Just weeks after its debut in Geneva, Seat is already taking orders for its new Mii three-door city car.

With prices starting at £7,845 on the road, UK deliveries are scheduled to begin in June.

This basic S 1.0 12V 60PS model emits 105 g/km of CO2, while for £9,180 the start/stop and energy recovery systems in the Ecomotive 1.0 12V 60PS cut emissions to 96 g/km, low enough to avoid road tax and the London Congestion Charge.

The most expensive model is the SE 1.0 12V 75PS auto at £10,390, while the £9,980 1.0-litre 75PS Sport boasts front fog lights, dark tinted windows and 15-inch alloy wheels.

Product manager Simon Bradley said: “I am very excited to announce details of the Mii 3dr's pricing and generous specification.

“Clearly the city car segment is a very price sensitive area and to have our great-looking new car available to order now means that we are very confident about its potential in the UK.”
