hi, I just moved from a Seat Leon FR130 to a Scala 150 SE with DSG The cars are about the same size externally, internally the Scala cabin is a bit smaller, but the boot is larger, which works for me. The controls are more reminiscent of my 2016 Leon FR 150, as is the power. Maybe the handling is'nt as sharp, but that's down to tyres mostly. The Scala is a softer ride and with D mode is an easy motorway cruiser. Price , a bit more than your budget, but not much, 6500 miles, <1 year ex demonstrator. Took me while to find it, still would have preferred a manual, but it seems they are no longer around
