Mixed experience with my Ibiza. The positives are it's stylish to look at, easy to drive, comfortable and spacious and a good sized boot. Downsides are, it needed a new turbo almost immediately, it's had two recalls since new, the total mileage stopped showing when driving, but shows when car engine turned on and there was no mileage recorded in computer.

Cheap feeling gearbox, plasticy interior and not all that economical - I'm lucky to get 38mpg.

Tell us what you think about your car?
This is our second leased Seat Ibiza and we will have another one in March 2024. My wife and I really love this car; it returns amazing MPG when we make long journeys and has been very reliable. Probably the best car we have had in over 40 years of driving!
What's the one thing you like most about your car?
Great MPG on long runs, well equipped and easy to drive.
If you could improve one thing, what would it be?
The MPG when driving short journeys, and the infotainment system can be annoying as it often fails to reconnect to my mobile phone through Bluetooth.
