Mk2 leons are nice on the exterior.. But inside they are not the nicest places to be sitting in a traffic jam.. If your only going to be sitting in it, then it has to be nice on the inside.. If I was you and keeping it in the Seat family.. I would go for an exeo.. They look amazing, and go like stink..

Exeo would cost considerably more than a Leon plus there are not many on the used market. Also, I agree about the interior, but at least it is solidly built and is a huge leap in terms of quality compared to any Ibiza!

couldnt afford an exeo and too big for me, am only a wee fellow lol. like my hatches.....yeh well i have sat on one before and think the dash is kinda high but the quality is better than the ibiza. i will test drive one and make sure i feel comfy in it before i buy one. im still set on derv but dont know if i will be making the correct choice.

yeh true. the leon is a solid build and they look great. will see closer to the time.

I dunno, the original mk2 interior doesn't look much different to the mk4 ibiza, yeah its slightly dull but i'm sure it can be improved. plus the facelift mk2 leon is really nice inside, looks very similar to the mk5 ibiza and the exeo

The inside of an Exeo is very very similar to sitting in a 7 year old Audi A3/A4... :think:
And there's plenty of them around... :D

IMO after after a Seat ibiza a mk5 golf will be boring for Scott they are everywhere and everyone and his Dad has had one! I am not just saying this Scott but at your age you are going to have to pay alot for insurance for at least another 3 years and the price of petrol is never gonna go down lets face it and road tax is now so cheap on diesels I think you are making the right choice as not a decision to be taken lightly. I am really not just saying that cos I drive a diesel I don't care what others choose to drive but just being serious for a moment. My road tax actually went down by £10 last year, I have a sporty hatch that is now even faster cheap tax and good MPG and good looking car all win win, petrol is all just loose loose ATM unless you can afford 2 cars so use it for fun/less. I would like to have a petrol car again one day but can't see it happening for a long time.

think on the radio surround part and on the vent rings would look good, however the vent rings may be difficult! how much did this stuff cost you?
