SEAT Toledo 1999-

Want to know everything there is to know about this car?

  • Economy

    Value

    5 out of 5 5.0

    Budget wouldn't stretch to decent diesel Passat, so plumped for this. Very pleased.

    Costs

    5 out of 5 5.0

    £100 for 10,000 mile service. 1000-mile trip to continent gave over 50mpg with family and luggage at 70mph.

  • On the road

    Driving

    5 out of 5 5.0

    Likes the motorway.

    Performance

    5 out of 5 5.0

    Not really bothered, but seems nippyish.

  • Living with it

    Reliability

    4 out of 5 4.0

    Probably too soon to tell, but not chuffed about the engine mountings.

    Poor man's Passat, but then I can't afford a Passat. QED. The car itself looks quite good in black and has been remarked on.

    Comfort

    4 out of 5 4.0

    Very comfortable. Nice big boot.

  • Security and Service

    Security

    4 out of 5 4.0

    It's still here.

    Service

    3 out of 5 3.0

    SEAT dealer who did the bolt repairs and servicing 10/10. SEAT dealer who sold the car to me... complete waste of space.
