Advantages: reliable, nippy,
Disadvantages: little room in the back seats
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.
Summary: A great car for a great price
