassis, tried to the glory. Seat little is similar to the German relatives Of audi A3 and Volkswagen Golf, who are inclined to the removal of front axle. Would seem, in the suspension entire the same: counter McPherson from the front, mnogorycajka. from behind? There is no AN, entire matter in the seasoning! And in this case sharpness does not smash the soft taste of the basic dish: khetchbeka Leon to the surprise is comfortable for gor4cego..

Salon of machine does not appear spartanskim. Here high-quality plastic, climate- control and the mass of pleasant trifles like the micro-elevator in the knobs above the doors. But seat and completely staggering: the leather ladles Recaro with the inserts, decorated with logotypes Cupra. Rear sofa. and not sofa completely! It is formed the hearth of two adult passengers. But in the middle child will be placed. As we see, and it here for engineers was possible to find a successful compromise between the sport and the practicalness. But indeed our Leon can brag even and by complete drive! True, in the usual regimes entire thrust occurs to the front wheels. But rear axle is connected with the least slippage, where it is moved by 50% of torque. Is here established clutch Haldex. Experienced rallisty, you do not get crooked, but otvet'te, so whether is necessary a constant complete drive on the dry asphalt, on top of that, also, in the city? Moreover Seat did leave in the first places according to the fuel consumption? on the average it expends 15 l on 100 km of way. This with the almost three-liter engine!

About the engine. it is in more detail. You get accustomed rapidly to good, and soon after the purchase of machine Boris began not to be sufficient the power of series motor. The installation of mechanical supercharger helped. and now Cupra 260- strong. Compressor acts from the unmarried revolutions and to the the very verxa., so that motor still and added tyagovitosti. And voice changed, the characteristic whistle of drive belt and pulleys appeared. But when this party enters the soft baritone of exhaust system, soul sings!

Implantation of supercharger passed without the excesses, the thanks to experienced masters from Kesselman Motorsport. Compressor, as still odnin the element of gas-distributing mechanism, arose to the right of the the compact westerki.. Here only inlet pipe now goes around radiator from below on entire perimeter, and air duct was placed in by right the lower angle of bumper. For this it was necessary to endow by the regular protivotumankami..

Greater than there were any finishings whatever not. Actually, it does be worthwhile to disrupt the balance, achieved by specialists SEAT? Or to disrupt the harmonious appearance of compact khetchbeka by kichevymi anti-wings or by samolepnymi bumpers?.. Cupra is deprived of this environment, but invariably is focused on itself attention by bright color, by the firm elements of exterior and? by uniqueness. Even owners of those few Seat Leon that they are similar to our, do not know the taste of this Spanish delicacy.

[ to the screw die ] Boris shul'meyster: @3to my automobile. Specifically, that machine, which me arranges. Cupra was pleased by the powerful and tyagovitym engine, the outstanding balance between the comfort and the controllability and the complete drive. It, by the way, repeatedly did rescue me in winter? now and it does not be desirable to think about the mono-drive. Even with the small opening it is possible without ceremony to be moved on the snow-covered courts. The only time, when rounds on the virgin soil were finished by trouble, was during the motion the backward motion: the snow crowded under the fairing about the motor section, and it simply detached.

There is the nuance, connected with the connected rear axle. On the slippery coating in order to pass turning maximally effectively, it is necessary before the entrance to tear away by gas peredok. in the slippage? then in turning Cupra it rows by all four. There is a stabilization system, but 4 to it has already been adapted, good brakes precisely internal wheel and helps to fill automobile into the turning.

Khetchbek is suitable for service to family, simultaneously providing enormous pleasure from the driving. Still more pleasant it began to govern it after the installation of compressor. Engine became more elastic, but most important, addition is most perceived in the highest transfers: now acceleration is noticeably more intensive at the high speed. For the pleasure it was necessary to pay by the increased fuel consumption: about 17-18 liters to hundred.

With the maintenance of problems a little, service works are conducted in the official dealer Volkswagen. Spark plugs and ignition coil? those quillworts themselves, which under our conditions it is necessary to change very frequently.

A still? automobile grows old. Alas, with this anything not to do, but replacement to it thus far to not find. Too tightly here interlaced controllability, comfort, practicalness, dynamics. And rarity. Based on materials of periodical Za by control.
