I think it looks quite nice. A bit like an Ibiza SC crossed with the current Leon. Hopefully it won't age as badly as the current Leon...
I'd like to add that in the second image, it looks like an Astra GTC (albeit with five doors).
It's nice to see that those once tacky rear door handles have been made to look normal again. I didn't like the way the last one concealed the door handles in the window. Honda and Chevrolet do a better job of it.
It does actually look quite Astra GTC-ish, more than it does a Scirroco anyway.
It's like an Astra has crashed into the back of an Ibiza! The one in the pictures is probably a Cupra or something - I imagine the more basic ones would look a bit crap without all the sportiness of the one in the pics.
1st Gen Leon was really neat, and the 2nd Gen was terrible. This looks like a very big improvement. How soon will it be on the streets I wonder.
Seems like I'm in the minority here. The first generation Leon to me was the runt of the litter. I thought the alternative VAG offerings, the Golf and Octavia better looking. The Leon reminding me of the Mk.2 Astra combined with a bit of Rover 25.
The 2nd generation Leon in my eyes was the best of the bunch. The Mk.5 Golf and the 2nd gen Octavia both lacking in visual appeal in comparison.

Nice car, shame about the spam.
Already reported.

It looks quite like an Audi from the front and a little like a Scirroco from the side/rear.

That's at least two reasons not to buy one! ;)

I don't think it's aged that well though. The once edgy looks are now very dated.
