Clarkson likes a SEAT! (the Leon ST Cupra 300 4Drive)

[Walpurgis]

Usually Jeremy Clarkson hates SEATs but in a review in The Sunday Times last weekend he gave the Leon ST Cupra 300 4Drive four stars (out of five). In particular, he liked the seats and the noise it makes - but he hated its looks!

Funny coincidence. I hate his looks too. :-D

Jokes aside, I actually always wondered how any living being can consider for instance the Golf R to be the smarter looking of the two. OK, the facelift R looks almost decent, but honestly the Leon lines are so much more interesting and harmonised. The car looks sporty in a way the competition can't touch. IMNSHO..... I do agree, though, that the Cupra could do with a bit more separation in details from the "regular" Leons.

Now I've read the review too. Nice that he likes the Cupra, but honestly. That guy really knows how to shovel manure.

That is the very reason I like my Cupra, understated looks but delivers when driving

Yes agree with biker it's a wolf in sheeps clothing and until people see that tiny little 300 badge they know not to mess.
When they eventually catch you up at the traffic lights wondering what the :wtf just happens
