Thanks for that. Will have a look through a few lease sites before heading to my dealer and seeing what deal they can do for me. On my second PCP with a Leon but im never going to keep the car after 3years so a lease makes better sense financially

Is that through Seat finance or a lease company ? What sort of term/mileage is that for if you don't mind ?

Well for me I only do around 8000 miles a year. Mainly commuting to work on a congested motorway and around town at the weekend so don't think I would miss the performance though cant believe it would be that much. Plus, its 1,600 pounds cheaper to buy ! Both versions are ACT, the 130 posts...

Anybody had a drive or taken delivery of the new 1.5 Evo 130bhp engine in a Leon ? . Almost time to renew my 1.4 150bhp FR and was wondering if the less powerful engine was still a decent drive

Hi, im thinking of another Leon when mine is at the 3 year point in a few months. Did the facelift last year fix the issues with the rattles in the door cards? My first Mk3 ( a 5 door) and my current SC has the door rattles. The SC seems to be temperature related, the colder it gets the more the...

I couldn't believe it either when I swapped my 2103 Mk3 SE for a 2106 FR. Lost the Ipod lead from the glove box and assumed I could use the socket in the centre console ! I was told I would need to pay to upgrade to full link to enable support for my Ipod. I sourced a Y shaped lead online for a...

I had an airbag warning light come on my previous Mk 3 Leon. It was about 2 years old at the time so was still under warranty. The dealer said it just needed a software update which cured it

I had the panoramic roof on my 2013 Leon SE and now on my 2016 FR, no problems whatsoever with either one

I hate the fact that the LED for the alarm system on my Leon is on the passenger door. Not changing the position of the stop/start button for RHD is just so cheap and shameful.

I was thinking of downsizing from my Leon when I change it next time and going back to an Ibiza. I think the new Ibiza looks great ( mini leon !), but the colour range is awful. Would have liked a red ( Emocion ), now gone and no silver, my favorite colours. None of the others I really...

I just did a trip from Glasgow to Cambridge and back the week before last in my Leon 1.4 FR EcoTSI. The warmer weather really does help with consumption too. Trip computer figures ( mine has always seemed not too inaccurate), gave the journey time of 6:08 hrs for 378 miles, ave speed 62 mph and...

Hi Guys, just for your info I just did a trip down to Cambridge from Glasgow the other week in my 16 plate Leon 1.4 FR EcoTSI. Went down the M74/M6 to Penrith, across the A66 to Scotch Corner then down the A1, keeping to 70 on the motorway etc. Just saying what the trip computer said...journey...

I had a problem with the media system on my 2013 Leon SE when it was around a year old. It kept turning itself off for around 5 mins then come back on. Did this for a few weeks then failed completely. Seat replaced the media system under warranty thankfully as it would have cost around £800 !

Got sorted with a Y lead off of Amazon for under a fiver. It has an Ipod connector and aux in and USB connector so it will charge the Ipod too. Works great apart from having to use the Ipod controls instead of the touchscreen/steering wheel, but I can live with that. Still miffed about the...

Thanks, better than nothing I suppose. Such a pain after having it in my SE. A backward step and a way to get more money out of you !

Does the Aux in give you functionality via the steering wheel controls and touchscreen or do you have to use the Ipod controls ?

I recently upgraded from a MY13 Leon SE which had the media cable in the glovebox and worked my classic Ipod no problem. I tried to use my Ipod cable in the USB port by the gear lever on my new FR and got the device not supported message. I asked on here and was advised that if I wanted Ipod...

Sorry to hear that and hope you manage to get it fixed ok. I upgraded to a new FR (ice silver too) from an SE in March. Had it 3 weeks, filled up with petrol at ASDA Govan and was just about to drive off when the oaf in the car next to me, flung open his drivers door and put a dent in my rear...

I have just upgraded to an FR from an SE. The ride on the SE I though was firm but comfortable. The FR ride/handling I think is just amazing. Most of my commute to work is on the motorway but have a couple of miles of A roads too which are not in good condition. I find the ride great, firm but...

Hi, I have just traded in my Leon 1.2 TSI SE after 3 years for a new 1.4 FR ( I'm old so insurance isn't a problem !! ) The 1.2 is great engine, good power and torque for its size. Good consumption too, my average was usually around 47mpg. On a long run on the motorway down south, it recorded...
