2011 Seat Ibiza SE Copa 1.4 16v petrol from UK and Ireland

Summary:

Fun hatchback

Faults:

Blowing exhaust, brake disc and pads, usual mechanicals for mileage.

Looked after car, gets its oil change and belts checked on time.

Very minor cosmetic rust here and there, but it is 12 years old.

General Comments:

For a 2011 car, this Ibiza still feels as good as new.

Very sharp looks. Interior is also smart and stylish. SE model has lots of equipment.

1.4 16v petrol engine is nippy and does over 40 mpg on average. Tax and insurance are reasonable.

Handles very well. Ride a bit firm, but I can make long journeys in it comfortably enough.

Much more interesting than a Corsa or a Fiesta in my opinion, but an equally capable if not better car.

Ideal if all you want is a fun to drive economical car.

Would you buy another car from this manufacturer? Yes
