2002 Seat Toledo V5 review from UK and Ireland
"Good performance with lots of toys"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Although not this particular vehicle, the demo car I had started to make a knocking sound from the front when turning.
This vehicle has a knocking when reversing using right-lock. Dealer to investigate.
On delivery, found 2 plastic 'caps' just floating around in the engine compartment.
General comments?
Owing to its 170BHP, very quick off the mark.
Looks sporty, but not overdone.
Would recommend getting a boot-spoiler fitted. Makes the car look even better.
Better fuel economy made if cruise control used.
SEAT should consider making the boot compartment a few inches shorter to allow for a bit more legroom in the rear.
Latest UK model seems to have dropped the Electronic Memory function for the seats.
Cruise Control function stalk can be a bit difficult to play with.
Fold-down arm rest could be a bit shorter in length. You can only really make use of this on longer journeys.
As the CD Changer is in the glove compartment, remaining space is very limited.
As the manuals are so think etc, the area to store them is not big enough.
Lots of gadgets as Standard (Sat Nav, 6 CD Changer, Auto-Dim Rear View Mirror, Folding Wing Mirrors, Climate Control, Cruise Control, Rain Sensor Wipers, Spring Loaded Cup-Holder)
