A nice, detailed review. This chap deserves more subscribers. Talks in real world terms and very relatable views on how much power you need for UK roads.

I like the sleeper look. You don't expect it to have power. I love my 1.5 fr leon. But when my lease ends I'm looking at these or GTI golf. I don't mind ethier. It's just what deal I can get when I'm eligible to swap

Hit the nail on the head here Stef, I hate that side profile. Cupra’s we’re supposed to be a bit ‘out there’ they did get it wrong. I nearly got one of these on lease, as good deal, I thought I liked the interior but it looks very grey on here! I’ve recently tried to go for an Abarth 595 Comp which was a great lease deal but the company seems to be messing me around now. They don’t seem very bothered at all!!

I've got one of these. It's a nice well rounded car with a good amount of space but the silver doesn't do it for me either. Completely agree with the touch screen. I'm used to it and navigation is easy and became easy quite quickly, but it's just not quick or responsive enough at times.

Your right about the side Stef, looks bit like a family sedan from side maby a regular Toyota something. Frontwize it reminds of Mazda, and in my book thats a good thing. Ithink compared to a Golf if this is lighter, we shod have a more agile car here. I would say my Clubsport thats 100 kilos lighter than regular gti or so, is still not exactly a light, that i realized when driving my old 900-kilo Nissan Micra parents now inherited.. Its strange how fun a 70-90 hp car can be just because of the weight factor.. 😄 (it is in fact so strange that i would love to see that Micra modded, if you know what imean.. 👍)

MK1 and 3 were so smooth in looks department. MK2 and this one...from some angles they look ok, from others not so much. I always liked that sleeper looks (especially with mk3 st version), but this one looks really really boring and those wheels are absurd.

Visual Drama. No. Old 53 reg era FR mark one 1.8t petrol 225 cupra had it all. Since Seat cum Cupra lost it totally to VW , who just do it right. Nice balance drivetrain and body styling / kit on the R. KZfaqrs generally dislike the wheels. There is massive need this look better not worse than the R. The new electric Cupra the Id3 sister does look better than ID3
