Talk:SEAT León Mk1

The first generation of the SEAT Leon deserves to be in a seperate page other than the main page, just like it goes for example with every generation of the stablemate VW Golf.

It is an important car not only for the Spanish brand (since it reflects SEAT's transition into a new era under the Vag group, entering a new segment) but also an important step for the whole VW group (since it takes part in the adoption for the first time of a sole platform, ie the PQ34 one, from 4 different brands - VW,AUDI,SEAT,Skoda - and this has allowed achieving those economies of scale that drove to the economic prosperity the group enjoys today.

The facts mentioned could easily be clarified and enriched with many more details and references, something that could not fit in the main article of the SEAT Leon. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Groovion (talk • contribs) 01:44, 2 March 2010 (UTC)


 * The separate articles for each generation of Golf can be justified as there are now six generations, and to give a full description of each one would result in an article that would be too long by WP article size guidelines (see WP:SPLIT). As there are only two generations of Leon to date, this doesn't really apply here. There isn't much in this article that isn't already in SEAT León. I don't see the fact that it was based on the first platform that was used across the four mainstream VW Group brands as being enough to justify a separate article.
