I really like the Seat’s and am very ambivalent about Fords. I’ve told her I won’t have a fiesta or Focus unless it’s a Titanium X with all the toys.
yes I know I probably can’t be picky when buying a second car but the interiors of Fords and basic bitch spec of their lower models really put me off. I’m turning into Emp, aren’t I?
The 1l is a great little engine but if they have not been serviced properly they can have issues. The engine has a wet timing belt, bathed in oil. The belts deteriorate and clog the oil pumps which have filters in. They are not easy to get to and can be a big job.
I’ve driven the Ibiza and was really impressed with the engine. Not sure what model it was (1.2 or 1.4) but it had character and wanted to go, like a small terrier.
I have an ST so probably double the power but I still enjoyed the little Ibiza when we hired it in Spain.

....wife doesn’t like the look of the older models. FFS. Granted it’s not nearly as nice as the newer shape but if we’re looking to spend less, can’t really be choosy and it looks like it’s in great nick for it’s age.
That's worth bearing in mind when looking at s/h cars. If all 4 (5 ideally) tyres have a brand name on them that you recognise, preferably the *same* brand name, and a decent amount of tread left - that's a good indicator that they car has been properly maintained.
When you get different tyres on each corner, none of the names pronounceable ... walk - quickly - away.
Also chips are "Plant-based" no matter how you cook them.
You would still be installing the laminate flooring in your headquarters.

yes yes, I know I’d narrowed it down to a focus or Leon but just exploring all options.
Thats the sort of car some old bloke with dodgy taste, living in Wales would buy.
Positives: it’ll probably go on forever.
Negatives: it’ll probably go on forever.
