SEAT Ibiza (1999 - 2002) 1.4 Chill 3d (2002/02) Owner Review

What does this car say about you?

Smart, stylish, sporty.

What do your friends / family / neighbours think of the car?

Friends love the car, say it is stylish, smart, sporty, like a Golf GTI.

Would you buy this car again and why?

Would definitely buy this car again. Economical, stylish, fun, practical.

Toyota Aygo.

Type of dealer you bought from?

Didn't buy from a dealer

Did you buy this car new?

No

What price did you pay?

£3,300

When did you buy the car?

April 2006

Did you get a good deal and why?

I got a good deal as the owner had got a good deal on a new car and just wanted to get rid of the car at a couple hundred more than the trade-in price they had been offered.

Is there any special reason why you bought this car?

I wanted a VW Polo but all the used ones I saw were either over-priced or in poor condition. The Ibiza Chill was more stylish then the 2002 VW Polo. The one I purchased has full dealer service history, one owner, low miles, good price.

What was the dealer like?

Bought from the owner of the car, not a dealer.

What's it like to drive?

Very easy to drive, very nippy which is good for overtaking lorries or pulling away at traffic lights. The seats are comfortable and supportive.

What's it like to park?

Very easy to park, good visibility.

Have you had any problems with the car?

Nothing has gone wrong with the car, it is brilliant. I have just paid for new tyres, cam belt change at 60,000, brake pads and discs.

What's most practical about your car?

The back seats fold down, giving quite a big space for transporting large items bought from ebay.

Favourite gadget, option or accessory?

Love the air conditioning, alloy wheels are smart, metallic paint looks good too.
