CUPRA TERRAMAR

Autumn is here and the (k)nights are getting darker - fire up the Batmobile!

- Darren Wilson

NEW Car Day always causes great excitement in the Wilson household.

Everyone is keen to take a tour, fiddle with the infotainment and offer an opinion.

These days, my grandchildren, Zack (five) and Hope (three), like to get involved, too. The dynamic duo immediately christened our Cupra 'The Batmobile'. Okay, there are more radically styled cars about than our Timanfaya Grey Terramar; but as the dark nights return, they've been captivated by the distinctive Cupra logo in its massive bat-like puddle lights on either side of the car. Once inside, the deep red wraparound interior lighting has spiked their imagination, and I'm with them.
