I don't suppose you have heard anything on the grapevine if the Ibiza will get the new 1.4 138 TSi lump going into the A1 and Polo GT? Thought maybe they would dump the 1.4 TSi DSG 150 for it later on this year?

Excellent - last I saw they had done it on the 5 door but not the 3 door.

Looks super cool

Any word on price at all? Guess it would be easy enough for a DIY fit.

The german forums say about E160ish each, so about £280quid

I've pulled out teh key bits from the german forum and put it in the FAQ

 

[J400uk]

Sounds agreeable, adding to my (long) list of potential retro-fits!

 

[markmeus]

Hopefully we can get a bit of a discount from David!

I take it that there is not need for any vag-com changes like the Leon needs, didn't see any options for LED tail lights in the Ibiza.

 

[nightflight]

there was some mention of something, i'll have another look tomorrow if i get a chance, viewing it in chrome makes life a bit simpler as it auto translates it to english for me rather than rely on my gcse german

 

[jordibravo]

If I understand correctly, the coding in VAG-COM is needed if yellow light came on but they also wrote that there was also option for this light - rear LED light in VAG-COM, were suprised

Interesting photoshop fail on the SEAT UK website

They have the climate control showing the radio screen!

 

[nightflight]

electric rear windows are a £155 option? wtf?

 

[markmeus]

I specced the closest equlivent to mine that I could. A 1.6 TDI FR with parking sensors, climate control, bluetooth/aux and technology pack. And it came to £16,880.

Now I'll admit mine is only a Sport, but as the FR has replaced the Sport this is the closest I could get. My Sport would have cost £14,250 and i got it for £12,250 with scrappage.

As I've said it's not like for like and I'm sure there'll be money off the list price but it still seems very expensive. If i was in the market for a new car now, I'm not sure the Ibiza would be on my shortlist!
