Seat, was "RE: BMW almost made the New Scirocco, why can't VW?"

["ian" <e@sbbs.se>]

I thought Seat (Say-at is how I grew up in England pronouncing it) was
originally a Spanish manufacturer, bought by VW, it was always a somewhat
lower quality vehicle than VW.

I just noticed this new brand name yesterday while watching the Rally
cars on the telly. The brittish anouncers pronounced it nothing like its
read, AKA I read it "SEAT" like something you sit on/in. They pronunced
it, "say-eat".

Anyhoo, is this an offshoot of VW or whats the deal. Anybody know?
