I dunno if this has been done before but who would win it. Would the ibiza blow the leon away because of weight difference etc. What do you lot reckon?

short answer yes.

but it won't blow it away, just have the edge IMO

 

[mpm1987]

yes, easily, ibiza starts with more power, ends with more power, and is slightly lighter

I think the bizza would win a standing quarter by a couple of car lengths, maybe 3

I know which one I would rather be driving though!!

Same engine so surely after map they're same power?

I agree with thebeno (fark!) though I wouldn't like a Beeza on the motorway and you also get more for your money when buying a family car and not a shopping trolley.

Looks like a roller skate imo.

I used to have a leon fr tdi with revo and now have an ibiza cupra tdi with custom code. Both have there good and bad points. I much prefere the handling of the Ibiza and the standard kit it comes with such as AP brakes and seat sport intercooler and very good. I do prefere the overall look of the leon but feel the ibiza is much more driver focused. Some people say the ride is to firm but I like this. My remapped ibiza feels considerably more capable than the leon esp at top end. Both great cars and I do miss my leon but love the ibiza. Its good to say I have owned both.

I always drive my beezer on motorway and have no problems at all. Find it comfortable. Also had the leon fr and found that bounced about and rolled.

PD160 is cheaper than PD150.
