...but how much upfront?
Big fat ZERO for me...and 10,000 miles, no maintenance, on a 3 year deal. And including the VAT as it's on a personal lease.

Good luck, we had terrible trouble trying to get a Leon Estate from Seat, eventually we gave up and swapped to an Octavia. That was at the beginning of the year when they were switching models so supply might have improved by now.

Should have hung in there and got the £250 cheque from SEAT for making you wait...
Sister in law and her other half liked their Nissan Qashquai so much they have just bought a second one and now have one each.
Your budget might just get you the new shape, which I understand is a sportier drive and the 1.2T is better than the 1.6 n/a it replaced. You have a commanding driving position without the 4x4 drawbacks.
I know that 4 doors needed and two strollers but why is everyone saying a hatchback......There are much bigger family cars out there for 10 and if space is key then and estate must be better than a hatchback....Stuff like the 3 series touring and the like.
Because Saloons are a PITA to get things in and out of especially strollers. Even a 5 series has a very narrow access for high sided items like folded buggies etc.... Why have a 5 series running costs when a Golf would do? BMW are class leading but a 5 series executive saloon isn't a family car.....end of.....
Yep, you need Ho-Yin to explain the reason(s) why he still has the focus....
I give up
My wife's 3 series touring had more than enough space in the boot for two pushchairs and a all sorts. Far more than any golf sized hatch back....and her E60 Touring was just huge in the boot.....never found a problem with it. Lots of good estates out there for 10k that have far more room than a golf or Astra or focus....but as you say running costs will be more so suppose it's about what suits best.
