The yellow peril is shortly to arrive:

22053

Yes, the attraction of the Galant has fallen by the wayside, and V6 power has been shunned in favour of the 150PS diseasel!

And yes, she really did want a yellow one!!

And I quite like it too...

Mind you, 50mpg and £120 tax is fairly handy. Might be easier to get a towbar and trailer to bring the Leggie to JapFest!

I had one try to take me on a few weeks back , they are pretty nippy , but the leggy just laughed at it. Nice motors though!

It is a SEAT Leon FR TDI. Which is particularly yellow!

It's the same platform as the Mark IV VW Golf and uses the same 1.9 TDI engine.

But they are cheaper and better specced, though the pricing is more to do with badge snobbery!

Yeah, Mrs B would certainly appreciate the extra horses on the school run!

I've joined the SEAT forums, much bigger than CVR4 (naturally), but not a patch on it! Anyway, seems that one or two have upped the bhp to around 300 or so, without going too overboard on the mods. Defo a possibilty for a chip, although at least it is currently entirely standard, which is much easier when shopping around for insurance.
