I’ve got a new Leon FR 2.0TDI (150) which was an ex-demo with loads of extras and am pretty happy with it. What’s good : free revving engine with plenty of torque, great exterior styling with full LED lights, smooth ride even with 18″ alloys, good handling, very comfortable, practical, good economy (55+mpg) and cheap main dealer servicing. What’s bad : interior is pretty boring and although overall quality is OK there’s a fair amount of cheap plastic at lower levels, would have preferred the 184 engine (which has the multi-link rear suspension) but wasn’t available at the time.
Could have had a Golf GTD company car but it would have been standard spec without sat nav, leather, heated seats etc. I’m pleased with my choice but considering trading up to a mark 7 Golf GTi later in the year…
