1997 Seat Cordoba SXE review from UK and Ireland
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Just bought, so to early to say, although doors sound as though they don't make as good a contact as they should (a little bit of noise from the seals).
General comments?
Had put in an order for a new Ibiza - after waiting 3 months and what would seem another 3 for delivery stumped up the extra and went for the Cordoba. Best thing I ever did - great car, lovely VW 100bhp 1.6 engine, full equipment (aircon etc).
Dealer is fab - threw in CD player and kept trade - in price for old car for 3 months. Buy one and be surprised!. Petrol a little heavy if car driven fast, but you can't have it all!
