    Seat Leon 16 further down is me. 2 years on and the car has been good although i dont know what the future holds. Only problem to date was one of the coils going faulty. Otherwise been a dream to drive for the last 2 years. I get over 450 miles out of a full tank by using Shell VPower Unleaded! I us ...

    I've always had second hand cars but find myself constantly going to the garage to get them fixed, so 2 years ago I decided to buy a new car. After a lot of searching I chose the SEAT Leon. This was the BIGGEST mistake of my life. If it wasn't under warranty I would be in so much debt! I've had nume ...

    I loved the car when I first bought it, it was a perfect family car with plenty of space in boot for pushchairs. That was until the electrics decided to go the speedo gave up the ghost so I have to guess what speed I am doing. The fuel gauge is even worse it beeps at every corner you turn even when ...

    I have a 2002 Seat Leon model and have suffered the same leak. My mechanic had no idea where it came from so we replaced the rubber seals both front and back and it still leaked. Took it to a Seat garage and they were not at all surprised to hear about the probelm and replaced the internal window se ...

    Great car just should have got rid of it last year. Unfortunately now in year 6 (only 25K miles) and have had to replace the front and rear brake disks, full exhaust and now had the second ignition coil go in 2 months.

    Potential to be a terrific car (faults aside)I can see why people buy Golfs, as I bought this because I couldn't afford a similar spec/age Golf. If I could do away with the faults I'd go for a TDi.

    Only had the car a short while but seems like such a good buy since its a Golf in disguise. This is the first time I go for a non-japanese car. I always used to stick to reliable and robust toyota/honda cars but the price was just too irresistible. So far seems to have been a good risk.

    Best compromise of comfortable and sporty ride, reassured and meaty handling, comfortable driving position and seats-rear seats are especially cossetting (reach & rake steering column), sporty feel gearbox, decent 1.6 powerplant with subtle sporting note and fairly good economy of around 40m.p.g- (m ...

    The Seat Leon 1.6 S is value for money but had a new fuel pump after 1,000 miles, a new gearbox after 9,900 miles, and had door leak. All replaced under warranty. Can you believe that a brand new car can have so many faults? I wouldn't buy any VW group car.
