| DRIVING RATING: |
 |
All Arosas get power steering and light controls. Visibility is excellent, a decent driving position is easy to find, even if you're tall, and, to cap it all, the Arosa is tiny. All in, this makes it one of the very easiest cars on the road today to drive and park. Up the speed a bit and things still don't get difficult: the Arosa remains stable and composed, even at motorway speeds. Er, not really the point of the Arosa, despite Seat positioning itself at the sporting end of the VW Group. Because of the ride's compliance, the Arosa rolls quite a bit in corners and washes out early on its tyres (they're built for comfort, not hooning) while the steering offers little communication. The 16V Sport is better - firmer, grippier - but it's still not a patch on Citroen's Saxo VTR.
