My first INDEPTH (TT style) with the new LEON
 

In April, my Ibiza was in the garage for the annual check - I got a 2006 Seat Leon overnight for a testdrive. It was a 2.0 FSI 16V 150 PS (not bad, but they didn't had a Leon Radical at that time)


Time for my first Indepth à la TT :mrgreen:

Took the car out of the city and the first shooting was done around sunset. It was getting more and more dark for some night shots :D
I like the dashboard very much, the 0-mark at the bottom with vertical indicators is supercool 8) , and revs-gauge is in the center :P

The next morning, on the roof of a nearby parking garage, the shooting continued.

but one thing I didn't got right were these damn panning shot.... I never passed the camera in the right time --> exactly when the timer was finished :bah: :wink:



Before bringing the car back, I passed Schmohl for a surprising group shot ... but this is another story ... more to come soon


I hope you liked it, any suggestions are welcome!

I just LOVE that night shot with the train in the background!

"suprising group shot"? Tell us more.. !

a nice update stmoritzer!

that is a car i'll never see on the road here, and for how small it is, im sure 150 hp would feel pretty nice :)

some really nice pictures, and great detail shots!

night shots are a total PITA for black cars IMO; and that said, it looks pretty nice

thanks

I kinda like the new Leon, especially the sportier versions of course, but this one isn't bad and the color pretty nice!
I love the pics taken in the late afternoon: light is always special but my fav are the forest pics at sunset ;)

dark cars at night, you mean like this :fuck:

Nice indepth!

Look at his signature. ;)

BTW, I should have copyrighted that "indepth" and now I could ask you money for having used it :fuck:

^ :lol:

it's like STAN, a JW-insider word :wink:

Cool indepth stmoritzer, and i think its very very good :good:

The car is good looking, i like it very much, too bad that the paning didnt work. :roll:

Thanks for this nice indepth, something different than super sport cars, which TT always indepths :mrgreen: :prr:

Nice In depth and cool group shot!.

My favourite pic is the sunset one next to the tree:

Your pictures are nice, sharp and have good framing, well done!

I've tested a Leon about a month ago but haven't had time to edit my pics ...
The exterior looks pretty nice but the interior is so damn boring, especially the center console. What's your opinion on this car?

Nice work, we need a few more regular guys doing photoshoots/in depths/whatevers.

Its very rare to see a SEAT around here so its good to see it in pics, thanks. :D

nice shots dude!!

Whoa, that's a pretty nice looking car, and a great 'in-depth'! :D 8)

This speedo/tach shot is awesome dude!
http://img17.imagevenue.com/loc64/th_81510_Dsc09503.jpg

btw, is a 260km/h speedo needed on that car?! :shock:

And tell us more about this 'group shot' :!:

^ have a look at my signature :wink:

the specification list 210km/h as vmax for this FSI, the 2.0l TSFI has 221km/h vmax ....


The dashboard is very cool (see pics), but you're right the center concole can be called "boring", since they are made of one piece, in plastic style :hmm:. On the other side I like the simple, logic, non-fancy style SEAT usually has :D
