On the verge of buying an Ateca and you've basically reaffirmed everything I've liked about it. Really good review, thanks very much.

Great review, Dave. The Ateca is another future possible for me, so good to have your views on it. I’m a Seat fan, having owned 2 Alhambras, an Altea and an Ibiza (actually my wife’s) in the past. They are more or less VWs in slightly different clothing but usually offer better value for money than the VW model from which they are derived. I’ve already done as much research on the.revised Ateca as possible online and my conclusions are much the same as yours. That 1.5 tfsi is a damn good unit and that’s the version I’d have in xperience trim. Just a question of deciding when to change now. Cheers

Hi there Michael. Thank you for the comment. The Ateca is even a car I’d consider as it is a true all-rounder. With everything going on in the world right now it’s always good to see what offers dealers are makings.

Just ordered an Experience Lux to get the "toys" the lower models should have, Digital Cockpit, heated seats and windscreen. Moving up from a Leon FR with the 1.5TSI, so I know how it will feel on the road. Will keep it for 3 or 4 years then look at the new Ateca as that should be about by then. Good review, would love to see the Cupra Ateca review.

Having the 69 plate fr model I'm happy with it, I like the mid life refresh but wish it had modernized its engines hybrid, electric etc. Might be worth the wait to upgrade when a fully new model comes.

The pre-facelift is still an amazing car and drives beautifully. The Formentor is that model to showcase the hybrid suv tech from the Seat group brand to begin with.

Pick my FR up end on June but believe it or not I havent even sat in one. They didn't have any, couldn't get any , they blamed the EU but the sales guy pulled out all the stops and found me an FR. My main problem is the trim levels. Why do they put all this new tech into only the top 3 cars. I'm still not sure if my FR 2ltr diesel will have all digital dash or half and half. The spec sheet states 9.2" touch screen but doesn't mention the dials section so until June I won't know and I think ALL large SUV style cars these days should have leather as standard. 1 more thing NO ELECTRIC SOCKET IN THE BOOT. My 15 year old Peugeot has one WAKE UP SEAT, For 30 grand it should make coffee ☕ 😋

You don’t get heated seats as you get a Climacoat windscreen which is far more useful in our market. Compare the cost with its rivals, and it’s extremely good value.

Fake exhaust pipes! Bit like fake bumpers that don't bump without breaking some lights. Back in the day, as an apprentice attending college, we learnt the saying Oxcart Design. Basically, the cart had wheel arches which were no longer needed. Some things don't change. Here today and 45 years later, we have the Oxcart Seat Attica with fake exhaust pipes.
