8/10SeatLeon Cupra£17,645 – £33,040Not as cheap as you’d expect, but still one of the best hot hatches on sale.
8/10SeatAteca£18,455 – £31,335A first-time entrant from Seat that feels like they’ve been practicing for years.
7/10SeatAlhambra£25,435 – £36,065Seat’s most complete car. It has no real weaknesses – but we just know you’d rather have the VW…
7/10HondaJazz£13,900 – £18,610Not sexy, not fun, not a heartstring-tugger, but by gum is this a clever car. Brilliantly fit for purpose
7/10SeatLeon ST£18,640 – £34,035Only the interior isn't as good as the Golf. Beyond that, there's not a lot to split the Leon ST.
7/10HondaCivic Tourer£18,590 – £25,165The Civic Tourer’s all about one thing: space. Want more than one thing? Consider a Golf Estate.
7/10HondaHR-V£19,105 – £26,665Not as good to drive as we hoped, but the interior design and space makes up for it. Solid effort
7/10SeatIbiza£12,905 – £18,080If you need a roomy supermini this is about your last stop before a Honda Jazz. But it lacks the involvement of some older superminis.
6/10SeatLeon£17,645 – £33,040Seat’s strongest car in a long time, the Leon is now a Golf-baiting player.
4/10SeatToledo£16,475 – £21,915A Seat that takes the brand back to its roots, the Toledo is unassuming but able.
