    Seat Arosa 1.0
    by Anthony Potter

    I have had a used Seat Arosa 1.0 R-reg for a year and am delighted with it in all respects. True, it is a cheaper VW Lupo, but in my opinion its understated looks are more appealing for over-thirties like myself (35).
    The best bit is that the accessories I have bought for it (dog-guard, roof-bars, service parts etc) from my Seat dealer have been 25 per cent cheaper than the same parts for the Lupo. And they are exactly the same - the dog-guard came in a box marked 'Dog-guard for Arosa/Lupo'. So, all you Lupo drivers, pop into a Seat dealer and save money.
