It's still a SEAT.  :evil:
Have you read in Auto Express that the 7 Speed DSG rattles and clangs really loudly due to a design flaw and SEAT cannot fix it? How nice. :embarassed: :shocked:
A bit like my door panels then......

No, no, much, much worse. He thought the engine had fallen out!  :evil:

Yes that same DSG as found in Polos and A1s.

I had a look at an A1 yesterday. Is the dash £5k better than an Ibizas? No, it was almost identical.

And its why we maybe getting one  :grin:
Looking at polo, ibiza and A1 and spec them similar and there all around the same price for what we looked at. :shocked: Polo delays are stupid too longest in the VW group, and there fit and finish before the dealers correct them during PDI is simply shocking, how they let them out the factory i will never know, totally shocked an ex FIAT/Alfa PDI who was with me at the time he looked like  :shocked:.

Honestly Snoops, if you want a good runabout, get one of the new Kias. They are well made, drive well, reliable, long warranty etc. And I am being serious.  :smiley:

But please don't get a Polo as it will fall to bits.
And not an A1 as it will be as common as muck and driven by very strange people with fake tans! Trust me.
