Bkling 2nd Gear October 8, 2016 Share October 8, 2016 Haha, just joking bro. Yep, good to have competition and to compare. Hopefully VCS will buck up and Seat will be around for a long time, don't end up like Skoda. No issue as it also does not benefit me as I already placed order with VW couple of weeks ago. Now waiting the car to sail through Indian Ocean to reach Singapore. ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
KennethFokWaiKit 1st Gear October 8, 2016 Share October 8, 2016 Saw the picture of the Toledo on sgcarmart. The specs look ok. There's auto aircon, cruise control, multi-function steering with bluetooth, touch screen radio. Torque is rated at 230Nm which is only slightly below the Caddy 1.6TDI which i'm driving now. I think this car can kill the Jetta Trendline as the Jetta's specs are quite lousy. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carbon82 Moderator October 8, 2016 Share October 8, 2016 Toledo is one size smaller than Jetta. To put things in perspective, Toldeo is the size of Polo Sedan and the same as Skoda Rapid. On a separate note, I sincerely wish Seat can stay forever in Singapore, as it is a good brand, and deserve a place in local motoring scene. 14 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Macrosszero Turbocharged October 9, 2016 Share October 9, 2016 Also depends on your time horizon for owning a Seat - if you intend to own it for ten years, no problem, the profit margin delta is what you take to the bank, but if you want to change it in 3-5 years, you will suffer in trade in value. But that's no different from VWs being given rock-bottom tradeins right now though. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soya Supersonic October 10, 2016 Share October 10, 2016 Hmm 170,000.... Sharan going for 165,000For that price, might as well get the Sorento turbo diesel w AWD wif all the bell & whistles, backed by a longer warranty + C&C reputation and still hv alot of spare change left... 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lchong 4th Gear October 10, 2016 Share October 10, 2016 140K is attractive enough to go for Alhambra. The new sharan facelift actually change very little thing only. Consider this, customers looking at the sharan and alhambra will also consider the Estima and Odessy. If and only if Alhambra can match their Japanese rivals in price and specifications then they will have a chance of surviving. Remember that the pricing is as important as the specifications. SEAT is no Audi, where people are willing to get a skeleton. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Westguy 2nd Gear October 10, 2016 Share October 10, 2016 Does our local variant of the Leon come with the nice angled DRLs? Looked at the sgcarmart photos and doesn't look like to me. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
vbchia 1st Gear October 11, 2016 Share October 11, 2016 140K is attractive enough to go for Alhambra. The new sharan facelift actually change very little thing only. I suspect that it would be priced at around $130k plus with a promotion for a limited period, depending on the strength of the euro and the specs they bring in. The road tax for a 2.0 diesel won't be cheap though, about 2k I think per year. For someone who lives in the East and works in Tuas, this will be earned back easily but higher mileage means higher maintenance too. Two sides to every coin. Looking forward to the Ateca SUV............. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
7hm Turbocharged October 11, 2016 Share October 11, 2016 Does our local variant of the Leon come with the nice angled DRLs? Looked at the sgcarmart photos and doesn't look like to me. Depends on whether we get the LED headlamps. The one you see here are the standard-in-Europe LED headlamps and it's probable that we aren't getting those standard. ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
