The SEAT EXEO (2009-11) 5DR SPORT TOURER 2.0 TDI CR DPF 143 EU5 SE TECH 6SPD is a five-door estate, offering more load space than the Exeo saloon while remaining easier to park than a large SUV. In the UK used-car market, it sits among affordable, practical family estates, competing with versions of the Ford Mondeo, Volkswagen Passat and Skoda Octavia. With its 143hp diesel engine and six-speed manual gearbox, it is well suited to motorway commuting, regular long-distance travel and family duties, with useful boot capacity for luggage, pets or shopping. The SE Tech specification adds a more upmarket feel than a basic workhorse, while the Exeo’s restrained styling and comfortable, composed drive make it an appealing alternative to better-known estate rivals.
