    Hi Guys,

    I've just bought a new car (seat leon) sport up and have put quite a bit of extras into it. The one type of extra I wasn't sure whether it was worthwhile or not is parking sensors. Those of you with this car... how do you find reversing/parking and would the parking sensors be a worthwhile investment?
    If you have parking sensors on another car... were they worth it ?

    i wouldn't waste my money; parking sensors are the most annoying thing you can put in a car - beep, beep:mad:
    just use your mirrors and look over your shoulder, they're cheaper extras!:D

    I have them on my rodeos, they are good, especially as my dept perception isn't great (according to Dublin Bus). They came with model I got though, their not something I would buy as an optional extra.

    priceless, best thing I've ever had in a car, regardless of size of car if you see a spot you think might be big enough, squeeze her in there, they've got side sensors, front you just know when that tree is going to do damage, they're excellent.

    They are good but you can come over reliant on them.

    forgot to mention that, it gets very very strange when you have to park a car without them.

    I think they're only about 50 nicker. I'm thinking of getting them myself, as my car is covered in bumps and scrapes (my gate has about three inches' clearance on each side as I drive in).
