Morning All,
Well what a great start to the week. After only 8500 miles in the Ibiza Cupra R, I now need a new Ignition coil. The car started spluttering and felt like a non turbo. Sounded like a fully modded scooby though, just without the go.
After all I have said about Newbury Seat, I had no choice but to take it to them on my way to work. I have to say that I was a little happier with them this time, as perhaps the 'real' problem appealed to them a little more?
Andy again was a diamond. Told me straight away what the problem was and that it was common around 8500 miles on the Ibiza Cupra R's and that it would probably be ready for lunch time. The lady on reception was nice enough to me, but I still got a strange feeling when I entered the building. It felt like I wasnt supposed to be there because I hadn't bought the car from them. Surely they all work for the same company and any work is done under warranty and therefore charged direct to Seat? Correct me if I am wrong.
Only problem was, as it was short notice that my car was there, there was no courtesy car available until a week today.
I will keep anyone interested posted of the outcome.
Cheers for now
