SEAT

FOR WHOM THE BELL TOLS

If you're going to be sensible in your choice of compact family car, then SEAT's Toledo has a lot to be said for it, especially in 1.6-litre TDI diesel guise. Jonathan Crouch tries it....

TOL PLAZA

SEAT's Toledo offers good honest motoring at a knockdown price. Score one for straightforwardness. Jonathan Crouch reports.

If you like the thought of SEAT's freshly launched little Mii citycar but feel it could do with a bit of extra visual punch, then the Vibora Negra edition may be just up your street. The name is Spanish for 'black viper'. One thing's for certain: it'll certainly make your neighbours stare. Jonathan Crouch reports

IT'S A MII THING

SEAT's Mii is a citycar you can't ignore if you're in search of an efficient but sparky urban runabout. Jonathan Crouch tries it.

GET SHORTY

SEAT's short wheelbase three-door Leon SC model offers a fresh approach and an interesting outcome. Andy Enright reports.

A BIT MORE MII

SENSIBLY RACY

SEAT's third generation Leon looks tempting in sporty FR trim. Jonathan Crouch tries it.

CUPRA OF PLENTY

SEAT has pushed the performance boat out with its 261bhp Leon Cupra R hatch. Steve Walker reports.

THE LEON KING

A DIESEL WITH SPANISH SPIRIT

SEAT's third generation Leon will be most popular in 105PS 1.6-litre TDI diesel form. Jonathan Crouch finds out why

LEON CUB

SEAT's Leon has, to date, been most appealing the more power you threw at it. So what's the third-generation one like with a little 1.2-litre engine? Andy Enright reports.

LEON REVITALISED

THE LEON KING

HOT PESETA

CONSTANT LEON

SEAT's third generation Leon looks much like its popular predecessor but is fresh from the ground up. Jonathan Crouch reports.

ARE YOU SEAT'ED COMFORTABLY?

BEST SEAT IN THE HOUSE?

IBIZA AS IT SHOULD BE

The fourth generation version of SEAT's Ibiza supermini has smartened up its act. Jonathan Crouch tries it.

SEAT'S LITTLE RAY OF SUNSHINE

ESTATE MODERN

Can SEAT's reputation for sportiness extend to the functional supermini estate market? Steve Walker checks out the Ibiza ST.

PARTY LINE

SEAT's recently made over Ibiza is available in three body styles but the three-door models are the most affordable and, arguably, the most fun. David Vivian takes a closer look at the improved Ibiza SC range.

IBIZA ON A BUDGET

SEAT's Ibiza has developed from very humble beginnings into a deeply impressive supermini. Andy Enright takes a look at the most affordable 1.2 12V 60PS three-door SC petrol version of this improved model.

HOT IBIZA BARGAIN?

Not the hottest SEAT Ibiza, the FR TDI version could nevertheless be the best value for buyers seeking performance without the penalties. Steve Walker reports.

FR FROM THE CRAZY CROWD

SEAT's 'warm' hatch range is looking particularly sharp and high tech these days. Steve Walker reports on the recently refreshed Ibiza FR 1.4 TSI.

TAKING A BACK SEAT

SPANISH FLY

The SEAT Ibiza Cupra has never quite attracted the same following as Cupra versions of its bigger brother, the Leon. Perhaps this one can change all that. Andy Enright reports.

SUPER BOC

SEAT's saves top spot in its Ibiza range for the Bocanegra. Steve Walker reports.
