CyclingDaz I like the new one, it looks the best since the 90s, but still, its still looks like a 15-year-old with a Halford's club card designed it. Says more about me and my age I think. at my age, I just couldn't own it. Though out of theses, id gets an Octavia I think it's a little nicer in vrs trim over the Leon fr trim. Admittedly the vrs is a few grand more, but so would be the trim of all the cars featured. I'd get the 184 diesel in the Fr trim in estate form. which is cheaper by about 1k over the diesel vrs. Same car, different frock. So it would come down to looks. Also, the seat drives a little better than the Octavia, it's not only sportier it's less harsh. seat has done a good job in the Leon fr. Though I've only driven the 184 Leon fr st back to back with the 180 Octavia vrs estate. I went in to test drive the petrol vrs, 230 iirc, but also took out the diesel. And as seat was nextdoor I took out the sister car the leon st fr diesel. So my decision is two fold, petrol over diesel.1.is the extra grunt ,and less noise worth the mpg hit , about an average 27mpg vs 38mph in the deisel . If the answer is no, the the 2nd question then is do I then save the 1k plus and get the Leon. Its just as good , if better in some ways , except looks imo. I've written far too much . if you got here, hello, all the best and happy new year .

Surprisingly the FR does 0-100km/h in 8s, making it as quick as my 2013 Toyota Auris 1.8 Hybrid (it too does it in 8s flat). That is totally unexpected. I spec'd the Leon FR similarly to my Toyota Auris and the FR will cost me 36k Euro....So it's as fast as a damn Hybrid EV in a straight line, not suited for long trips, only performs well in corners...I'm not so sure about it. Also the FR has totally zero road presence. I got my Auris 1.8 in Pearlwhite (offset white, looks like frosted ice during winter, sparkles during summer), with 19" rims, blacked out roof, blacked out windows, chrome package, the Auris looks totally hardcore. I tried to get a hardcore looking FR, but it just can't happen, it will always look like a cheap car that can't even outrun an Hybrid EV car...for the price, a very bad choice.

Own a 2014 leon and overall it's good to live with. The ride is firm around town and a bit bouncy on some badly surfaced B roads but superb on motorways and dual carriageway where you hardly feel bumps at all. The 1.4 turbo is nice. Good for overtaking yet fuel economy varies between 40 and 50. The interior is well made but needs more flair. Lacks wow factor. Overall I like it. But the civic does look interesting and a softer ride would be tempting.

albertrll that "Hot hatch soul" is a very bold statement. It's the first try from Hyundai in this car class. And a serious one indeed, it does look good overall. But it has to demonstrate a lot of things still. The Cupra is on it's third generation now. It was a record car in the nurburgring. And released all of the tech that the Hyundai has now. DCC chassis, electronic lsd, Drive modes.... it has 300hp and near 100kg less than the Hyundai. Given that the Hyundai is just being released, I still prefer the Cupra. Some time later on, we'll see how good the Hyundai really is. I hope it will not dissapoint, more competition is always good in this class.
@pokest2256 жыл бұрын
albertrll are you from Spain? Me too haha. The Cupra is not that expensive in reality. The brand's configurator gives an higher price than the one you can get at the dealers. Talking about the performance pack, all the Hyundai features are standard in the Leon without that pack. The Leon's performance pack adds Big brembo brakes and Michelin cup tyres. That's another plus. I did a short test drive in a Cupra 280 dsg without pp, and the car was VERY good. But to be honest, I prefer manual gearbox over faster times. I hope I can do a test drive in the i30N, so I can actually have a real opinion about It. My current car is a Focus st mk2 with mods.

Seat sells like 500 cars in my country per year, same for Skoda.. while in europe Seat and Skodas are fucking everywhere so here is a plus. Well, except when someone says "nice chinese car" or "it looks pretty luxury for a chinese car" - Skoda Superb: i am a joke to you?

I think the Leon FR in its estate form looks the best. If you get the 184bhp diesel, you're getting a cheaper diesel vrs. Edit Back ten months later, next month I'll be taking delivery of the ST FR 2l tsi 190 👍. I still don't like the looks of the model in the video trh 3 door SC and 5 door ST are both better looking to me. I wanted an Octavia vrs estate, but I just couldn't get use to the new front lights the Octavia has, so went with the ST FR 190.

The new Honda graphics for the 2018 models here in Canada (and I'm assuming the US) are actually the best I would say. It honestly feels like your using a fast android tablet as apposed to a high latency infotainment screen, though I'll agree the older systems are meh.

While the Hyundai might not drive as well as the other two, it has much better tech, it's styling is far more premium than the seat or Honda, it's comfortable, and it has a great warranty. I don't see how the Honda won. It's so fugly that it just ruins the good qualities about it.

I own a Civic 1.5turbo for a week now. I think it has a beautiful nose. But the rear end is a bit awkward. Not really a elegant design. But the interior is very nice, it's very spacious. It sounds good in sport plus trim and is pretty fast and fun when you want it to drive it like a grandma and you'll never notice there is 182 horsepower. It's very quiet in low rpm. The entertainment system is good for me. 🙄 Haven't noticed anything I have a problem with. You can change all the important stuff on your steering wheel.
