An incredibly clean SEAT 131L. I know it’s just another Fiat 131 variant, but it’s just so clean.

Up next,a SEAT Fura L. Again, scary clean. Look at that dash, it’s so Star Trek!

Finally, the SEAT I do know I want, but can’t import yet. The Cupra R.

I’m currently writing cover letters which, while necessary, is not a basket of fun.

I’ve never been a fan of SEAT but the current Leon Cupra 290 does look really good to me.

Yeah, SEAT and Škoda both have better styling than their VAG platform mates IMO.

So true. VW are more stade and neutral. There are nice VWs such as the Scirocco where the equivalent would be the Leon I guess. The Scirocco looks fantastic but the Leon has those sharp angles that catch your eye. Skoda doesn't have anything in that segment of stylish 3 door hatchback as the Skoda Rapid Spaceback looks like an old Audi A3.

Yeah, and the Up! is by far the best looking vehicle on its platform.

I’m not a fan of the ‘gum-shield’ on the VW but the Mii and Citigo look too similar and not all that inspiring. If I was to go for something smaller than a Leon, I’d have to go the for Skoda Fabia Monte Carlo.

We can safely conclude that that 131 is living in a dry climate.

Or wait until 2018 to import this.

The Seat Ibiza GTi.
