    Great for modding! Very rare on the modding scene and doesnt need much spent to outshine saxos, Fiestas, Corsas, Novas, Astras, Almeras etc.

    Pretty basic, but comfortable seats and lots of room.

    Problems

    Engine

    Runs well once warm. Got 90000 on clock though and it's telling.

    Other

    Clutch is very stiff. It's an Ibiza characteristic, but takes a lot of getting used to. Be prepared to look stupid stalling at cruises for a bit.
