I recently bought a new car and wanted a third-party health check for peace of mind. The team were friendly, helpful and got me booked in quickly - even though my new car is an EV, which my previous garage didn't handle. They explained everything clearly and made the whole process easy. Great service all around.

A warm welcome as usual when collecting my car after a full service. They kept us updated by phone about tyre wear and confirmed the MOT had passed. I have used Stedmans for four years and intend to continue. They even do a pick-up service, so helpful when you are in your 80s. A garage I can trust to speak plainly about any problem and what it will cost to put right.

About Cupra
Cupra, a name synonymous with high-performance and innovation, has carved out a unique niche in the automobile industry. Originating as the performance division of the Spanish car manufacturer SEAT, Cupra has evolved into an independent brand that continues to push the boundaries of automotive design and technology.
The history of Cupra is deeply rooted in racing. The name 'Cupra' itself is derived from 'Cup Racing', a testament to the brand's motorsport heritage. The moniker was first used for the Seat Ibiza GTI 16V road car in 1996, celebrating the victory of its racing counterpart in the 2-litre support series of the World Rally Championship. This marked the beginning of Cupra's journey from a one-off model to a full-fledged line of performance cars.
In 2018, SEAT officially replaced its SEAT Sport division with Cupra Racing, marking the birth of Cupra as an independent high-performance brand. This move was a significant milestone in the development of Spanish society and the global automotive industry.
Cupra's milestones as a car manufacturer are characterised by innovative design and technological advancements. Each model launch has added a new dimension to the brand's character. Notable models include the CUPRA Ateca, a unique model in its segment; the CUPRA Leon, its first electrified model featuring a plug-in hybrid electric engine; and the CUPRA Formentor, the first model designed exclusively under the Cupra brand.
The brand's achievements in the automobile industry are impressive. In 2021 and 2022, Cupra won the FIA ETCR - eTouring Car World Cup before the series was discontinued in 2023. Currently, Cupra, in partnership with Abt Sportsline, competes in the electric motorsport championships Extreme E and Formula E.
Cupra's commitment to growth and innovation is evident in its future plans. By 2025, Cupra aims to introduce three new electrified models - CUPRA Terramar, CUPRA Tavascan, and CUPRA UrbanRebel - while also renewing its current product line-up. In the first half of 2023, the brand delivered 107,300 cars, marking a 56.9% increase from the same period in 2022 and recording the best H1 result in its history.
Cupra's journey from a badge on a SEAT car to an independent high-performance brand is a testament to its commitment to innovation, performance, and design. As it continues to push the boundaries of automotive technology, Cupra is set to leave an indelible mark on the automotive industry.
