Hi all,

So, after a decade or so of driving sensible diesel family hatchbacks, I decided to get something a little more exciting. Divorce and cost of living have somewhat limited my budget, but I recall around 20 years ago I had a Seat Ibiza FR, little black car with silver mirrors. It was a lot of fun, and inspired me to get another one.

Meet my 2016 Seat Ibiza Cupra!

Really enjoying it so far and it’s a lot of fun to drive and quite understated considering how quick it can go!

Only minor complaint is it has the older style stereo, so no apple car play, so I need to work out where to stick the phone mount as it has different fan grills to all my previous cars.

I’ve filled her up with premium unleaded, I assume that’s a decent option for this sort of car?

Welcome to SCN, love your Biza as it reminds me of all the fun I had with my past Biza Cupras. PDI, Twinchargers had them all, great fast wee motors, enjoy yours.

Just returning the hello.

Regarding the phone mount, I'm using aa Brodit mount.
