On the road
Driving
I tried competion - Civic R, Corolla 1.8T, Golf GTi, but Leon much better
Performance
Sometimes seems a bit down on power, but goes better on light throttle openings. Handling great until really thrashed on back roads, then can get loose, but what wouldn't?

Car Services in Forfar are superb - wouldn't go anywhere else. When my son got fined for using fog lights inappropriately (police) Seat refunded fine as the switch was faulty - can't say more than that.
