I'm 27 and nw on my third SEAT and got to say i love them to bits.

Passed my test when 17 in my friends "N" reg 1.8 16v Ibiza GTi (130Bhp, Kiwi Yellow) They had only just brought out the GTi and the colour so it got looked at everywhere we went in it and the test examiner was horrified at the colour, she even triple check the docs to make sure i was insured!!!

My 1st Seat was a Kiwi Yellow Ibiza Cupra Sport 2.0 16v
2nd was a Leon Cupra R 225 in black
Current car is a Inferi Black MKII Cupra which gets alot of attention and mainly nods of rspect from others.

I have always gone between Alfa Romeo's and Seats and before getting the Cupra i had an Alfa GT 3.2. When i told my friends what i was changing it for they were horrified but soon came round after a blast down the local country roads!!!! After the hassle with the last Alfa its safe to say i won't be going back to them. I love the Cupra, The way it drives and the looks and the fact i've not seen a single other Cupra since getting mine 3 1/2 months ago.

Easier said than done, she had a 156 she loved, and now a 147 so she's used to living with an Alfa.

Thanks for your story I'll let her know.

Yeah i know what you mean i started with an Alfa 145 Cloverleaf which was mostly well behaved then had a break from them for a couple of years before having a 156 which i loved also, But the GT was A Beautiful car and theres no denying Alfa make stunningly beautiful motors but the GT was a nightmare and lost 7K in depreciation in a year!!!!

Good luck to her anyway but i would defo go for the leon, Having been down the Alfa road and delt with there sh1t service.
