No manual no talk. Still another infamous DSG.

Let see if Vortex will bring in the manual trans Seat. BTW, most of the SEat are performance series, which are equipped with the 6 Speed Wet Clutch DSG, not the infamous 7 speed dry clutch...

 

This one shall give the Golf (and a bit far stretch, the S3) a good run for money... Seat Leon Cupra 290 (

If priced right and matched with correct engine, the Ateca should be on consideration for those looking at Qashqai.

Vertex has been in talk with Skoda to clinch the dealership, but not successful (as Skoda has TransEuroka in mind). So Vertex switch to Seat instead. Anyway both built reasonably good and "cheap" car/

I remember seating in my neighbor's Seat Malaga circa 1980s. Strong body and doors but whiny engine. But that was a long time ago

It's from Spain. I grew up riding in their cars until they exit from Singapore and I end up with Skoda. Now that they are back, I might move back to them.
