2014 Seat Toledo SE 1.2 TSi petrol

Summary:

Fantastic

Faults:

Timing chain rattle - replaced before I bought the car. Expensive, but worth it, these are known to fail.

Suspension noise from rear - having it looked at soon.

A/C weak.

General Comments:

Sharp looking little car in red. Big 5 spoke alloys. Window tints. Nice looking!

Popular sight as as a taxi (usually 1.6 diesels), but my 1.2 TSi petrol has been great, nice performance and still does over 40 mpg no matter how I drive it (who needs diesel?)

That said it's not great to drive, pretty generic experience, not bad but just boring.

Inside the dash is nicely laid out, seats are comfortable enough, but the suspension and ride leaves a lot to be desired, far too unrefined.

Boot space is huge for a smaller car. SE trim has enough equipment.

Smart, economical, modern, easy to live with, love it!

Would you buy another car from this manufacturer? Yes
