I’d defo retail that for £3995 with the hope of getting between £3500-3900. It cleaned up really well and had a great spec. I reckon it would be gone in a few weeks. You’ve done as much as anyone should expect a used car dealer to do for that price: full MOT with no advisories, service including gearbox service (which I’ve never heard of a used car dealer EVER doing that voluntarily!) and dents repaired were possible. That should make somebody a really nice runaround. Let’s us know the outcome 👍🏻

Love this car, the colour on this one is also really nice. I have one from the same year, 2010. It's a 1.4TSI manual and it's running smoothly as ever. Bought it 3 years ago with 146.000km on the clock. Today it has 234.000km on the clock. I love driving this thing as you can see and living in the Netherlands we took it for a trip to Germany and France quite often. Serviced every 15.000km and it pays me back every time I'm taking it for a drive. The only complaint I would have is the interior of this generation has a lot of hard plastics. But other than that, loving it!

I've spent around 15 years around the SEAT brand as an admin of an owners club, I've had two MK2 Leon's as well. That car is a MK2 Facelift model, it has a few "rare" extras on it such as the armrest and the door sill guards with "SEAT Sport" on them. In today's market worth 3k all day long with all the maintenance done. My old 2010 MK2 Cupra R had a dent on the door in that sport and the local guy managed to get it out.

Had 177 000 km (about 110 000 miles) when I bought it, now it has almost 210 000 km (130 000 miles) and runs well so far with no problems at all.

Great video as always Matt :) Leon has scrubbed up well and nice colour too :) I used to have an A3 as a Company car with that same drive train (1.6 TDi & DQ 200 7 speed dry clutch DSG) It got driven fairly hard for 4 years / 100k and never has any issues with the box at all. I have same gearbox now in my Mk 3 Leon 1.8 Petrol and also fine but only 12k on that car so far. Its not the strongest DSG as someone already said and its torque limited to 250NM so only ever goes in the VAG cars with engines under 2 litres. From doing my own research I found 2 common failure points mentioned a lot, mechatronics unit failure & clutch packs wearing out, the latter of course will depend on how its been driven, i.e. letting car creep with foot half on brake will cause clutch wear on these gearboxes as they use a more traditional style clutch and not a torque converter, so maybe confirm costs with your gearbox people and weight it up from there based on worse case scenario....

That 7 speed DSG has a dry clutch. Thus the clutch wear doesn’t contaminate the oil. It doesn’t need a service any more than any manual gearbox and in my experience they’re fairly reliable. The thing to watch out for is the clutch, because it’s right at the torque limit with the 1.6 tdi. I’d be careful if it’s a car with this drivetrain + a tow bar and/or a remap

For the money this is a great car and with things as they are right now, if someone offered you 1000 cars in the same condition for the same initial trade in value with a little prep and financial outley..... you'd have a good start to the year and you'd sell a lot of these older, high mileage but still strong cars.... Mix these cars in with some newer higher valued stock and I'm sure you'd have a recipe for success. As always great video and assessment of cars....

Great videos Matt keep it up. Those leons where a great car in their day. General rule of thumb on DSGs any of the lower powered cars will always use this the 7-speed dry gearbox. These are the ones that can be jerky and give issues. In fact they dont even have a service interval. VW will tell you they are sealed for life. The 6 speed wet clutch (which is what you would find in the 2.0 diesel) is a much more robust unit. They have a service interval of every 40k.

Hello, Lovely looking car and great video (love your content in general), but regarding the car I genuinely thought the whole time that I am hearing a Turbo whistling and I was surprised that its actually fine.

Been watching these videos for a bit and Im not an overly car person but there a good insight into what to look for etc. HOwever one thing always gets me, what is the dislike for non matching / non branded tyres?

I'd add it to the forecourt. I'd say for the amount profit potential, I'd say it is worth the slight risk, high risk, larger reward! Great video.

Agree with you great colour. Another great video. It depends what you can get trade vs retailling it. I would trade it if its not much difference.

I’d risk it and retail it. Looks good and from what you were saying, drives well and now has a clean MOT. 🤞 the gear box behaves and your quids in

Hi Matt. Great video as always. Any chance of some follow up info on sales of these cars. What you end up selling them for etc... Your very open and honest but I understand if you want to keep that sort of info confidential.

Hi Matt! You know a good car when you see one, follow your gut - it's a clean, desirable, decent spec automatic which bring a premium. Let them know about the DIY armrest, and retail it - after negotiations, it's a £3k car all day long!
