Similar type thread on the leon section, thought it would be interesting to find out what people drove before there ibiza, and the reason you changed.

Try to include a photo,

Post to present

I changed due to wanting something with more power, plus i do a lot of sitting in traffic commuting so fancied an auto
 
I had a T reg red 1.6l Pug 306, which was driven hard and it had 3 grand spent on it in 2 years to keep it going. Shopped it in on the scrappage scheme for the Boc. What a difference and boy am I a happy bunny.

Life with the Boc is great, well now the cops don't pull me over just to look at the car.

Haha,

Bet coming from that makes you appreicate the boc that little bit more.
 
My previous car was a very sluggish 58 plate 1.2 Vauxhall Corsa that HATED hills! The Ibiza's 1.2 tsi engine is worlds apart and so much nicer to drive that I actually enjoy driving again! In fact I've just taken Candy out for an hours drive tonight just cos I wanted to! Loving the Ibiza so much! Been driving for over 20 years now and had so many cars, so I'll just post pics of the Corsa and my rather lush Ibiza that is now 6 weeks old!:D

'Dee-lia' the Corsa D!

My Half caged Clio 172 Cup - I sold it because it was getting pricey to maintain; and I was getting a little more grown up

Leon V6 4motion. Mov'it breaks, KW coilovers, stabilizers, strutbraces, semi's, custom exhaust. Pretty much trackday ready and then sold it because I wanted something new and I loved the new VW Polo, but when I went to go and have a look at the dealership I saw a Bocanegra IRL. The white, the black nose and it all looked great. So got me one of those. :)

Before that I had a Seat Ibiza Cupra R, custom intake, Supersprint downpipe + catback and chip.
And other wheels and mirrors. (

Before that a Corrado G60, engine completely redone and tuned, loads and loads of other stuff..Awesome machine.

I had an M Reg Vauxhal Corsa 1.4 for 3years then decided to scrap it as was costing to much to maintain and i got an Ibiza 1.4 Sport
 
I had this....

Fantastic car, bought it new in 2003 had it for six and a half years. But as my mileage has gone up from 4500 miles a year to about 16000, a diesel made more sense.

Still miss the Leon though :(
 
Only digital pictures I have!
