SEAT Leon Hatchback (2005 - 2012) 1.6 TDI CR Ecomotive SE Copa 5d (2011/61) Owner Review

What does this car say about you?

I want to have fun driving but still have money left for other things.

What do your friends / family / neighbours think of the car?

They think its very well equipped and pretty sporty.

Would you buy this car again and why?

Yes absolutely. Hands down it is one of the best cars I have owned. It's got everything you need to enjoy driving with a very frugal engine.

What are you likely to buy next?

It will be another Seat or something else from the Volkswagen Audi Group.

Type of dealer you bought from?

Franchised

Did you buy this car new?

No

What price did you pay?

£8,000

When did you buy the car?

August 2013

Did you get a good deal and why?

Yes the deal was good, I traded in two previous vehicles (Grand Scenic and Ibiza) and got the deal I wanted for the price I wanted.

Is there any special reason why you bought this car?

What was the dealer like?

Excellent, have used the dealer many times now and always been very satisfied with the cars and deals I have got.

What's it like to drive?

It has very tall gears so I tend to only use 3rd around town and it doesnt really hurt the mpg. Over-taking is quick as the engine is lively and responsive. The only criticism I have is the gear change indicator is a bit premature wanting to change up all the time and labors the engine slightly.

What's it like to park?

As easy as any other car. Excellent view all around the vehicle with very minimal blind spots.

Have you had any problems with the car?

Nothing yet.

What's most practical about your car?

I get on average between 53 and 60 MPG.

Favourite gadget, option or accessory?

Its got to be the Bluetooth hands free stereo, easy to use, pair and excellent sound quality (better than the one in the grand scenic).
