In their own words

Slightly choppy ride on the 19 inch wheels around town but a great handler. Adaptive cruise and traffic assist makes for a relaxing long distance cruiser, trips include Brugge and Zurich. A very relaxing dependable car, easy to park, great all round vision, love the glass cockpit. Built in sat nav quite slow and so I normally use Apple CarPlay. The foot operated boot took a while to get used to but is great when loading up with shopping. Rear seats can be folded at the push of a button in the boot but sadly don’t create a flat surface. Infotainment occasionally has a wobble and has to be rebooted. Overall great car despite feeling a bit flimsier compared to my previous Mercedes C220. Just booked it in for it’s first service.

How reliable do you find the car?

The only problem was when the keyless entry Fob went flat without warning after returning to the car on a snowy afternoon. SEAT assistance talked me through the work around to get home.
