Ive taken a liking to them recently. A lot and considering it soon. So obviously I would like the 1.8 20v turbo is it? Do they make a Cupra? People seem to be clued up on here for Ibiza's so some general knowledge, feedback, advice would be greatly apreciated! And some awsome pics if possible. Cheers lads.

Do a search lot of mixed views.

I personally think they are a disgrace to the term hothatch.

In the MKIII the 1.8 20v T is the cupra version and theres the cupra r version to which has Brembos and a few more extras. Easily modified for extra bhp's

Cupras are very very nice cars and the engines are very tunable.

IMO - one of the best hothatches in recent years

i test drove one jay and liked it, was a decision of either that or the let corsa, only ended up doing the corsa coz of working at vaux. But they are well specced with half leather, modern inside and look good on the outside too, 250bhp easy enough...

Better seats, 40bhp more, and a bigger price tag, due to only 75 of them been in the UK.

Ave had one for the last 3years now.

Mines handles great, does 13.61 1/4 with 262bhp and 266lb/ft

Drive one n make your own mind up. Some like them some dont.
