Hmm. They haven't even bothered to use the 'S'-badge as boot release.

I hope to ****ing christ its cheap, what utter cheap garbage interior. I hope VAG realise the city car sector has moved on since 1985 when this dash was designed... Sat nav makes me lol.

It's a shame SEAT haven't been able to do more with this.
I really dont think VW "get" the small car market.

To me it looks far too similar the CityRover! Thats not a good thing!

If I was in the market for a small car I'd go Fiat 500, Fiat Panda, Renault Twingo etc, much more modern and stylish, plus VAG reliability is a myth and at this pricepoint I can't see the build quality being much different from the rivals either.

SEAT have just issued a video of the Mii - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C0OY1NTYUR4&hd=1

The New Seat Mii

It's a "city" car with lots of cool features;

Its actually not bad IMO, maybe in a different colour, looks a lot better than it's competition, only thing which suprises me is it isn't tax exempt as it produces more than 100g of co2,

What do you think?

 

[Tonezz]

Looks crap, they could of put more thought into it.

Why would you make a car that looks somewhat similar to a Daewoo Matiz!!?! xD

Omfg my first though was it looked like the city rover! Not muc better interior either.

I can do the front 3/4

I need to see one to get the rest I think.

Highly competitive end of the market, not sure it'll be any better now there's another three there.

And no USP now it's just another front engined car.

very much on the fence

If it is under 8k otr.. then that is pretty cheap, forgot how expensive even small cars have got, Hyundai i10 is £8195 otr and the citroen C1 £8695.

 

[BaldyDave]

Oh heck - this car is a pretty dull effort! The outside lacks the design flare shown by the latest Ibizas, Leons and Exeos. I guess it has to be built down to a price but surely Seat could have done better! As has already been said it looks pretty-much like a City Rover....unfortunately!

I totally agree the dash is poorly designed and looks cheap - really cheap!

Lets hope this car is as cheap as it looks! If it isn't I can't see it selling in the already crowded city car sector.

Looks more like a VW Fox replacement than a Seat with that horizontal midline,

 

[CandyWight]

Not for Mii either! The front end looks ok, but I don't like the rear view much - I like my S badge handle too much!

 

[Cougar]

Jump on the city car band wagon

 

[Biker]

I don't think it looks that bad!

Have you seen how many Daewoo Matiz's there are on the road, possibly Seat fancy a bit of the action

+1. I'm not convinced by it, and the video doesn't help, however, I'll reserve judgement for when I see one in the flesh. For sure, Pedro has done a better job of designing the body than the VW/Skoda boys, and depending on the price, could be a good buy. But we'll see what happens. Will defo be watching this model though.

Yes and i cringe at every one of them!! haha

I'v hitched a ride in one before as well, it didn't feel very safe at all xD.

 

[markmeus]

I don't like it, but at least it'll probably not rattle, there's nothing too rattle, I can see more bare metal than trim on the inside!

 

[great_kahn]

Not for Mii either!
