Buyers age Seat Leon

In a video interview at the recent Geneva Motor Show, SEAT's chairman said that the average age of SEAT car buyers was the youngest among car-makers in Europe - a mere 44 years! He also said that this is about eight years younger that the average age of new car buyers in Europe, which must therefore be around 52. (And if this is the average, there must a be a lot of considerably older buyers as well!).

It's not absolutely clear whether he's talking about all makes of car or just the VAG group, but he does say that SEAT buyers are eight years younger "than the rest of the industry".

I suppose it's something to do with many older people having paid off their mortgages and got rid of their kids, giving them money to spend on cars. Also the high cost of insurance (in the UK, at least) must put many younger drivers off buying new cars.
 
44??? Lol and I'm feeling to old to buy an Leon Cupra, I have 37 ;) decision decisions.....
 
Now we just need another 5 surveys to see what each age category is buying... ;)
 
Well that makes me feel young!. I am a mere 44 years old and still like my hot hatch seat Leon's, though they are diesels these days.

Me (27) and my my fiance (25) bought a leon st fr 2.0 184 dsg, still waiting though. Stupid production problems...
 
Here in Portugal ppl with 44 are driving station wagon or SUV , hatch is for the young ppl.
But what a hell I'm feeling young and I love hatches, i miss a bit my civic type r.
 
May I ask why the largest with the smallest engined car? Lol

Easy... Needed the space, didn't want FR and the 1.8 isn't available with DSG. I wouldn't buy a diseasel if it was half the price! So 1.2 it is!

Remember the ST only actually weighs 45kg more than the 5 door... So if you have a diesel 5 door its heavier than a 1.2 ST ;)
 
i'm 70 and love my 1.4tsi 140 PS. In a few years time I can see a Cupra on the drive!

BTW in Spain you have to have a medical every 5 years at my age and that includes a driving simulator and all the rest!
 
25 here.

The average age of a Leon owner tends to me middle aged, Where as the average age of an Ibiza owner tends to be 17-25
