My new whip! Seat Ibiza Sport
Discussion
Hi all
Been a long time lurker with the odd comment here and there.
Me and the new wife just bought a 2007 Seat Ibiza 1.4 Sport for a not unreasonable £6000 (after loads of hassle from Motorpoint Newport)
We love it, i rate the handling (although i have limited knowledge of a good handling car) and build quality. It really puts a smile on my face when i hook up a few corners. The missus, in true girly fashion, likes the colour and cd player. It feels solid and put well put together. The engine is the weak point though, in hindsite we should have gone for the diesel.... the 1.4 is nippy at best, but even that is generous. We have done over 1200 miles in it in 3 weeks, so it needs a bloddy good clean, hope you like
As seems to be the way at the moment, below is a list of current mods and planned ones.
Current:
CD player that plays MP3's
Planned:
Buy a Fiesta RS1800 or RST to use as a track car
