:) It's strange how the Ibiza TDI 130 has evolved over the years.I've got one of the last Sport's (04 plate).If it didn't have the red DI on the back,you wouldn't know what it was,in fact only those in the know actually do.(like us on the forum!)
Then you look at the 1st FR,looking sportier with the few tweaks,exhaust pipes etc.But still quite understated.
Then the latest incarnation.Virtually unregonisable as the same car.Spoilers,wider wheels badging etc.
Looking at some of the standard 1.2's,1.4's these days,even they look sportier than the Sport!.I sometimes wonder why Seat made the original so plain.Spanish sense of humour?.[B)]

Cheers the for invite mate, sound like a good un so i'll definately try and make it down. If you and any of the other guys are interested theres also the regular KeyneOnDubs meet at Caldecote lake by the Caldecote arms pub which your all more than welcome to come along too aswell, theres a few regular seats but nothing on the front of what you seem to be offering!

If ya fancy it then theres a thread for on edition here http://www.edition38.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=165012

Also getting a convoy upto Dubclique meet this sunday too which is here http://www.edition38.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=165058

Soz for going off topic there guys, i've pretty much got what I need out of this thread so if the mods want to lock it down they can feel free to :)

Ohh its local boys posting up for a local boy ;) Makes sense!

My first post was a list of threads in which this has been covered.

Its not a fact I brought up MORE search results as you, its a fact I brought up any. As I used the search button?

After you then replying saying you had searched already (as I did) I made humour (old people might not get this concept anymore ;) ) saying you must have searched the WRONG forum, as a search on this forum would bring up the answers you need.

However this :

My bad mate, I typed them the wrong way round but am aware dont worry, ive done my best to do as much reasearch pre posting as I know how annoying these posts are when they keep cropping up but had a flick through the pages and couldnt find anything.

Cheers for the copious amounts of link, got the info I was after lol.

With my reply of :

Did you search on the Corsa forums for the differences mate? Pages of other forums wont find the pages I found using the search button :)

Doesnt warrant :

Mate i know im new and all but theres no need to act like a total arsehole because I asked a question. Its not like this is never going to happen again now is it?

Have people losted that a happy smilie means happy? Clue is in the name me thinkies...

Lighten up everyone - it's Friday.

I thought TSparks corsa comment was quite amusing and the smiley did kinda suggest it was meant in a jokey way.

Chill peeps......

Good good, next question then, why are you asking? Thinking of purchasing either model? I h have the FR, however if I could go back, id spend half the money on a well looked after sport and then do what ive done to mine, save me a fortune!

Shut it junior :p :cartman: did i mention i've had all day off ;)

I can tell storming into the MK4 section and giving it all that ;) I'd have put ya down but afriad for your heart, might give up at any minute :D

New turbo?

Yeah decision made, its gona be a 130 sport as the "fr" is loads pricer just for the badge it seems, money saved on the car can then go on making it faster and handle better :D

:clap: Good choice!.You'll have to look far and wide to find a good one though.Not a lot of Sport's for sale.Good sounding one for sale in the 'for sale' section of the forum(D Cornish).:happy:

Yeah i'm checking out the classifieds and all of the internet as well speak, some very tidy and well looked after ones on the forum, I really want a jazz blue one which i've found one but its in Weston Super Mare. Got a week before I can sort out the cash though so hopefully a nice one will come up.

Agreed, saying that the light blue is also stunning, EdButler had a very nice example and it was bloody gorg when clean and the sun was out :D
