If you look really hard in the engine bay you can almost see an engine in there - must be 1.2 version.
Rear visibility is going to be shocking with those tiny back windows so parking sensors had better be an option
For a 'sporting' brand its about time some Cupra style photos were surfacing by now as the low end models whilst functional aren't exactly going to set the juices of their core market flowing. I asked the guy in the Spanish dealers if they had any speak previews of the Cupra or images and he said he had seen nothing to date.
I'm kind of thinking beyond the badging its almost lost a SEAT identity. There are bits of SEAT'ness in the side profile a la Leon/Altea, but generally speaking its become a bit of a Far East look-a-like.
The rear looks like its gonna be a touch claustraphobic! Interior looks better but don't like the styling and don't like the fact things like the back of the lights aren't accessible for maintenance.
I've just looked at the image with the stereo in it and I'm not sure the apearture would accept double DIN height-wise. Bit of a $h1tter as if ever I got one I'd want to change the OE HU for an Alpine double din.
As they offer a Tom Tom bolt on which sits on the dash when plugged in, I guess the need for the double DIN Nav unit with touchscreen / hard drive is out the window. Maybe the ratio of Ibiza's sold with Nav didn't make it worth it.
