Leon body kit for boy racers

The well-heeled boy racer can indulge his Seat Leon with a new body kit for the Spanish hatch.

The kit can be bought in three separate packs or as a whole for £2,500 and can be fitted by any Seat dealer. 

Taking its styling cues from Seat's touring car racer, it brings new front and rear bumpers, 18in alloy wheels and a centrally mounted oval exhaust.

Leon buyers will have to wait until later this year for a model that will have the trousers to match the mouth when the Cupra arrives with a 197bhp, 2.0-litre turbo engine.
