The SEAT ALTEA (2009-15) 5DR MPV 1.2 TSI SS 105 EU5 SE 6SPD is a compact five-door people carrier, offering a more upright, practical alternative to a conventional family hatchback. Its modest footprint makes it easier to place around town than larger MPVs, while the tall cabin and flexible seating suit everyday family life. The 1.2-litre turbo petrol engine gives this SE Altea a useful balance for commuting and school runs, with a six-speed gearbox and stop-start system intended to help efficiency. It is best for small families or drivers wanting useful space without a bulky vehicle, and feels more distinctive than similarly practical Ford C-MAX or Vauxhall Zafira rivals. mycarcheck.com records 46 look-ups covering 18 VINs, with an average private-sale estimate of £2,200. Checked cars averaged 79,000 miles, around 4,000 miles annually, and 2.4 previous keepers. These figures offer a useful snapshot, not a guarantee for any individual Altea.
