Either a SEAT, GOLF or MERCEDES.

Independent

Did you buy this car new?

No

What price did you pay?

£12,000

When did you buy the car?

July 2013

Did you get a good deal and why?

Yes, a very good deal. It saved me £2500 on a Golf that I was looking at. Everything I asked to be done to the car, and more, before I picked it up was carried out top notch.

Is there any special reason why you bought this car?

Was offered to me as an alternative to my search for a VW Golf. The 170bhp powerhouse, the sat nav, radio, dvd etc. and steering wheel controls were all very nice attractions.

What was the dealer like?

Excellent, gave me a good deal on my Golf trade In and ensured the SEAT was as new for me to take away.

What's it like to drive?

Excellent, gets easier and easier every time. Holds the road excellently. A cruise one minute, the next second, the 170bhp bursts into life when wanted.

What's it like to park?

Easy, sensors on the rear, although a bit cautious, saves for any bumps. Light sterring helps too.

Have you had any problems with the car?

Nothing, it does put a smile on my face every time I walk to it to enter the joy of driving it.

What's most practical about your car?

Press the key, it unlocks, unlike my Golf that had to go through a double unlock to open the passenger door. Get in and out of the parking space due to having the assistance of the sensors the night before when parking.

Favourite gadget, option or accessory?

Steering Wheel controls for radio, flipping through the various mileage, fuel consumption, journey time stuff.
