Its actually the new Octavia thats due out later in the year, all be it with different body panels, but cheaper???? allegedly the warranty is better also, as allegedly its a 3 year unlimited mileage one, Skoda only do 3 years or 60K

Seat appear to be the car of choice for taxi drivers in Spain, and I've always said if you want to know what's a decent motor have a look what taxis use.

I don't think the Spanish version comes with an accelerator pedal fitted though, just an on/off switch as they always seem to drive at full throttle or no throttle at all ! :badgrin:
