Weve got one, but dont know where it is ! Theyve been polished today, can see it being a twice daily affair to keep them clean

lovely car, ive always had a soft spot for these. it would seem that most of us with GT's over on the punto forum tend to switch to one of the cupra range

Very nice, i like that a lot

This Leon makes so much more sense for you and your situation than the Ibiza did, the screens in the headrests should keep the kids quiet.
