2017 Seat Ateca 1.6 TDi Xcellence 5-door SUV manual
Description
So, I’ve been keeping this car for a few years now — it’s one of those reliable, solid everyday SUVs you don’t want to miss out on. It’s a 2017 Seat Ateca 1.6 TDi Xcellence with a 6-speed manual gearbox, and it’s been properly looked after. Painted in neat nevada white metallic with anthracite leather trim, it’s got that clean, modern look without being flashy.It’s done about 120,000 miles and I’ve kept it well maintained — all services are up to date, the MOT is fresh, and everything’s been checked through properly. It’s not just about the miles though — it’s how it drives. The engine feels smooth, the handling’s on point, and there’s no roughness or weirdness at all.
Inside, it’s spotless. No wear, no scuffs, and the cabin smells fresh. The seats are comfortable, the climate control works well, and the touchscreen navigation is easy to use. I’ve got Android Auto and Apple CarPlay set up, plus DAB/AM/FM, CD, Bluetooth, USB, voice commands, and even a wireless charging pad. The reversing camera is a real plus when parking — and the sensors help a lot too.
It’s got all the safety stuff: ABS, ESP, front and side airbags, curtain airbags, and even a stop/start function. The headlights and fog lights are LED, the mirrors auto-dim, and the wipers sense rain. Front seats have height and lumbar adjustments, and the rear seats fold down easily with isofix points. The alloy wheels are solid, tyres are good, and the paint’s shiny with just a few small chips — nothing major.
I’ve also kept it tax-compliant — only £195 a year — and it’s ULEZ free, so no issues in London or any major city.
I’ve had it serviced and checked over properly, and it’s been fully valeted before I put it up for sale. It’s not flashy, not overpriced — just a solid, practical SUV that’s been driven well and maintained properly.
It’s based in coldstream, Scottish Borders, so if you’re in the area or nearby, I’d be happy to set up a viewing. I’m not pushing anything — just sharing a car I’ve used and loved.
If you’re interested, just give me a call or text. I’ll get back to you and we can arrange a time that works. No pressure, no hassle — just a real, honest look at a car that’s been trusted for years.
P.S. I’m not a dealer — I’m just someone who’s been around cars long enough to know what to look for. I’ve had cars for over 30 years, and this one’s one of the ones I’ve kept for myself. If you’re thinking about something practical, reliable, and well-equipped, this one might just fit.
Let me know if you’d like to see it.
