And a 150, unless you are only talking of the ibiza?
What whels and body kit does it have? might be able to help you identify it.

Hey

Thanks for the reply. I am still new to this forum so any good advice will be cool. Where can I upload any pics ? I will try and get some pic's of the car on here so you guys can help.

Its a Seat Ibiza 1.9 Sport "52" plate in Yellow. Seat Alloys etc...

Few odd things are going on though. The dealer is not sure and is no help. There has only been one HPI Check on the car and that says its a 5 Speed !!!

Thats right gets more confusing, the car has defo got 6 speed. I really wanna know what the heck it is because its making me mad.

Here is a link to the pic of the car

If you know the REG, try putting that in an insurance quote online (directline for eg) as they normally tell you the make, model and engine size with bhp figure at the end.

all Direct Line confirmed was Seat Ibiza 02 Onwards 1.9 TDI SPORT 3D ........ THATS RIGHT "3D" What the heck does that mean ? lol

Do i need to wear 3D Glasses to find out the finer details of this car. Thanks though, they qouted me £310 fully comp. Might take that up.

God knows what 3D is, but if it was a cheap enough quote then it was worth the effort to find out.
Going from the pic i would guess it's a 130bhp model. Its defo not a Cupra TDI 160, and if its 6 speed i think it must be a 130. Its not an FR as it doesn't have the platinum mirrors, so it must be a sport?
:shrug:

yeah, I agree. Im thinking more and more that its a 130.

On another note my friend,

I was thinking of maybe getting a body kit. Now I dnt like over the top (Cuz i think the Seat bodies r sweet as they go but I was planing maybe a cupra front valance and rear.

How easy and where could I go to get those items ?. I know this local body and spray garage. Would cupra kit fit on ok. I ve seen a lot of Ibiza TDi with cupra body kits on.

I think a few people on here have done it, but i have no idea where the best place to get the original kit would be. I imagine a dealers would garauntee genuine parts, but not likely to be the best price.
Try a breakers?

Cool, im gonna look into the breakes and find out some prices from the real deal SEAT to compare.

know much about the built in Seat SAT NAVS? any good ?

Not got a clue, but i bet they aren't as cheap as a Tom Tom wich can be removed from the car and updated!
They are normally an expensive option (over £1000 if i recall) so god knows how much to retro fit.

OK, to confirm that 3D means 3 door (god you guys are stupid :p)

Your car is a 52 plate TDi Sport, PD130 6 speed.

It should have a red Di badge on the back with a silver T. and you might even find inside next to the rev and speedo it has a voltage and oil temp gauge, as the earlier models seem to have come with these.

Great little car, and the engine should last forever :)

And just to be 100% sure, look at the white sticker that's underneath the boot carpet, somewhere it should have the engine code "ASZ" on it, which means it's a PD130 engine :)

You guys are great ! thanks for the support T.SPARK and muddyboots. Joining the forum was the best move i ve done online lately.

ok ok fair enough I should of realised 3D stood for 3 door.

You know thats why I joined because (3D Door aside lol) I hope to learn more about my yellow hatch back through the people with the know how. So thaks again.

Oh I will pick the car up on thursday 09/08 so i ll check those details then.

Many Thanks

P.S. Davey, I fond a Tom Tom One XL for 130 on ebay. Will do some further investigation. I ve had a look at Halfords site, not bad.
