Heres the DownLow. Im 18 i borrowed £2670 from my dad in order to pay for my Seat Leon 1.8T however now im not left with much money, and am thinking of selling it and purchising an ibiza 1.8T because they are cheaper, what are your guys views??
 
how much will the leon really get if you sell it ?
what are the changes in insurance costs ?
will you be able to find the right ibiza with the money you have left ?
the leon is a bigger car and its easier to get things in and out.
ibiza is a great 2 person car, yes it has a rear bench but its not much use!
 
I went from a seat leon cupra to an ibiza cupra never regretted it!
originally i did it thinking the ibiza would be cheaper to run......it is but i got the bug so its remap,coilovers,wheels and the list goes on

DO IT!!
 
Ibiza's are cheaper than Leon's? Don't think there's much in it.

Having had an Ibiza 1.8T - I'm glad I've had our time with the Leon. Far nicer car, and costs the same to run.
 
Yeah I'm thinking of keeping it seeing as its tidy and my passengers are on the larger side lol, at 18 like I could get insurance, got it on my dads company insurance got a quote the other day £10444. Ha just I kinds like the smaller cars like the polo etc. Ive only had this a couple months and yet let the car reach it's full potential. So I think I'll keep it for now.
 
If you've got a tidy one you can't go wrong. If you've not had it long I'm sure you will grow to love it.
As for it costing the same to run personally found I got better mpg in the Ibiza all day long
 
i have had both, keep the leon much much nicer to drive and more grown up.

also the stereo is the mk3 ibiza cupras are pure shite!
