Jon was excellent throughout the process, and really worked hard for me. There was a small price discrepancy, as the “in stock deal” on the website only indicated the price for a base model without any additional options, which was not actually possible to order - which I felt was a little misleading. However, Jon worked up a deal I was happy with, and communicated very well throughout the process - including following up with some issues after delivery. I will definitely use again.
Yeh, good service a bit of headache filling forms couple of times but turn around was very good and with the maintenance cover it’s peace of mind.
What's great: I'm now driving a lovely Lexus at a far more affordable price than I could find elsewhere. My contract includes a full maintenance deal which isn't always available with other providers. The sales process and arranging the finance was a good experience, with lots of support from Dave. Thanks Dave! BUT ... Once the contract had been agreed, communication was terrible. I was told that I would get access to the portal (which is the only way to track progress) 'shortly': it took 2 weeks and multiple phone calls and emails (initiated by me)to gain access. Promises to phone me back were not met. In the end, Dave sorted it out. Thanks Dave. The portal looked promising as it appeared that I could track my car's journey from the factory in Japan to delivery. However, apart from me uploading identity documents to it (not acknowledged until I got in contact), the portal did not change except to put my expected delivery date back a month (no explanation). Then out of the blue, the Lexus dealership phoned me to say that my car was ready for collection. This was surprising as the portal located the car in Japan, and gave me a bit of a dilemma as I needed to get rid of my current car at very short notice (anyone looking for an Audi Q2?). Nothing from Select Car until I contacted them to say where the car was. Their failure to contact me was apparently the Lexus dealership's fault in some way ... which I find hard to believe to be honest. I made the decision to collect the car rather than have it delivered, in order to get a proper dealership handover, which I was told was fine. Only nothing happened until I phoned Select Car and was told that I had to arrange collection directly with the dealer. That was news to me, but I did it, and was then sent regular emails informing me that my car was due to be delivered to my house on that date. A few more phone calls followed to sort that out ... Maybe I just had a poor experience. Maybe if you go for a car that is in stock rather than a factory order the process might be smoother. At the end of the day, I did get my car at a good price and within the original time frame, so on reflection I've changed my rating from 3 to 4 stars. But it was a frustrating journey which some joined-up communications at Select Car would have made a happier overall experience.
About the BYD Seal 6 DM-i Touring estate
The Seal 6 DM-i Touring represents BYD’s first estate car to be launched in Europe - and it offers an affordable leasing alternative to much pricier rivals from the likes of Audi and BMW.
A 500-litre boot is close in capacity to the Skoda Superb Estate plug-in hybrid - with the Skoda renowned for being one of the most practical family cars available.
The Seal 6’s boot expands to 1,535 litres with the rear seats folded flat while there’s excellent legroom and headroom in the rear, too.
Meanwhile the BYD Seal 6 DM-i Touring’s frugal powertrain delivers fuel economy in excess of 55 mpg while also offering an extended EV driving range - which lags behind some competitors but should still be ample for most.
The ‘DM-i’ suffix, by the way, stands for ‘Intelligent Dual Mode’ - as the PHEV system combines the refinement and responsiveness of EV driving with the flexibility of a petrol-electric powertrain.
Why lease the BYD Seal 6 DM-i Touring estate?
The Seal 6 DM-i sits in BYD’s range alongside the fully-electric BYD Seal and the BYD Seal U DM-i SUV (the latter of which is also a plug-in hybrid).
But the 6 DM-i Touring is the first model in the Seal family to get an estate body shape and it’s the one you’ll want to lease if boot space - all 1,535 litres of it with the rear seats folded flat - is at the top of your wish list.
Both the BYD Seal EV and the Seal U-DM-i SUV offer more power and pace than this BYD Seal 6 DM-i Touring, so if you want performance you might want to look at those models.
Instead the Seal 6 DM-i Touring is built for covering long distances with efficiency and comfort in mind, and all variants come well-equipped as standard.

BYD Seal 6 DM-i Touring estate Frequently Asked Questions
The Seal 6 DM-i Touring is a plug-hybrid estate - a so-called ‘Super Hybrid’, according to BYD, with its ‘Intelligent Dual Mode’ powertrain offering the best of all worlds when it comes to petrol convenience combined with an EV driving range of up to 62 miles on a single charge.
There are, essentially, three trim levels with the BYD Seal 6 DM-i Touring; Boost, Comfort and Comfort Lite.
The Boost trim features 17-inch alloys, vegan leather upholstery, a 12.8-inch touchscreen with wireless smartphone connection, and a reversing camera.
The Comfort grade adds a larger battery, more power, an extended range in EV mode, and extras such as a larger 15.6-inch touchscreen, a panoramic roof, and heated and ventilated seats.
The in-between Comfort Lite level features the same powertrain and tech as the range-topping Comfort trim, but makes do with the smaller 12.8-inch infotainment screen.
A 1.5-litre petrol engine is mated to a battery and electric motor. Boost models are equipped with a 10 kWh battery while Comfort variants have a larger 19 kWh unit. Power varies between 184 PS and 212 PS, depending on which model you choose, while acceleration is a brisk but not explosive 0-62mph in around 8.5 seconds.
The EV driving range of the BYD Seal 6 DM-i Touring varies according to the model. Entry-level cars with the smaller battery can travel for up to 31 miles in EV mode, while the Seal 6 DM-i with the larger unit can journey up to 62 miles using electricity alone. That’s not as lengthy as the range of cars like the VW Passat or Skoda Superb Estate, but the BYD Seal 6 DM-i Touring sits at a lower price point.
The stated CO2 emissions for the BYD Seal 6 DM-i Touring vary according to the model. Cars with the smaller 10 kWh battery emit 60 g/km of CO2, while the BYD Seal 6 DM-i Touring in ‘Comfort’ trim with the larger 19 kWh battery reduces CO2 emissions to 38 mpg.
Entry-level Boost variants are equipped with a 3.3 kW on-board charger that can replenish the energy in the battery from 15-80% in 3 hours. The range-topping Comfort trim adds a more powerful 6.6 kW on-board charger which reduces that AC charge time down to 2.7 hours. The Comfort grade also introduces rapid DC charging at 26 kW, which supports a 30-80% charge in 23 minutes.
