Okay, so you had to put up with an interior that was notably less attractive but in the way it drove it was pretty much identical. Backgroundįor about as long as many of us care to remember, a SEAT Leon Cupra was a cheaper way to get into a Golf GTI. As a one car solution, this one's got legs. It can get to 62mph in well under 6 seconds, return around 45mpg, seat five and, thanks to recent price cuts, prices start from no more than about £30,000. There's a choice of hatch or estate, plus the option of 4WD. Looking for something fast, practical and which won't send you to the wall financially? The mighty SEAT Leon Cupra could be the answer.
