      Hi Luke. It was delivered about 3 months ago and I ordered the 1.5 litre 6-speed manual as well. It is a very smooth gearbox and there is plenty of power available when requested. Acceleration is smart when overtaking in the 50+mph range and I have never needed to drop down from 6th to complete a manouvre. That said, my previous car was the 2 litre 318bhp Cupra ST Tourer and that is admittedly in a different league. But the Formentor has proven itself as far as I'm concerned and no regrets. My 23 year old car-mad son loves it too. Plus the V2 is incredibly well equipped.
      Hope this helps.

    It was very useful presentation because I consider to buy exactly this model of Cupra! The presenter was talking like expert but at the same time like an "average driver" i.e. with very practical information. Finally, since I am not a native english speaker as well but know a little bit german, I enjoyed (and understood) every single word of presentation.

    I'm now driving a Leon estate and have aready started thinking about which car to choose next in 2023.
    I am hesitating betwen the new Leon estate, the Ateca and now the Formentor is also in the picture.
    Purely looking at the wheelbase and boot the Leon estate is a clear winner but the looks of the Formentor is also very tempting.

    overall, the car looks great…was looking for 1.5 v1 v2 review, which this exactly is..during the test drive the only thing i noticed was the tyre drone or hum noise, this could well be the stock Bridgestone tyres and not best b roads in the UK, but it hasn’t phased me on the purchase.but has left to wonder how it will fair on UK motorways..have heard a few owners say the tyre noise is excessive..but it wasn’t something i noticed, until someone mentioned it.
    Overall, The driving position, experience and seat comfort even on passenger side was very good! So cant wait to own it

Except if it had a total different design. It is the same case a kia ceed and xceed. As for the interior it looks a little narrower behind than the Leon, cause of the roof design. Also I am curious who is gonna buy the ateca if there is the formentor next to it?
