SEAT Altea Freetrack 4 diesel 2008

This is a 168bhp diesel that is very comfortable and well equipped with loads of storage room. Great for families and it works well off road and on. It normally runs as 2 wheel drive which helps economy and its Audi developed 4 wheel drive system works seemlessly to give extra grip when required. I used it in the recent snow and with its enhanced ride hight and wide tyres made easy work of the hills in my area that had other 4x4 vehicles abandoned. You can accelerate hard in the wet from a stand still using its mountain of low down grunt and it just takes off on full throttle without any slippage or fuss. It has a DVD player front and back, satnav, bluetooth, an auto option on the lights. Its great on the motorway as there is loads of power in the low revs and it will pull hard in top from 1500rpm all the way to its top speed of 128mph. Its a very relaxing drive that leaves you fresh at the end of a long journey and I think this is because it maintains very low revs so you don’t get the vibration that can intrude with a petrol engine. It returns about 40 miles per gallon with normal driving. I am very pleased with it.
