I had ordered one of the last new pre-facelifted ibiza's 3dr 1.2 SX in Black, now after much to-do and discussion about pre-facelift v facelift i went for pre facelift because of the price he offered and not a lot of solid information on the facelifted version, i was told there was only 1 pre facelifted black sx 3 dr left in the country, and that no more were being made so this was the only one i could get. Got a really good deal at £7800 free metallic & interior chrome kit. Then it turns sour - was suppose to be ready sometime next week, get a phone call today "really sorry somebody else ordered it at the same time and its gone to them so you can't have it", he was really apologetic and offered me two deals. He offered me a silver one - don't want silver, it must be black (personal preferance, no one will sway me) and in all honesty when you're paying out that much you should get what you want. Second option was he'd give me a rock bottom prices on the facelifted version, when i asked what rock bottom was he said he didn't know. Going down there tomorrow to speak to him. Now i've looked on this site and the new stylance spec is coming up at £8995, what kind of deal would you lot consider to be the "rock bottom" of that, plus theres the issue of the loss of alloys from SX to Stylance which i think is nuts. Any advice on how to get every last drop out of him? I am gutted but i do like the facelifted version a lot over the older one, so maybe if i can get a really good deal perhaps its a blessing in disguise.

Well, i just bought a facelifted 1.4 Stylance in Black with mats, alloys (£325) & luxury pack 1 (auto wipers, volumetric alarm & backup horn, mp3 and steering wheel controls and height adjustable seats - £270) for £9300 thats a total saving of £650, not bad though my previous deal was better, but what can you do, lol. Just gotta wait forever to get it because of all the options, was given a date for the end of april, but nothing certain. For people who want to know the preview brochures are at dealers now, lots of info and pics of interiors on all models in them with full price lists and options aswell, they said they'd got them the start of the week.

thanks, lol. Well not quite all - there were curtain airbags and a sunroof left that i could have had, lol. When i asked they said they'd had quite a few orders for the new one, i'm sure i'm not the first.

My mum bought a black pre-facelift SX about a month back. Very nice car and she got a deal because of the new registrations coming out. Sure you'll love it mate and you have some nice added bonuses there over what the SX has.

Oh and black is the best colour, looks mean and sporty.

I meant first on this forum!! As Cupra Kid said black is a very nice colour IF kept clean!

My old 1.2 SX was black, and have to say I think it suits the car very well, makes even the iccle 1.2's have a sporty edge to them!

We want piccies tho asap!

Its easy to post piccies

Just sign up for a photobucket account, and then link them (url etc) on a post!

Easy peasy! What mods are you looking at?

ok thanks - won't be looking at mods for a good while - main reason - money. Not sure what to do after my account looks a bit healthier, will have to have a look once i do finally have the car.
