The recession has obviously taken its toll on Batman too

Thanks. Now my neck hurts.

I dont want a Renault

The RS250 cup (with LSD) is pretty impressive. But it's still a renault.

 

[n_olympios]

So?

 

[Leonidas]

Ill drive my fathers van if I want a Renault....

 

[n_olympios]

LOL!

Dude, no offence, but it's not very logical to be a brand snob when driving a SEAT*. I know, I drive one too.

*especially when talking about the Megane Sport (which is a great car, in some aspects better than a Leon can ever be).

No offence takin, its just that alot of people close too me(including my parents) have renaults. They all break at some point. Weather its a motor in the electric window, the fan heater not workin and costing nearly 1000 euro to fix or a shock top breaking on a 1 year old car.
Thats 3 different cars im talking about. One of them was replace by a Cordoba btw
Ill stick with my beloved SEAT

From initial shots it doesn't look like its going to be any better looking than the MK2 at the moment.

The rear looks like a Leon MK1. Just hope the front doesn't look like an Ibiza MK5 as the current models look too similar

Yeah, well, the durability and reliability of our cars is debatable as well though. Take a look around for problem sharing in this forum alone. Every car breaks. Sure, french cars have a long reputation of poor build quality and reliability issues but in the last 10 years they've got much better.

Anyway, enough with the OT posts.

Look fairly real but I cant see them hiding the rear door handles really...

 

[SeanCorky]

I hope it's not that, but from looking at the spy pics it may be?

 

[johnbev]

Looks very scirroco to me

 

[Starscraper]

That pic looks like what the Mark 2 facelift should have looked like. I hope the next Leon looks like the IBE concept that was at Geneva.

 

[Leonidas]

Just thought id update this with a few mock ups.(I think they are anyway)

 

[n_olympios]

Cover the front and you get a wonderfully wide Alfa 147.

Don't tell me: DaSilva will be designing (making photocopies, rather) again.

 

[Leonidas]

Isnt Desilva with Audi now?

 

[Leonidas]

Im sorry I just have to post it...

Love the fact its a 3 door. But that was the whole charm of the MK2, watching people try to find the door handle as it does already look like a 3 door

I dont like the way they appear to have extended the engine bay. It looks far too long. Unless theres a RWD option twinned with a V6. I cant see any reason to make it bigger?
