1995 Seat Ibiza Salsa review from UK and Ireland
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Nothing major - a couple of niggles which the dealer sorted under warranty (dealer is very good). Never fails to start and has never broken down. Not bad considering 35,000 miles in just over 2 years - most of that around town so it gets punished.
General comments?
An amazing car - very good all rounder. Great around town (not to big) but large enough for touring. Well built, and very nippy for a 1.4, with good low down power. Can be a little heavy on petrol if pushed, but with such a good drive, you can't help pushing!!. Group 4 insurance, and a 20,000 main dealer service is about £110. This is my second new style Ibiza, and I am awaiting delivery of a 1.4 SXE Ibiza in Jan 98.
