Maybe both models are low (compared to the standard or SE spec).

Well, they don't look low! If that's low I'd hate to see the normal height. Pretty sure they're not lowered. Only people I've ever heard say they are lowered are internet dreamers.

Well you only have to drive an SE and FR back to back to know that one rattles your fillings more than the other. :)

I'm glad I have the stock suspension. Handles nice, rides smooth. If I had a 1.2 TSI SE or I-Tech I think that would be my ideal Ibiza.

When you talk about the FR suspension you really have to specify which version. I drove a 2014 FR and wasn't impressed. Ride was very harsh yet still gave to no clue as to how much grip you had, Also seemed to break traction very easily. The 2016 FR I've just bought is very different. still nowhere near the feedback from the wheels that I would like but it's better, the ride is still firm once you get motoring but is very good around town. It's a much better balanced car.
