Ibiza IV 2008 | SEAT | Car Reviews

SEAT Ibiza (2008 - )

Fine riding, handling and commodious small car, reasonably priced, engine range gradually improved.

Slightly firm ride.

VAG has finally come up with a new floorpan that's the equal of the class-leading Toyota Yaris.

And the first car you'll find on top of it is the very pretty, spacious and comfortable new SEAT Ibiza.
