1998 Seat Cordoba 2.0 SX Coupe review from UK and Ireland
"It's a great car, well worth a go in one if you get the chance"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The power steering belt started to slip in the wet.
General comments?
This is a great car, it handles pretty well, although it can be a little light at the rear end causing it to spin out in the wet.
It's pretty comfortable, I drive down south quite often and doing a five hour journey is not much trouble at all.
The only gripe about driving position is that the accelerator pedal is at an awkward angle, and makes you ankle ache after a few hours.
Fuel economy for a two liter car is pretty good, until you start to floor it then it disappears pretty rapidly. You can't have it all I suppose. It's very quick when you floor it.
