I have one. Personally I love it, alot of people say they are dull. Personally I like the fact I can go round corners at quite silly speeds and not worry about dieing.
All in all its a great car, quick, comfy, good spec, reliable.

tis just a remap. as far as i'm aware the 210 and 225 are the same, just a different std map ie the 225 is running slightly higher boost as std, both will remap to 265 bhp.

210's and the 225's both map up to about 260ish bhp
I was thinking of getting one start of next year but it's pretty much the same as what i have now but with 4wd and a bigger transmission lost

Rob - TBH the s3 is a fair bit different! It is so much more classy and luxury! I love ibiza's but the s3 is in a different class tbh.

i know!
But iu think the cupra is still hot hatch where as the s3 is more executive sports!
It's like comparing a modeo to a jap x type!
