The model
Read full Seat Ibiza reviewThe Seat Ibiza excels in its driving experience, being sharp and precise yet composed and comfortable. It’s a great choice in other areas too, thanks to a roomy interior and low costs, especially if you opt for our recommended 1.0 TSI 95 engine and SE Technology trim. The Ibiza has an Achilles' heel though – its poor reliability score in our latest survey.

See full equipmentIf you don’t want the sporty looks and driving manners of the FR models, you might want to opt for Xcellence trim. This gets you keyless entry, rear parking sensors and a faux-suede seat upholstery.
The engine
See full engine specsThis is the most powerful engine but the boost from 94bhp to 113bhp is pretty minor on paper – and it feels like that in the real world.
