General Comments

I have owned my SEAT IBIZA TDI FR130 for neary three years now. It's generally a very good car, fast, cheap to run and insurance is pretty cheap too. Car has a nice 6 speed gearbox. I would buy the car again. As other reviewers, I have also had my car 're-mapped', it's now a true rocket when accelerating, can suprise some fast cars!

On long distance journeys I have been able to manage 72mpg average for the journey and it's not been unknown for me to get 600miles out of a tank of fuel (with a light right foot)

I believe the engine should run for a long time being a Volkswagen/Audi group product, the services can be expensive and the dealer support/help poor, but, you're not obliged to go to a main dealer once out of warranty.

The FR is generally a comfortable car, it can be let down by it's hard suspension.
