Used SEAT Alhambra (Mk2, 2010-2020) review - What do owners think?

SEAT’s reliability reputation could be better, but there are no concerns over the Alhambra’s safety

Since its launch in 2010, the Alhambra sold in low numbers, so it didn’t appear in our Driver Power surveys. Unfortunately, SEAT’s dealers don’t have a great reputation, though, and have consistently placed in the lower half of the Driver Power dealer survey. That's a shame when you consider sister firm Skoda is a consistent high flyer in the same polls.

Reliability

There are signs of a recovery, with SEAT finishing 15th out of 29 brands in our 2021 Driver Power survey of car manufacturers. Although this is lower than Skoda (12th), SEAT finished higher than Volkswagen (17th) and Audi (23rd). There’s little to no risk associated with choosing an Alhambra over a VW Sharan.
