2007 Seat Altea FR 170 TDI review from UK and Ireland
"Porsche chaser!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Absolutely nothing has gone wrong!
General comments?
Fantastic car - the 170bhp diesel is a dream to drive - can't fault this car much - other than maybe interior cabin noise on motorway - not of the quality of the Exeo - (my next car finances permitting) - and tyre wear - tho that may be my driving style!
The dials are easy to read with red illumination on white. seats are comfortable - I'm 6'5" with chronic neck and back pain and I have no trouble finding a comfortable driving position.
In UK vehicle road tax is £170 and running costs are very affordable - goodish economy with average mpg of 40-45.
