Just as Citroen recently hived off DS to become a standalone brand, SEAT has done the same with Cupra – up until now a badge to denote performance cars in its range. First up is a badge-engineered version of the Ateca SUV, but it will be Cupra’s second model, the Formentor, that sheds […]
The SEAT Ateca has won the inaugural UK Best Used Car Awards staged by leading online automotive marketplace, CarGurus.
