General Comments
I bought my Seat Ibiza FR 1.9 TDI PD 130 about 6 weeks ago now. My previous car was a 1.1 Punto, so as you can imagine, it was a bit of a shock to the system, not to mention the right foot when all the torques kicked in. Inside it isn't to bad. Its fairly dark but the chrome pack lifts the interior a bit. FR badges are everywhere and the racing style chunky steering wheel is spot on. The seats are very comfy and again, have big FR badges on them. And what a god send the climate control is. Performance wise, I couldn't ask for more from a diesel. The turbo kicks in at around 1700rmp and goes right the way through to 4000rmp. On the motorway, 75mph in 6th and your doing 2000rmp. 500 even 600 miles from a tank is possible driving carefully. If your after a bit more performance, you could always re-map the car from around £500. This would get you into the region of 180bhp and 300ft lb+ torque but it is advisable to upgrade the clutch to avoid clutch slip and breakage. Also with this you will need to up grade the brakes aswel so that you can stop. All in all, this is a great car with stunning performance and the looks to match (17inch alloys look lurvly on the car).
