So what do you think - is the Seat Ibiza too much for the Fiesta to handle, or does the Ford still reign supreme?

@lapamful 6 жыл бұрын

From what Rebecca's saying, sounds like the Ibiza is somewhat underpowered, or that the chasis could take more power (with it's class leading handling in the corners). Dunno, I kinda like the Ibiza more now that it looks like a Leon. Maybe this would be worth getting for tuning. Then it might be more of a rival for the likes of the Fiesta?

@ronshephard9429 5 жыл бұрын

I test drove both and preferred the Ibiza. It's roomier, especially in the back and I liked the Ibiza's infotainment unit over the Fiestas. The Ford's unit looks like it's been stuck onto the dash rather than being a part of it. I ordered the Ibiza FR Sport.

@heritageted8335 5 жыл бұрын

Just had an Ibiza Xcellence 1.0 turbo... not underpowered in the slightest... scratchy plastics don’t bother me as they have to keep the price down somehow. Best value for money in the class by far!

@krish6519 5 жыл бұрын

Drove both back to back; the Fiesta's manual box was nothing to write home about and the handling was fair, on the level on a Hyundai i20. With the Ibiza, I didn't want to return it when it was time for that, I just wanted to go drive more. It's absolute fun to drive, goes exactly where you point it, and the manual box is excellent. After driving pretty much all the current cars in this segment, there genuinely is no competition for the Ibiza.

I guess you could sell me any car...a very nice presentation 😊 And yes, I went for the Ibiza because it looks sooo much better than the Fiesta which is a car that let you feel...well, a couple of years older than in the Seat. If you're feeling young, you simply HAVE to choose the Ibiza instead.

Why do people put their feet on the transmission tunnel when they sit on the middle seat in the back? Ofcourse it will feel small and cramped. I live in Sweden and I have never seen a Swedish person sit like that. We put our feet in the other footwells, One on each side. I remember a few years ago when we got some foreign People as guests and when they got into the back of the car the person in the middle put her feet on the transmission tunnel. I thought it was soooo weird. It looked like she was sitting in a small box instead of a Škoda Superb.

This car really is more than enough to be a daily driver of any person. 1 litre turbo petrol puts any diesel to rest, apart from mpvs of course.

@kadajawi6567 6 жыл бұрын

Er, no. It doesn't. I mean the engine. At 140 my 1.4 TSI consumes as much as a similarly powerful 2.0 TDI (in the same car) at 180-200. At lower speeds consumption of the 2.0 will be even lower. Those things are frugal as hell. You really need to treat those small turbocharged petrol engines with a feather in order to get good FC, and even then, a diesel will still do better.
