SEAT Altea Hatchback 1.9 TDi Stylance 5d (2004/54) Owner Review
Want to know everything there is to know about this car?
-
Economy
Value
Can't complain on my model, Ex Demo with 7000 miles on the clock but fully specced up with air con, cruise control and parking aids, a lot of car for the money.
Costs
Can't comment as nothing has gone wrong and still under warranty. Fuel wise it returns 45 - 50 mpg so can't complain on that score.

Driving
Overall very good, suspension on the firm side but handles well.
Performance
Good, a little sluggish off the mark but good pick up in 3rd & 4th gears. Excellent cruising on the motorway.

Living with it
Reliability
No problems yet and hopefully there will not be many seen as it is specced up with VW/Audi parts.
Image
Quality, this is a cross between a hatchback and MPV, probably SEAT's version of the Golf Plus, beats the likes of C max, Picasso and Zaffira hands down for looks & style.
Comfort
Seats are firm but comfortable, loads of legroom in the back. Suspension firm but OK.
