SEAT Leon 2.0 TDI 16v 170PS FR
What is it?
A HOT hatch that promises to put a smile on your face whether on a B-road or at the pumps. Latest FR comes with a new super-efficient 170PS 2.0-litre turbodiesel, allied to a mild bodykit, sports suspension and racy interior. Priced at £19,750 on the road, it could be the best hot hatch business car you can buy for under £20,000.
What’s hot?
- The pace on offer…0-62mph in 8.2 seconds and tons of overtaking urge
- But with 53.3mpg and 139g/km it’s very cheap to run
- Quiet too; the new engine is smooth and hushed at motorway speed…
- …helped by a long sixth gear for great high speed cruising
- Handling boasts lots of grip, yet ride is much better than before
- Still looks sharp and is available in a range of lurid colours
- Interior well built, gets neat sports seats and iPod connectivity
What’s not?
- You need to buy a special lead from SEAT for full iPod control
- Chunky front and rear pillars compromise visibility
- A VW Golf and Ford Focus have more fluid and linear steering
