    Extended warranties from SEAT.

    Is the SEAT warranty extension scheme worth the money? Just been quoted online £173 for 1 yeats full cover. I wouldn't have considered it, but both my most recent SEATs ate turbos at around 2 years old, and as I'm not in a position to get rid of the current car, I'm worried it could happen to...

    MPI - No thanks!

    Just driven 30 miles in a brand new SEAT Ibiza FR which looks great in black, and the interior is mostly nice and it handles and rides well, although the steering needs to be less sensitive. I didn't know it was only an MPI when I got in, and even though I'm only used to a 1.0 TSI, I nearly...

    Toledo vs Leon vs Ibiza

    Well, this afternoon (fora variety of reasons) I've pretty much done an impromptu group test starting with about 40 miles in my Toledo, then 50 miles in a brand new Leon, and finishing off with 40 more in SWMBO's Ibiza. To be more specific that's a Toledo TSi105, a Leon TSi110 and an Ibiza...

    Sports springs and 18's

    Just back in country, and I want to make the car look a bit sportier. Has any one had fitted the Eibach 30mm lower springs or the H&R 35mm? If so, how much was the total cost, and how is the ride subsequently? Also probably getting a set of 18inch RS6 reps with a suitable offset (planning on...

    Lighting Upgrades

    I'll soon be back in the UK after 5 months away and straight on to night shift most likely. From what I remember the lights on the Toledo are a bit pants (well a lot really) for my 30 mile country road commute in the dark. Has anybody upgraded the dips and/or high beams, and what bulbs do...

    stop-start doesn't

    My TSI 105 is fitted with stop-start - but it rarely works at all. 9 days out of 10 nothing, the next it cuts the engine at every junction like I expected it would. To be honest it activates so infrequently I'm always surprised when it happens. has any one else had this issue?
