Seat Leon 1.6 Reference review

Seat Leon 1.6 Reference

Test date 29 May 2006  Price as tested £13,345

For a while now it has been difficult to put a finger on exactly what role Seat plays in the VW hierarchy. With Skoda buttoning up the bottom end of the market, Audi at the top and VW itself somewhere in the middle, it’s not immediately obvious where Seat fits. But, we are now told, it is VW’s sporting brand, with Latin blood in its veins and a purposeful look in its eye. But if Seat is to become VW’s answer to Alfa-Romeo, it needs some good, solid product with real sporting credentials and the latest is this all new Leon. So how does it shape up?
