1995 Seat Ibiza CLX review from UK and Ireland
"A nippy, reliable car, at a bargain price"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I have driven over 20,000 miles in this car with no problems.
The timing belt was changed at 75,000 miles, but this is normal.
General comments?
This car is surprisingly quick for a small car.
It's handling is far superior to that of the Volkswagen Polo, Ford Fiesta or the Toyota Yaris.
The cabin is quiet, roomy and comfortable for a car of its size.
It is a solid car, which gives a real feeling of safety. This is due no doubt to the fact that it is built on the Volkswagen Polo Chassis, even though its' ride is much more responsive.
Overall it is a safe, reliable and nippy car, far out performing all of its rivals, even it's cousin the Volkswagen Polo.
