Seat Ibiza 1.4 3-door
by Tmwilson89
Looking for a car to wow not only you but all your passengers as well
So finally I could afford to get a car that didn't look like I bought it off my grandma, and the one that grabbed my eye for sheer quality was the Ibiza good stuff.
Comfortable seats, stylish interior and the ability to use my phone safely to talk, listen to ... music and use as a sat nav. The Ibiza came with an mp3 lead which enabled me to use my iphone to play all my music, it was simple to work just plug it in and bam.... My playlist started... I also was seriously impressed with the quality of the Bluetooth hands free. Just press a button to the left of the stearing wheel and a lady asked me what I wanted to do, it was as simple as "call mum" and next thing you know it's dialling, the voice recognition was spot on and was so clear.
The outside of the car is shaped like it was built to impress slick and the metallic paint was the icing on the cake, with the option of different colours, and a free sat nav and iPod I couldn't go wrong, drives like a dream, super efficient and cheap to run I couldn't recommend a better car :)

Seat Ibiza 1.4 5-door
by naidy
I have a 57 plate 5 door 1.4FS Ibiza.
I bought it pre-registered so saved over 1/3rd off the ticket price as it was the old shape and they were about to launch the new version
After having a KA previously this car is pure luxury. The driver, passenger and 2 back seats are half buckets so you feel supported during a ... long drive (i drive over 600 miles a week!). The steering wheel column is adjustable so you set up is more refined (i'm quite short so this is a bonus for me!)
I've had the car 4 years and done 60,000 miles and as I have kept it fully serviced, apart from the obvious new tires, oil change etc. It hasn't needed any additional work on it to date.
In saying that at its next service it is due a new cam belt and that is gonna set you back approx £250 (unless you know a guy who can do you a better deal) But then it has to be done otherwise I'm going to end up stuck on the M5 somewhere knowing my luck!
For the price I paid I couldn't ask for a better car, it fits my needs. It isn't the flashiest car but it suits me fine.
The only downside is the lack of room in the back seats. But then I don't sit in the back so it doesn't really worry me! I think it#s just my friends that grumble when they scramble in.

Seat Altea 1.9tdi Stylance
by Kirst264
In October my partner and I decided it was time to upgrade our car to something a bit more practical to accommodate our 1 year old daughter. Having driven smaller cars for most of my driving days I was a little nervous when the Seat pulled up in my driveway! However, it is a great looking MPV (which is more than can be said for a lot of ... them), with a smart interior and plenty of visibility. It comes with handy little extras like cup holders and a sliding parcel shelf. The boot is extremely spacious and easily fits the pram and shopping in.
The engine is a little bit noisy, but if like myself you do mostly dual carriageway driving then it's not a problem and you soon tune it out. This car is fantastic on the fuel, I get around 550 miles to a tank of fuel which makes it very cost efficient and as I do a lot of miles I am very thankful for this, and the cruise control!
My favourite part of this car is the parking sensors! As this is the first "big car" I have driven I was very nervous about parking and misjudging the space and having a bash! But with the parking sensors I am very confident and it makes driving this car even more enjoyable.
