Been and collected my car this morning and I love it! So much quieter than the Citigo I had previously!
FR Sport Collected!

I was lucky enough to test drive the FR sport 115 manual before I ordered my car and was impressed but went for the Xcelence Lux as I wanted the extra kit. I prefer the look of the FR so have ordered the FR’s fake exhausts to be fitted by the dealer and hope the handling is similar to the FR.
Yeah, that’s the one thing I’m slightly disappointed with, I’d spec’ed rear sensors and had hoped they had rear park pilot on the centre screen but I don’t think it does. I should’ve really done what most of you have, gone for the excellence and spec’d the styling kit.
Apart from that one niggle, I’m very happy with the car. Much more refined than my previous Skoda Citigo!!
That’s the first thing everyone says when I’m out and about, “lovely colour, it’s got a nice hint of blue in it”
I don’t think cornering fogs are turned on at the minute, if they are, I can’t tell. But the LED headlights, even around town are amazing! I’m very impressed with them!
I’ll have to ask the dealership if they can enable it somehow. Like I say, apart from that little niggle I’m very impressed. Digital dash is amazing, engines power is more than adequate and the LED headlights are spot on.
Afew more pictures:
On older SEATS factory fit parking sensors can be displayed on screen. Dealer fit ones cannot AFAIK. (We have one of each).
No, that's a good thing... I was asking because it means I now have one less job (turning them off via Carista) to do when I get mine!! I hate them!
Good to hear about the LED lights. We have a Leon FR Tech already and the LED lights on that I presume are very similar, they're light years ahead of standard halogens.
Our Leon, a 2017 facelift with rear sensors - doesn't display anything on the infotainment when reversing. I'd have thought park pilot can be enabled but I've never hooked it up to Carista to see.
Weird that. My 2016 Fabia with factory fit rear sensors (but no fronts) has park pilot on the display, as does my mum's 2017 Rapid and her previous 2013 Superb, both of which also had factory rear sensors.
I've a feeling that the park pilot display can be turned off somewhere in the settings, so it might be worth poking around!

So did my Citigo, it had factory fit rear parking sensors and displayed it on the centre screen.
The Ibiza’s are also factory fit. I did have a quick look in the settings for rear sensors and it only listed the volume, tone and lowering entertainment volume.
I have OBD11 but saw someone saying the car recognises and logs that you’ve changed settings so then the dealership could void the warranty. Best bets probably getting in touch with the dealer and see what they say.
