What to choose 
I really like the Astras, but I know the Seat will be better build quality and marginly quicker.
I also think the Astra would be cheaper.
Discuss.
Any other suggestions?

Astra looks nicer, SEAT means you'll be in Steve's gang, which is bad.

I think its going to come down to money in the end 
I really cant choose between them but as about half of the car will be bought on finance, the cheaper the better

If I could pick up a half decent 225 for 8k that would make decision easier.

yes. i dont like the back of the Leon, not keen on the way the roofline goes all the way to the back.
and yellow is not gay.
