Is the Seat Ibiza Fr a good car?
Hi, just wanted some opinions on whether this sounds like a sensible car choice for me.
I’m a 19 year old girl (nearly 20) and this is my second car. I’ve just ordered a brand new SEAT Ibiza FR in black which arrives in about a
month.
The deal is:
£2,000 deposit
£251 a month
48 months
Around £7k balloon payment at the end
6,000 miles a year allowance
For context, I only did about 7,700 miles total in 3 years with my current Fiat 500 Hybrid, so I barely drive loads. Mainly just work, gym, seeing friends etc. My longest drives are usually around an hour max.
I wanted something newer, safer, nicer to drive, and still reasonable to run/insure at my age. I also wanted something that feels a bit more grown up than the Fiat without being stupidly expensive. People who own or know about Ibiza FRs:
Are they reliable?
Expensive to maintain?
Good for young drivers?
Does this finance deal sound decent or bad?
Anything I should know/watch out for?
Thanks :)
