SEAT launched the fourth generation version of its Ibiza supermini, but subsequently never stopped trying to improve it. The final set of revisions arrived in 2015 to carry this design through the final couple of years of its life. It's these 2015 to 2017-era models that we evaluate here as a used car buy.
History
The 'Sociedad Espanola de Automoviles de Turismo' - or 'SEAT' as we better know it - is well used to injecting a little life into the mainstream market. Its 600 model, launched in 1957, is the fun little runabout credited with putting Spain on wheels, over a million being sold to bronzed Iberians in just eleven years. Only when Volkswagen took control of the brand in 1986 though, did its appeal start to spread to the rest of Europe, with the Ibiza supermini the sales spearhead and this MK4 model, launched in 2008, generally acknowledged as the company's most competitive proposition yet.
A few years on though and with toughening small car competition, it was clear that a bit of a re-think might be needed to keep this car current. We got a refresh in 2012, then a more far-reaching update announced in the Autumn of 2015 - the one we evaluate here. This later package of changes brought an all-new 1.0-litre EcoTSI petrol engine and revised, more compliant suspension. SEAT reckoned though, that what buyers would really notice were the extra personalisation options, the smarter interior and the additional media connectivity. It was all just enough to carry this MK4 design through the final couple of years of its life. An all-new MK5 model made its debut in the early Summer of 2017.

A great review of a cracking little car. I own a 64 plate TSI I Tech with a 1.2 TSI engine, and believe it or not, it’s actually a great engine for this car and has plenty of low down torque (seems to really pull between 2/3k RPM), if you can find a well looked after model, you won’t regret it

Hello. I've heard there's problems with the rtiming chain with the tsi 1.2... I'd love one but this has worried me. Also ...does having a tsi engine cost more in parts repairs maintenance etc ?

[@brandonbuckley5390]

@@littlemissgroove I’ve only owned mine since December, so can’t really say much from experience. However from what I’ve heard, as long as you keep up with the required oil changes/oil filter changes, you’ll get more life out of the timing chain. So far, mine sits at 77k miles and has had a full service history, so far it shows no issues with the chain. Parts are naturally going to be a bit more expensive on a Turbocharged engine compared to a NA engine, but still aren’t drastically more than an NA engine of similar size. Only issue I have is with one of the serpentine belt pulleys (bearings are squeaking a bit), but I’m going to get it done through warranty.

@brandonbuckley5390 Hi. I've looked at a gorgeous itech tsi 1.2 but the insurance was too high so looks like I'm going to for for a boring 1.4 toca :-( If maintenance repair etc will be more than what I pay now I'll never be able to afford a tsi. I've just got an ageing 2006 1.4 seat ibiza sport. High Road tax but its been very reliable and not too high repairs etc. Love it, but too much going wrong now it's 16 years old ! Just need a car for nipping from A to B and don't drive much Thanks for answering 🙂

Hello, I hope you are well. Your channel and video content are very good. Also, the thumbnail design is very attractive.. I watch your videos everyday. I like your videos very much. Not only me but anyone who sees your video once will want to watch it again and again. But sir, although your videos are good, your video thumbnail, description and video tag are not SEO friendly. Due to which your videos are not going to people even after they are very good. So I would suggest you as your fan to make your video thumbnail, description and video tag SEO friendly only then your video will rank.
