Any tuning is going to massively increase his insurance premium, or invalidate it he doesn't tell them.

mahoosive tailpipe,huge wheels with the cheapest nastiest tyres,half a tonne of speakers,bright red shoulder pads ripspeed stickers is what the 17 yearolds round here opt for.

thats a cool 2 door beginner car... whats wrong with me!

What engine does it have?

a remap would be my first generic bit of advice. They're virtually undetectable to an insurance company if he forgot to inform them he had it done.

Get him onto SeatCupra.net they know everything about them there! Basically depends on which engine he has? The 1.4 sport is quite rare now i think but the most worth while one getting, stick on a set of coilovers or a decent sus kit from H+R, ARB's from teh Lupo GTi, Brakes from from the GTi, Nice induction kit, (Awesome GTi do a good one) Dont go above 14" on the wheelz, maybe a Lupo GTi spoiler for kicks! The list is endless, have quite alot of experience with the brand drop me a U2U if you want!

I'll keep an eye out for a young driver who uses his racing experience on the road. He'll traditionally be parked, on his roof, on the country lanes around Storeton / Hooton Or if I'm really lucky he'll write off my car like someone did in Heswall, when he ragged out of a junction without looking
