Prices

Been told by a couple of dealers that production starts at week 15.
I take it you have noticed that the price for the FR 2.0 TSI went up by £965 the 1st of April.

Yes, but it is (finally) going to have the new engine with 211BHP.

Don't get me wrong, I'm not moaning...
When the dust settles, if they are discounted about the same as the current car I will swap into the petrol Fr at the end of the summer.

No sorry but i dont think that a £965 price increase is justified, i bought a new FR 2 years ago with a reasonable discount and have been waiting for the facelift, one of the reasons i looked at seat in the first place was because it offered good value i think people will start looking at other brands, have they increased the price to make the now older model pre reg cars appear cheaper i wonder........

Much better engine with better torque.

I'm confused... is the revamp the FR 09 211bhp? If not, what is it?

I spoke to the owner of my local Seat dealership who told me it was a facelift to the full range too.
