Used Seat Leon cars for sale ...
Hatchback
Well, it looks absolutely gorgeous for a start, thanks to that teardrop, five-door hatchback shape. And, with the underpinnings of the widely acclaimed Volkswagen Golf backing the Leon up, there's substance beneath those seductive looks.
Very good though the interior is, don’t expect absolute top-notch quality plastics. Visibility isn’t great, either, due to thick, sweeping, windscreen pillars. The boot isn’t as big as the Volkswagen Golf’s or a Ford Focus’s, nor is the load aperture as practical.
Sitting behind the Leon’s small steering wheel on the well bolstered driver’s seat, you feel very much as if you're in a sporting car - and it doesn’t disappoint you out on the road, either. Although the ride can be a little firm, body control is tight and the handling is tidy and precise, while the engine line-up is impressive, at least for the most part.
Running Costs
The days of picking up low-mileage, second-hand Seats very cheaply are long gone. When the Leon was released in 2005, predicted resale values were strong - maybe not quite up to VW Golf levels, but certainly better than the equivalent Ford Focus or Vauxhall Astra. So, a used Leon can look quite dear. Servicing costs aren’t exactly low, either, but they are still reasonable. The 10,000-mile service intervals are not as lengthy as those of a Vauxhall Astra, which can in theory run for up to two years or 20,000 miles before needing attention. Similarly, if you need to pay for repairs at a Seat dealer, you'll be charged a slightly higher hourly rate than at a Ford, Vauxhall or even Volkswagen franchise. Stick with the 38.1mpg 1.6 Stylance, and you’ll only incur group 5 insurance costs. The 197bhp turbo FR is rated at group 14, which is very low for a hot hatch. It’s best run on expensive super-unleaded, but is capable of 35.8mpg.
