Can now officially get excited, have bought a 6 month old ex SEAT Uk Leon SC FR 1.8tsi DSG Titanium in black with winter pack, convenience, full link and some other bits I can't remember now, am so happy with the deal I got, the trade in on my old car and SEAT Manchester have been great, no pressure, let me select the car I wanted from the list from SEAT as they didn't have anything in group stock I wanted explained everything from start to finish etc.
Just want my car now!!
:D

Yeah personally, though my partner did buy a brand new Ibiza 1.6 Sport way back in 2001, still have good memories of that car and it's gutsy 8 valve engine and go cart like handling!
I have flipped between the Leon FR and Clio RS 200 EC for a few months but the Leon won out by being the nicer all round car, nicer interior, sweeter engine and dual clutch gearbox etc. I think I made the right decision in the end, I've had 3 years of fun in my Abarth 500 and think I would get tired of the Clio too quickly (like I have with my 500), I am looking forward to some comfort and quiet! lol

Cheers, is weird as I've never bought a used car before without seeing the actual car I'm buying yet, just ones like it, is my own fault for wanting an uncommon spec (1.8 tsi DSG).
