Prime-time BBC Radio One DJ Scott Mills has spoken of his delight at getting his hands on a highly sought-after version of the Seat Leon.
Those looking to buy a Seat Leon Cupra R face an average wait of three months, and Scott was full of praise when he got his hands on his new ride.
"I've owned quite a few big and powerful cars but the Leon is right up there with any of them. It's fantastic fun to drive and I just love it," he said.
As a radio DJ, a high-quality sound system is obviously important to Scott, and he praised the Leon Cupra's audio set-up as "amazing".
Owners can also sync up their iPhone with the stereo system, while the radio allows drivers to listen to channels from the USA as well as the UK.
The sporty hatchback balances impressive performance with decent fuel consumption statistics - going from 0 to 62 in just over six seconds, while being able to deliver nearly 35 mpg.
