Hmmm I would say your looking at a diesel still and maybe going for something about different than the usual diesel??
But as jordan said I think you will of got down on your knees and begged to come back to VAG

Very foolish
next time it's gunna be a text check!!Well it would be a PD130 engine but can't do the insurance on a Fabia vRS so don't think I'll be able to on an Ibiza FR - so thinking about a 100bhp sportrider as by the looks of it they have quite a good spec
Tbh, I don't know why you didn't stick with the 1.2 for a bit longer... Its not that bad!
My insurance will be £500 in a couple of months, and then next year I can get a Cupra for £600 insurance. Patience is a virtue as they say.

well guys....
found a few lovely ibiza's out there and also some dogs! found a 100bhp Sportrider 08 plate and also a FR 57plate
after ringing the insurance i got the following quotes -
Sportrider - £245 CHEAPER to insure
FR 130BHP - £120 CHEAPER to insure
VERY happy bunny at the moment so i may be buying an FR...hopefully.
However been looking at some specs and i didnt realise they made an ibiza with cruise control? been reading the spec of the Sportrider and it says it comes with it? error in the ad or did they?

How much is it then? I was quoted 1000ish for an FR, but I don't need a 1.8 at uni :/
Are you driving long miles to work/uni etc, hence needing a diesel?

18, and wouldnt get touched for insurance on my own so had to use me mother
not how i really want to do it but its the only way until im a bit olderstill chuffed though!!
So you're mum is going to be the legal owner of the car I take it? Plus doesn't that mean you won't gain NCB, aside from possible named driver discount with some insurers?
I know fronting is trying to be stamped out...which is why I don't like it but no other way.
Waiting for the finance to be agreed.
Plans are remap, air induction kit (any recommendations? Heard KN are good on the VAG PD130 engines) and possibly a front mounted Intercooler...maybe forge??

I wouldn't bother pussyfooting around with a K&N, get something decent like JR or ITG (much bigger)
JR on left K&N on right
And i also agree with rf860, Yeah you've had your focus for a bit which was nippy, but i bet a PD130 will be a little quicker.
Get used to the car for 6 months then remap it. 185bhp an 300lb/ft is a lot in comparison to your 1.2 that you were only driving 6 months ago.
