yeah I’ve been looking at the Leon, 184’s aren’t very common and often not spec’d well. 
 

I seem to change my mind everyday, Volvo is winning today. 
 

I was thinking of keeping the 135i for a year, then selling and getting an ID3, but now someone wants to come view mine lol

Seat recently did a thing where the model has [ez] after it so the FR spec is sealed in and you cannot add any options.

 

so whatever the brochure says is what it gets.

 

the new black edition ones are not too badly specced though.

So my about for a new 1 series was a good one? I should be a personal car shopper! 

 

Nice choice.

yeah maybe lol. It’s a crazy rare spec, active cruise and adaptive suspension are rare on a 1 series. 

Tried adaptive cruise on the Countryman for the first time at the weekend, very odd sensation.

 

Works well when the traffic is smooth not so much when some myopic 50 mph driver strays in front. At least when the detection range is quite far out.

I’ve had a play with a few active cruise control cars recently. The Volvo V60 had lane assist as well and would keep you in the middle of your lane, that’s was very odd!

 

I like the idea of the car doing the work when I’m stuck in traffic, which is why I wanted a car with it.
