Great

	The Leon's designers went out on a style limb - and we love it
	Does exactly what you want it to out on the road
	There's plenty of room inside for a quartet of six-foot friends

Gripes

	You'll struggle to get big bags through the boot opening
	The windscreen pillars are hard to see past at junctions
	Not as stylish inside as it is on the outside

Drive

We defy you to drive it without grinning like a loon and it's awesome on twisty roads

Reliability

It might not be the most sumptuous interior but it's built to last

Inside

Sensibly organised and allmost as stylish as some of its pricier stablemates - but not quite

Space

You can squeeze in four strapping six-footers but access to the small-ish boot is awkward

Safety

Excellent safety efforts: you get anti-lock brakes, high-tech driving aids and multiple airbags

Standards and extras

Even the entry level feels plush but upgrade and you get treats such as a leather steering wheel, alloys and sport suspension
