THE eagerly-anticipated new Leon FR making its debut on the Kings Seat stand at this weekend's Wheels Motor Show will be priced from just £16,995 on the road when it goes on sale this month.

By offering such superb value for money, this dynamic new hot hatch looks set to follow in the footsteps of its top-selling predecessor. Unlike many of its rivals, the new Leon FR (short for Formula Racing) will be offered with a choice of 200PS petrol or 170PS diesel engines, the diesel carrying a £500 premium. Every Leon FR comes with a high level of specification, with dual-zone climate control, electronic stability programme and CD/radio with MP3-compatibility.

Also on the Kings stand will be a replica of the BTCC Leon racer and the paramedic Altea FR 170PS rapid response car donated to the ambulance service for the Fareham area going into service next Monday.
