Excellent review. Might be worth listing the recommended frequency of the timing belt replacement, depending on the engine. Not many people know how to look these up, let alone the plethora of engines offered over the model cycle.

Just come on my recommended. I own a grey leon fr 2018 (currently in my pfp but soon to be replaced). Just wanted to say it’s a great car and I’ve been impressed with it for sure. Recommended.

I am an happy owner of Leon estate 1.6 TDI Tech+ 64 plate . Got everything I need as extras. I should pick up friends from Airport, in total 4 adults (including me) 3 big suitcases, 2 small suitcases using climate and I haven't any usies with the travel, absolutely cracking on MPG, you top it up the fuel tank you gonna forget about it for long time ( in my case is like that) My high is 180cm (5.9) and the passenger behind me was taller than me and he was fine with the legs room for that 1.5 hours of traveling, other two passengers was average size ladies Hope that information is good enough for you guys

Still in doubt which one i am gonna buy. Leon, Golf or Guilietta

[@jordanrudge3411]

Be diffrent and go for the guilietta!

[@JR-rj8nd]

@@jordanrudge3411 went to see one in real life and didnt like it .... also im 2 meters tall and didnt really fit good. Now looking into a gte

[@ernodios]

Go for the Leon. VW quality/reliability without the German boredom or the Italian unreliability

[@JR-rj8nd]

@@ernodios got the GTE, chiptuned it to 310 hp haha best car ive ever owned

[@jazzip2989]

I would stay away from the alpha...that's just my opinion. hope you make a decision that will leave you happy in the end
