Agreed on the Cupra.
Granted, if you don’t like the look of them then you’ll probably never gel with the car.
And if you spend your days sat scratching interior plastics then you’re not going to love a Leon. Or most other cars in the class.
Look past that and you’ve got all the good bits of the Golf mk7 range in one package as a great drivers car that’s also very solidly built and doesn’t have any more or less reliability issues than a Golf mk7(.5)
Or an Octavia vRS?
The 308 GTI is an interesting suggestion though. A bit different, looks good, should be fun.
