2000 Seat Cordoba review from UK and Ireland
"I love the car, but would never buy another SEAT"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The paint work/plastic coating on the inside handles of the doors on both the driver and passenger side began to chip and flake after a month or so. a total mess.
The clutch disintegrated after 12,000 miles. It had to be replaced. The SEAT service mechanic s told me there was a serious fault with the clutch and that the clutch pedal was cracked and would need replaced. Have had trouble with the clutch from new and am still having trouble.
General comments?
Very economical.
Back seat is very cramped and uncomfortable.
Poor visibility through rear window. Hard to see below the boot level. Dangerous when reversing.
Like the lines of the car and enjoy driving it.
Like the interior finish. The information panel easy to read.
Very dissatisfied with the companies public relations. Very unsatisfactory outcome to an ongoing mechanical fault.
I would love to speak to one of the faceless people in public relations and tell them what a disservice they are doing to this company.
