how is new Altea?

[specek]

HI
I'm just wondering who have got new facelifted altea? Can somebody share new experiences? problems(?) and overall opinion?

I'm thinking of buying new 1.4 125hp.

I'm due a new Altea XL SE any day now so can't wait to get it.

Just a bit gutted that they have got a 1.6tdi ecomotive coming out in March 10 with 63 mpg and 99 g/km co2.

As mine is a company car I would have waited for this if I had known when I ordered it back in October.

I got a new Altea SE 2.0 TDi in November. Really pleased with it. Drove well in the snow apart from the wiper problem already talked about in this forum.
Getting nearly 50mpg despite it dropping low when we were just doing short runs in the snow.
Comfortable on longer trips, been to Gateshead, Manchester and Lincoln from Bedford so far.
Dual zone heating stops the arguments, and stick your whole MP3 library on a memory stick and plug it in the usb socket in the centre box and away you go.
Disappointed with the sat nav though (had the media pack), Blaupunkt not very accurate on destination and will not let you put in full postcode. Not good if you are going to a company with no number. Used to have Co pilot on my old phone which was much better.
