| I think it's too new to the market for there to be much to comment on,
other than as you say, the reviews look favourable, and I too think it
looks good.

| There is not much in common between today's IBIZA and the previous
model.
Today's car is basically a VW design from top to bottom. The previous
IBIZA was a slightly modified FIAT RITMO. Given that the original RITMO
platform and components were disastrous in terms of road handling, the
SEAT version could not improve much and in fact the SEAT was worse than
the FIAT. The only thing of interest was the engine (designed by the
Porsche Weissach labs) although I must say that the good old twin cam
Fiat engine was certainly more interesting, but ... royalties ... etc
Sorry for the digression. Nothing to do with the shape which is very
much a personal taste issue.

| For UK viewers RITMO :== STRADA (Remember the ad - built by robots,
driven by ***)
Oh and wasn't there another ad, sort of an "Italian Job" ripoff or am I
thinking of something else ?
