2001 Seat Toledo V5 review from UK and Ireland
"Great car, a BMW in SEAT clothing"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Traction Control button not working, but this was resolved when returned to dealer.
Rear number plate detached. Dealer sent me some fixing screws so now it's fixed properly rather than relying on sticky pads.
General comments?
I had about £14000 to splash on a nearly new car that had to fit some personal and family requirements. I had a shortlist of the IS200, Mondeo ST24, Golf V5 and the Toledo V5. The latter won!
A great V5 engine which is quick, has plenty of torque and is extremely smooth.
Loads of goodies as standard, including satellite navigation, electric memory seats and six CD player to name just a few.
Mine is Ebony black and has the beige leather/suede interior which makes the cabin very light and airy and gives an executive feel.
The V5 offers great value for money and is an excellent car. I tried some competitors, but I bought a 6 month old car with super low mileage for the price of a 2 year old Lexus/Golf... I'm smiling!
