Does anyone know if the overall size of the 5 door Ibiza is bigger than then 3 door? The reason I ask is that my Cupra is in the garage the now and I have been giving a 5 door 1.6tdi courtesy car for the moment. Lots of things I have noticed so far. The first being that the boot space seems to be a lot bigger than my Cupra. My Cupras boot space is tiny. My battery is inside the spare wheel in the boot for some reason which looks like an after thought as they have polystyrene inserts to raise the floor bed to give the battery clearance??. The tdi however has the battery in the front and no spare wheel. I don't know if it is because I have a battery and spare wheel in boot that makes it look so much smaller than the 5 door or if its because the 5 door is actually a bigger car? Anyone know any better??
Another thing is both have similar mileage but my Cupra rattles like mad inside (prob to do with stiffer suspension). Also what I prefer is when I push the accelerator from stand still the car actually drives unlike my Cupra which seems to have a delay which is quite scary when at junctions to be honest. Don't know if this is a characteristic of the car or a fault? Anyone else experience this?
