SEAT Reviews
New Cars

Good: Sliding side doors as standard, very spacious with a high quality interior, frugal and low CO2 TDI engines, sister car to the new Volkswagen Sharan but better value.
Bad: Not thrilling to look at, but then few MPVs are.

Good: Roomy cabin with a decent boot. Beautiful styling. Excellent crash test rating.
Bad: The ride quality isn't forgiving enough. Overall, a Ford C-Max does it better. Poor treatment of owners over ABS/ESP module failures.

Good: More versatible than your average hatch. Very roomy inside and a huge boot. Decent amount of kit. Excellent crash test rating.
Bad: Less versatile than your average compact MPV. Doesn't ride that well.

Good: 2.0 TDI surprisingly good to drive, very economical, exceptionally solid build, multitronic auto option from 2011.
Bad: Undistinguished looks, inside and out.

Good: Handsome station wagon of Exeo saloon, surprisingly good to drive and ride in. Looks better than saloon. Multitronic auto from 2011.
Bad: Possible problems to come with piezo injectors.

Good: Fine riding, handling and commodious small car, reasonably priced, engine range gradually improved. Facelifted with improved engine range from Spring 2012.
Bad: Slightly firm ride.

Good: Very nicely styled coupe-like three-door hatch, at its best in FR trim with 150PS twincharged chain cam 1.4 with DSG or 143PS 2.0 TDI CR.
Bad: 2.0 TDI CR is £1,500 more than 1.4 TSI with DSG.

Good: Small efficient engines with the option of a tax-free diesel, smart looks, useful load area, reasonable list prices and decent ride comfort.
Bad: Legroom in the back is still tight and not really suitable for adults, CO2 (and money) saving start/stop technology only available on certain models, rather than across the range.

Good: Stylish design, excellent road manners and a roomy, well-equipped cabin. An easy car to live with and enjoy. Superb value.
Bad: Acres of dull plastic across the dashboard. Poor treatment of owners over ABS/ESP issue.
Good: Strong performance, manages to put its power down very cleanly, understated looks, great handling, relatively economical, forgiving ride. Chain cam engine.
Bad: Doesn't look very different from the standard Cupra.

Good: SEAT version of Volkswagen Up, powered by low emission 1.0-litre engine. One version emits below 100g/km CO2. Easy and fun to drive. Good value for money.
Bad: Not as distinctively styled as the Up and only £150 cheaper.

Good: Toledo returns to a more conventional saloon shape, should have economical TDI and TSI engines.
Bad: Won't be in the UK until late 2012.
