In their own words

The Arona is a great looking car, which you can personalise with different paint options for free, which is a credit to SEAT, considering that most manufacturers charge for metallic colours. The cabin has too many hard plastics though but feels well screwed together. Since Week 2 of ownership, my Arona has been plagued with Infotainment problems, as it freezes and refused to work. Been in the garage four times in four months with the same issue, which cannot seem to be resolved. I've negotiated with SEAT to 'reject' the car and it is in the process of being returned. I'll not be buying another! I researched all the car magazines and websites before choosing this car, as it was given very good reviews. Mine however, has been very below par.
