2009 Seat Leon Reviews

Retro fitted cruise control was poor to start with - fixed by an engineer who came to out to the car.

Now the cruise control stalk has worked loose.

Generally a very good car, goes and handles well. Looks great.

Visibility is fine despite the thick, front windscreen pillars.

Level of standard equipment is good.

Scrappage deal was fantastic - but that's finished now.

The only real negative with the car is the seats are uncomfortable - there's a hard ridge that runs front to back in the centre - Seat dealer says this is normal!!

The one thing that has ruined the whole Seat buying experience is the attitude and service provided by the dealership - very poor. Once they had the signature on the order form, they have been very disappointing - interesting to see a similar comment from another person.

Contacted Seat UK recently, but never got any reply to my e-mail.

Contacted the dealer - was told their lines were busy, they would call me back. I telephoned three times, but never got a single call back.

Seat have a good product; it's a pity their service couldn't be better. We had a 307, and our previous dealer knocked spots of these people, nothing was too much trouble.

Seat are keen to take your order, but once the car is delivered, well what else can I say.

Good product, poor back up.

Nothing so far.

This is a sports car (125hp). The engine is superb. The suspension is firm. I won't recommend the sport suspension if you don't have good roads!

The seats are very comfortable, and there's a lot of room in the back.

This is the facelift model, so the dashboard is totally different from the old one.

The boot is large.

The price was low for a car with so much equipment, especially EBD, TCU, EBA, DSR, ABS, tyre pressure monitoring, automatic air conditioning, leather steering wheel etc. The stereo sounds very good.

It's very fun to drive. I've got my smile on my face when I drive it. Next car will also be a Leon for sure!

Bought the FR Leon in white from Seat in Liverpool, and after I put my deposit down was unsure whether I made the right choice, but still went through with the sale.

WOW, it is gorgeous, and is really quick off the mark.

I have never seen so many people paying attention to a car when this is on the road, especially in WHITE. Seriously, Seat was not a very popular car, but I am seeing more and more on the road now it has come to Liverpool.

We're talking all the reliability that Audi, VW and Skoda offer for a fraction of the price. The dealer was great too, and can't praise them enough for their help, plus I got a fantastic deal too.
