1997 Seat Ibiza Cupra Sport review from UK and Ireland
"A boy's toy"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Loose covers on the side skirts.
Loose clips on the door panels.
No mechanical faults.
General comments?
Love the car, but was looking for the F2 version.
Have customised the car a little, with an induction kit, a Superchip, a Remus back box and lowering springs.
This has improved the car's overall performance, but want a bit more really.
I would recommend this car to any hot hatch lover.
My Cup Racing has the rear spoiler off of the F2 version and also has the Cup Racing Sport stickers all over it. This looks much better than the standard Cup Racing I see around, but I have not seen the F2 version yet.
