Enjoyed this review, great to see a 9/10 rating for a practical family car. I assume the Golf GTI could achieve just as high a rating given the mechanical similarities? Maybe better handling with the smaller body but more expensive I assume. The similar Leon Cupra possibly trying to get too much power down for it's front wheel drive with the Seat interior probably not quite as nice as the other two.
SteveF many thanks. Leon CUPRA - you're spot on with too much power through the front wheels, however, the new 4Drive ST (ua-cam.com/video/Y8STfmrmMRw/v-deo.html) version is stunning and scores the same as the vRS. Golf GTI - yes it's dearer but that added quality does give it the edge, just. ua-cam.com/video/O6oO1uRFyVM/v-deo.html
That driver's seat leather that is already wrinkly says a lot on why you shouldn't but affordable car with "luxury" options. Cloth will look better and last much longer.
Driver's Seat Good news thanks. I know off topic but shortage of Mini reviews that reflect fact it competes with Golf / Octavia on price, not superminis. As a car lover been "following" for a while. Fine videos, your channel deserves lots of new subscribers.
SteveF many thanks and very much appreciated. Always looking to fine tune and improve reviews and videos so it's great to hear suggestions. Thanks for getting in touch.

Thumbs up if you agree this is better looking than the Golf R wagon.
Genuinely good looking wagon. Great review.Keep up the good work son.
😀👍
Great
I got the first generation Octavia Vrs wagon in India. Still gives most cars on the road run for their money.
Thanks looking forward to getting mine in few days!
Heathy and helpful dialogue made this video worth watching and interesting!
Another Great Video Review and my favourite Sporty Estate Car
Top man, cheers Jamie Pickles
Im so gutted they changed the front. I had my eye on one for 12 months. Settled for the Leon ST FR instead.
Driving that car in white over here in Belgium will give you a lot of lit up brake lights as the police have these cars.

A quick question, what is the width of the drivers seat, in cm?! Up where the scapulas are? Many thanks
Great review..
Richard Wernham very kind, thank you
never even knew this car brand was a thing! seems to share so much with Volkswagen
Matthew Dosier that’s because it’s owned by VAG and built on the VAG common platform used for the Golf, A3 and Octavia.
"BILLIANT" to drive - LOL ! Sorry - great review - I'm picking up my VRS wagon this weekend (it took a while to get to Australia)
Great review. Brought a 2020 facelift Wagon in Meteor Grey, absolutely love it!

Fantastic car
Great review. Out of this and the cupra Leon what's your favourite? I have a Vrs but thinking of going with a cupra st next
I’m guessing from your picture that you made the swap! How you finding it? Is it worth the extra money? Cheers
Dan Wright love it 👌🏼
@@davidcupra4913 Did you had on any of them the DCC? If yes was it worth it? I like a softer suspension
Any chance of a 5 door Mini Cooper review? Maybe irrational but can't shake off the feeling it offers driver appeal and quality.
SteveF hopefully soon. We're working with Mini to get something in place.

@@lanehogger1532 😁😁😁
I cant decide on vrs 245 estate or leon cupra st300, both are working out similiar money on lease. Which would you pick?
VRS the cupra has a chocolate gearbox especially if you are planning to map
