Love how straight to the point you are. Most reviewers talk rubbish most of the time. This was some real meat and potatoes! Camera on the dash got a bit shakey though, might wanna look into that since it made the viewing a bit dizzy.

@ItsDanLatham 2 жыл бұрын

Thanks mate, glad you enjoyed it. I noticed the same about the camera, I think it was the poor road surface more than anything because its usually more stable than that. Will look into a more sturdy mount anyway!

I had a mk4 Ibiza as a first car was a tdi sport pd130. Mapped it not long after to 170+bhp and over 300+ of torque. Was really quick for a first car so will always have a soft spot for it

Bought an FR plus 110bhp (same as FR sport) last September after having 3 Peugeots (206,207,208 GT Line) and the for me the Ibiza pisses all over the Peugeots. Far more comfortable car. better handling, and a lot easier on fuel. Currently getting 55/ 58mpg from the Ibiza. Struggled to get 50 out of the 110bhp 1.2 208.

Thanks! I do quite like the beats system, its by no means high-end but it packs a punch and is well worth the upgrade if budget allows. Having a dedicated subwoofer takes the strain of the main speakers so the quality is better.

Great review just got a ibiza Fr from a gti 7 feels a big downgrade but for what I use it for around town it’s nippy smooth and quite fun to throw about looks nice too, wish I’d done more research and got the FR sport instead of the FR 95bhp! Wheels are better on the sport and get climate digi dash I only paid just under 15k though so not bad for two year old car!

Do you consider fr version as a sport car?? Or more like a sport look (especially 1.0 110hp)

@ItsDanLatham 2 жыл бұрын

It’s just a sport trim and their most sporty features. Its nippy but not fast. Unfortunately they did away with the Cupra which was the true sports version of the Ibiza. Most cars of this type have a ‘sport’ trim that doesn’t necessarily change the cars feel too much.

@katekaterina100 2 жыл бұрын

@@ItsDanLatham I agree with you that most cars of this type have a sport trip and not performance . I think only new fiesta st-line with MHV (and older versions) is something between the standard sporty looking version an the hot hatch version.

I don't know why, but in the last year it was going to be sold, Ford priced their Fiesta ST at squarely 29.000 GBP in Italy. it's surprising to watch reviews made in other countries say that the ST could be gotten for amounts close to a still ordinary FR 110bhp Fiesta.

@formentorvz5 2 жыл бұрын

It blows my mind that they are not making a Cupra version of the Ibiza. It would look amazing, they could also replace the fake exhaust tips with real ones but in the same shape. Considering the competitors, the Cupra Ibiza traditionally would be more in the direction of the sporty i20N and Fiesta ST rather than the comfortable Polo GTI -> no sale cannibalism inside the Volkswagen Group. I just dont get it.

@ItsDanLatham 2 жыл бұрын

I’m in a similar mindset, the only thing I can think of is that they are holding off for the release of the all electric Cupra Born, which will have around 230bhp in a similar sized vehicle. They are moving the brand over to electric as swiftly as they can, so maybe they just didn’t see the point in spending out on extra development for a ‘hot’ version. That being said, there was no cupra last time either, and with this new model they have even dropped the 1.5 150 option.

Ibiza is obviously going to be good if based on the polo. Just as always the polo has a better interior and the Ibiza has a better sportier exterior .I've had a new polo twice as a courtesy car. First was a non turbo hated the engine soo gutless and slow when you need to get a move on. Second one was a turbo version 90bhp. It may only have extra 10bhp over then on turbo but had soo much more torque. Wasn't fast by any means but acceptable for normal daily driving

I think Seat interior is far nicer, I find the Polo very bland. Just my opinion of course after driving both.

I know it may not help but i am going for the ibiza. I try to help with telling you my train of thought. In switzerland i can get an 150ps (about the same in ho) of the ibiza. it does not drink that much more in tests than the way more weak i20. the i20 n line is fun to drive but i really don’t understand the fuel economy. It drinks a lot of fuel and just feels cheap inside. But the bose sound system is. ice. The Polo is just way to expensive for what it does. In reviews there didnt seem to be more quality or better features to exist compared to the Ibiza. i hope i helped

Yeah agree, I'm no fan boy to any car brand really but its gotta be said that peugeot are knocking it out of the park ahead of everyone. Seat have got abit lost in the whole cupra thing and then made cupra electric only but cupra buyers can't afford electric and dont want electric. VW are in a mess recently, creating so many different brands, the ID and Cupra thing all just seem so messy should be one brand, different drivetrains, easy.
