I'm in the final stages of changing to a new company car and the SEAT Leon FR 170 is high up the list.

In choosing the spec I'm struggling to track down some example pictures of the car I'm interested in. I've got pictures of a FR in white with the 18 inch ibera alloys, however I interested in some pictures of a white FR with the black 18 inch Orion wheels. Obviously my imagination or photo shop skills cannot combine the two.....

Anybody assist?

Wow so you would rather drive a car that looks like cr@p than a car that looks common but ok????

The second one doesn't look crap though IMO. Looks menacing

Mine's the same as that white one.

I ordered it well over 2 years ago so I personally take the credit for starting the white-cars-are-cool trend cool You're welcome!

Had lots of postive comments about it. Black wheels would be nice, but weren't an option at the time.

Thanks for the opinions. I must say I'm starting to hesitate on the Leon. I don't wish to offend any owners but I'm thinking it looks a little chavvy. This is offset by it being really good value for money. I'm trying to decide between the leon in white (as previous picture) and a 120d SE (poverty spec) for an extra 50 per month (over 4 years).

So chavvy white or bland shoe car?

Just bought an 18month old Cupra 240 in Zenith Grey with silver 18" Orions.

Makes a nice change from all the red & yellow ones about.

Pictures are in my profile- can't post them on from my mobile.

Picked the car up today, and I am impressed with the pace of it- never really got the chance to rag it on test drive.
Well chuffed with the level of performance, I'd have likes a 1 series, but the boot was rediculously small.
Have to say, for not a lot of money, more performance is on offer from the likes of REVO.

Some SEAT dealers will even remap your car- being authorised dealers, say it won't interfere with the warranty- unless it's stuff like turbo related.


Worth concidering if you can sneak it past your boss wink

ETA- the second one is the new facelift model- with slightly different dash.
I don't think it looks as nice as the earlier MK2s, IMO they've buggered up the rear lights & bumper.
